(regular seminar) Necessary optimality conditions and implicit function
Resumo: The talk consists of two parts. The first part is devoted to the abstract minimization problem with constraints, which is called the mathematical programming problem. In the second part we discuss local properties of smooth nonlinear mappings in a neighborhood of an abnormal point. The problems that are studied in this talk (of course, in addition to their extremal nature) are united by the fact that we are mainly interested in studying the so-called abnormal or nonlinearized problems.

(local seminar) Rotas Seguras usando a 2-cobertura
Resumo: Dados n discos de raio r no plano, que representam
antenas, radares, sensores ou outros equipamentos de
vigilância com alcance limitado. Um ponto no plano está
2-coberto se estiver coberto por pelo menos dois destes discos.
Na sequência da importância prática desta classe de
problemas e dos resultados obtidos para minimizar o alcance
dos equipamentos de vigilância para 2-cobrir um ponto, apresentaremos
alguns resultados relacionados com o cálculo do
alcance mínimo para a 2-cobertura de um segmento de recta,
uma linha poligonal, um polígono arbitrário e um conjunto
de pontos no plano. Como último caso, analisaremos como
encontrar a melhor rota segura (2-coberta) entre duas localizações
(vértices) num grafo não dirigido, grafo esse que
representa um mapeamento de estradas.

(local seminar)Reconhecimento de grafos hamiltonianos com recurso
Orador: DomingosMoreira Cardoso, Universidade de Aveiro.
Resumo: A partir da subdivisão G_ de um grafo arbitrário G, verifica-se a existência de um 2-factor e introduz-se um algoritmo para o reconhecimento de ciclos de Hamilton. Estende-se a análise de grafos com dois valores próprios principais a famílias de grafos com no máximo k valores próprios principais, com 2 <= k <= n, e apresentam-se alguns problemas em aberto.

(local seminar) Reconhecimento de grafos hamiltonianos com recurso a técnicas espectrais
Resumo: A partir dos conceitos de valor próprio principal e polinómio
característico principal de um grafo G, deduzem-se várias propriedades e
algumas relações com a designada Walking Matrix de G. Determinam-se famílias
de grafos não regulares de ordem arbitrária com maior valor próprio
constante e, como aplicação de alguns dos resultados introduzidos,
apresenta-se um algoritmo para o reconhecimento de grafos de Hamilton.
(local seminar) "Turing machine and Cellular Automata for primary school"
Resumo: We consider some properties of these mathematical objects
which are exciting for mathematical community and then we discuss
some meaningful tasks for primary school pupils. One of the purposes
of this research is to introduce for children some mathematical worlds
which are aesthetical and natural, quite rich but still not too complicated
for self-study.
