fall 2016

October 18, 2016: An investigation of quasilocal systems in general relativity; Nezihe Uzun, PhD.; Middle East Technical University, Ankara / University of Canterbury, Christchurch
October 25, 2016: Quantum cosmology: Games without frontiers; Ana Alonso-Serrano, PhD.; Institute for Fundamental Physics, Spanish National Research Council, Madrid
November 1, 2016: Scalar perturbations of K-essence models with applications to late-time cosmic acceleration; Mgr. Jan Novák, PhD.; Department of Mathematics, Faculty of Informatics and Statistics, University of Economics in Prague; An elementary introduction to scalar perturbations of the K-essence models. I will show how to obtain a late-time cosmic acceleration and indicate how to use the approach also for a>a0, which will be useful for modelling of the earlier stages of cosmic evolution.
