OxTalks is Changing
On 28th November OxTalks will move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events' (full details are available on the Staff Gateway).
There will be an OxTalks freeze beginning on Friday 14th November. This means you will need to publish any of your known events to OxTalks by then as there will be no facility to publish or edit events in that fortnight. During the freeze, all events will be migrated to the new Oxford Events site. It will still be possible to view events on OxTalks during this time.
If you have any questions, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
Generalised convexity with respect to families of affine maps
The standard convex closed hull of a subset of $\mathbb{R}^d$ is defined as the intersection of all images,
under the action of a group of rigid motions, of a half-space containing the given set. We propose
a generalisation of this classical notion, that we call a $(K,\mathbb{H})$-hull, and which is obtained from the
above construction by replacing a half-space with some other convex closed subset $K$ of the
Euclidean space, and a group of rigid motions by a subset $\mathbb{H}$ of the group of invertible affine
transformations. The above construction encompasses and generalises several known models in convex
stochastic geometry and allows us to gather them under a single umbrella. The talk is based on recent
works by Kalbuchko, Marynych, Temesvari, Thäle (2019), Marynych, Molchanov (2022) and Kabluchko,
Marynych, Molchanov (2023+).
