Pure Mathematics Seminars
http://www.ma.rhul.ac.uk/~elsholtz/seminar/pureseminar.html
Note:
This term there is some cooperation with the CS department.
For example,
we have invited Prof Gutin to give a talk,
they invited Prof Cameron (Queen Mary).
On Nov 2nd there will be some lectures of interest to several departments:
their talk may be of interest to mathematicians as well,
while our two talks on graphs and hypergraphs may also be of interest to them.
For the details see below.
