Speaker Intro

Vladimir Markovic joined Tsinghua University and BIMSA in September 2024. Previously, Marković has held positions at Oxford University, Caltech, the University of Warwick, Stony Brook University and the University of Minnesota. Marković is editor of Proceedings of the London Mathematical Society.

His research interests are in low-dimensional geometry, topology and dynamics and functional and geometric analysis. Marković was elected a Fellow of the Royal Society (FRS) in 2014. He was also awarded the Clay Research Award in 2012, Whitehead Prize and Philip Leverhulme Prize in 2004. In 2016 he received a Simons Investigator Award.

Member Seminar Intro

The BIMSA member seminar is a weekly event during which researchers engage in discussions about their extensive research interests, addressing a diverse audience that includes fellow researchers and all postdoctoral scholars within the institute. This forum provides a unique privilege and an invaluable opportunity for each research faculty member, serving as a speaker, to introduce their research field, promote the subject within the institute, and ignite the potential for future collaborations with other research groups within the institute.

The lecture format consists of a 30-minute colloquium-style presentation, thoughtfully tailored to be accessible to postdoctoral scholars and researchers from diverse disciplines within the institute. Following the presentation, a 15-minute discussion session is anticipated, involving active participation from postdocs representing various fields.

It is mandatory for all postdocs at the institute to actively participate in this event. The enthusiastic involvement of faculty members is greatly valued and will prove mutually beneficial for both the speaker and the junior audience.
