Día internacional de la mujer matemática- Konrad Lorenz

Durante este día tendremos dos jornadas; la primera dirigida a mujeres estudiantes de colegio donde tendremos un panel con estudiantes y egresadas del programa de Matemáticas de la Konrad Lorenz y posteriormente realizaremos un circuito de retos. Para la jornada de la tarde, contaremos con la visita de la Secretaría de la Mujer donde nos compartirán información sobre los Centros de Inclusión Digital y finalizaremos la jornada con un Workshop interdisciplinar en reducción de brecha de género. 

Marina Ratner's work: from butterflies and shearing, to rigidity

What does 'shearing' has to with butterflies?  What does 'rigidity' means in mathematics and why is it important? In this talk, accessible to Bachelor and Master students with a mathematical background, we will try to answer these questions offering a glimpse of the powerful mathematical works of Marina Ratner (1938-2017) and her legacy, from the Ratner shearing property to Ratner's rigidity theorems.

The talk is part of the May12 initiatives to 'Celebrate Women in Mathematics'.
