DESCRIPTION:Title: Graphical calculus: from numerical methods to Feynman 
 diagrams to higher Lie theory and microformal morphisms\, part 3\n\nAbst
 ract: The goal of these talks is to explore a number of seemingly unrela
 ted topics\, in which graphs and trees can be used to capture the struct
 ure of important calculations. In each case\, the objects of interest wi
 ll turn out to be infinite series\, where the summations run over specia
 l classes of graphs or trees.\n\nIn part 3 we will look at how graphical
  methods can be used to study thick morphisms (as defined by Ted Voronov
 )\, which are generalisations of smooth maps between manifolds that stil
 l give rise to pullbacks on functions. These pullbacks are nonlinear and
  until recently had no known closed form. This problem has been resolved
  by taking inspiration from some of the methods we have looked at in the
  previous two lectures.
