Organized by: Theodore D. Drivas (Stony Brook University), Sam Punshon-Smith (Tulane), Francisco Torres de Lizaur (university of Toronto) The purpose of this course is to introduce graduate students to state-of-the-art methods, results, and open problems in mathematical fluid dynamics. We will discuss the mathematical foundations and modern analysis aspects of the Navier-Stokes and Euler equations. […]

Please join us for an exciting week at the Simons Center for Geometry and Physics!  April 13-15, 2022 – JimFest Scientific Workshop JimFest is a celebration of world-renowned theoretical physicist, S. James Gates, Jr.  Prof. Jim Gates is the Director of the Center for Theoretical Physics at Brown University. He is an advocate for education, […]

Organizing by: Sergio Cacciatori (Università degli studi dell’Insubria), Samuel Grushevsky (SCGP), Alexander Polishchuk (University of Oregon) A supermanifold is the generalization of a usual manifold when some of the coordinates are even variables, and some are odd. The mathematical foundations of supergeometry were established in the 1970s and 1980s. While much of the motivation for […]

Organized by: Brian Conrey (American Institute of Mathematics), Matilde Lalin (Université de Montréal), Giuseppe Mussardo (Laboratorio Interdisciplinare Scienze Naturali e Umanistiche, SISSA), German Sierra (UAM/CSIC) The interplay between Number Theory and Physics has a long tradition, as illustrated by several examples and many initiatives of the past. A well-know example is the tantalizing connection between […]

Organized by: Ljudmila Kamenova (Stony Brook University), Giovanni Mongardi (University of Bologna), Alexei Oblomkov (UMass Amherst) Hyperkahler manifolds are higher-dimensional generalizations of K3 surfaces, and as such they are a perfect testing ground for central conjectures in algebraic geometry, like the Hodge conjecture, the Tate conjecture, Grothendieck’s standard conjectures, Bloch-Beilinson conjectures, etc. Exciting new insight […]

This roundtable is geared towards the most pressing issues of post-pandemic return to in-person sessions, recruiting […]

Organized by: Mykola Dedushenko, Simons Center for Geometry and Physics Heeyeon Kim, Rutgers University, Johanna Knapp, University of Melbourne, Ilarion Melnikov, James Madison University, Eric Sharpe, Virginia Tech. Gauged linear sigma models (GLSMs) have provided key insights into numerous aspects of string theory and supersymmetric field theory and have been a bridge to various fields […]

Organized by: Eric Bahuaud, Seattle University Panagiota Daskalopoulos, Columbia University Christine Guenther, Pacific University James Isenberg, University of Oregon Dan Knopf, The University of Texas at Austin Claude LeBrun, Stony Brook University. The Ricci flow has played a decisive role in geometry and topology during the forty years since it was first introduced by Richard […]

Organized by: Karim Adiprasito, University of Copenhagen and Hebrew University of Jerusalem, Alexey Glazyrin, University of Texas Rio Grande Valley, Isabella Novik, University of Washington, Igor Pak, UCLA. Convex polyhedra are fundamental structures in geometry playing an intermediate role between the continuous (smooth) and discrete (combinatorial) worlds. Over the past century, much progress has been […]
