How do I use this calendar?

You can click on an event to display further information about it.

The toolbar above the calendar has buttons to view different events. Use the left and right arrow icons to view events in the past and future. The button inbetween returns you to today's view. The button to the right of this shows a mini-calendar to let you quickly jump to any date.

The dropdown box on the right allows you to see a different view of the calendar, such as an agenda or a termly view.

If this calendar has tags, you can use the labelled checkboxes at the top of the page to select just the tags you wish to view, and then click "Show selected". The calendar will be redisplayed with just the events related to these tags, making it easier to find what you're looking for.

 Speaker: Ralph Kenna (Coventry)

Title: Phase Transitions in the Growth of Groups

Abstract:

 

Groups of interacting nodes (such as research groups of interacting scientists) are considered as many-body, complex systems and their cooperative behaviour is analysed from a statistical-physics, mean-field viewpoint. Contrary to the naive expectation that group success is an accumulation of the strengths of its nodes, it is demonstrated that intra-group interactions play a dominant role. These drive the growth of groups and give rise to phenomena akin to phase transitions, where the relationship between group quality and size reduces. The hitherto intutitive notion of critical mass is quantified and measured for research groups in academia.
