Title: Geometric and function theoretic aspects of the tetrablock
Abstract: We study the tetrablock, a domain in \mathbb{C}^3 given by 

\mathbb{E}=\left\{\left(x_1,x_2,x_3\right) \in \mathbb{C}^3 : \ 1-x_1 z-x_2 w+x_3 zw \neq 0 \ \ \text{for} \ \ |z| \leq 1,|w| \leq 1\right\}.\]The tetrablock is related to a certain function-theoretic problem that arises in control engineering. We discuss several characterizations for the elements in$\mathbb{E}$ and in its closure. We present a set of necessary and sufficient conditions that provide a Schwarz lemma for $\mathbb{E}$. We also describe the automorphism group of $\mathbb{E}$.

Title: Zero Mean Curvature Surfaces and Ramanujan's Identities

Abstract: In this talk, we discuss an interesting connection between examples of zero mean curvature surfaces in Euclidean and Lorentz-Minkowski 3-space and some special Ramanujan identities.
