Welcome to Pure Mathematics

We are home to 30 faculty, four staff, approximately 60 graduate students, several research visitors, and numerous undergraduate students. We offer exciting and challenging programs leading to BMath, MMath and PhD degrees. We nurture a very active research environment and are intensely devoted to both ground-breaking research and excellent teaching.

Updates on flows of geometric structures

Aiming at a public with interests among Riemannian and complex geometry, Lie groups and parabolic PDEs, Iwill recall some results towards a general analytical theory for flows of H-structures, obtained with Fadel,Loubeau and Moreno. Then, as a concrete example, I will present some recent progress on SU(2)-flows on 4-manifolds, initiating a classification programme of ‘parabolic’ flows, based on a representation-theoretic methodoriginally due to Bryant in the context of G2 geometry, obtained with Fowdar.
