 Dear colleagues,

We hope that you are all well, and finding a way to adjust to our new circumstances.

We are writing to announce the new Oxford Discrete Mathematics and Probability Seminar, which will take place on Tuesdays, on Zoom, starting on 31st March, and will feature talks in both Combinatorics and Probability. For the first week we will have a single seminar at 2pm (UK time); in most future weeks we will also have a second seminar at 3.30pm. The talks are open to everybody: please feel free to forward this announcement to anyone you think might be interested. The first two talks will be: 31st March, 2pm: Rob Morris (IMPA), Erdős covering systems 7th April, 2pm: Louigi Addario-Berry (McGill), Hipster random walks. More details can be found at http://people.maths.ox.ac.uk/scott/dmp.htm . This will be something of an experiment while we get to grips with the technology, but we're excited about the possibilities this format might bring! We are aware of several other excellent such initiatives going on, and will be keen to share our experiences and learn what works.

We have set up a mailing list for seminar announcements, discmathprob@maillist.ox.ac.uk. In order to subscribe, please send an email to sympa@maillist.ox.ac.uk with subject “subscribe discmathprob Firstname Lastname” (replace “Firstname” and “Lastname” appropriately); leave the message body blank. You should receive a message to let you know that your subscription has been successful.

Our intention (of course with the agreement of the speakers) is to record the seminars and put them on YouTube for an indefinite period of time, to act as a resource for the community. This has consequences from the perspective of data protection since, by default, if you participate, personal data consisting of your username, audio and video may be recorded. If you wish to participate but do not want your personal data recorded, you should please make sure to turn off your video and mute your microphone.

All best wishes, Christina Goldschmidt and Alex Scott.
