About the Lectureship:
The LMS Hardy Lectureship is named after G.H. Hardy, former President of the Society and De Morgan Medallist. Originally awarded to a distinguished overseas mathematician in odd-numbered years.
The LMS Hardy Lecturer visits the UK for a period of about two weeks, and gives the Hardy Lecture at a Society meeting, normally held in London in July. The LMS Hardy Lecturer also gives at least six other lectures, on different topics, at other venues in the UK; the schedule is decided by the LMS Society, Lectures and Meetings Committee in consultation with the LMS Hardy Lecturer, and is designed to allow as many UK mathematicians as possible to benefit from the LMS Hardy Lecturer's presence in the UK.
Abstract:
Action-angle coordinates and toric actions on singular symplectic manifolds
In this lecture, I will revisit several results in the pursuit of action-angle coordinates in singular symplectic and Poisson manifolds. The topic will naturally lead me to explore toric and almost toric actions on singular symplectic manifolds.
