VisitorsEach year, the UW Department of Mathematics welcomes many visitors. These visitors, who come for varying periods of time, teach classes and participate in our seminars and research. They make significant contributions to the life of the department. These visitors come from all over the world, and this attests to the international nature of mathematics and to the department's attractiveness as a center of mathematical research and teaching. Many visitors come for only a few days or a week, but some stay for a quarter or more. Here is a list of this year's long-term visitors: Tusheng Zhang (Autumn), visiting from the University of Manchester. Professor Zhang studies stochastic analysis and Dirichlet forms. Sergey Bezuglyi (Winter), visiting from the Institute for Low Temperature Physics. Professor Bezuglyi studies ergodic theory and topological dynamics. Vladimir Sharafutdinov (Winter), visiting from the Sobolev Institute of Mathematics. Professor Sharafutdinov studies differential geometry and topology. Nguyen H.V. Hung (Spring), visiting from Vietnam National University. Professor Hung studies algebraic topology. |
