Organized by Ron Donagi, Samuel Grushevsky, Sheldon Katz, and Edward Witten Dates: May 18 – 22, 2015 The goal of the workshop is to catalyze rapid development of the extension to super Riemann surfaces of the theory of Riemann surfaces and their moduli. We plan to bring together mathematicians and physicists working on Riemann surfaces … Read more
Organized by Lars Brink, Viatcheslav Mukhanov, and Nikita Nekrasov Dates: May 4 – 8, 2015 Fundamental Particle Physics and Cosmology are both at fascinating crossroads. With the start of the LHC at CERN, the world’s most advanced particle accelerator it has finally been possible to probe particle physics at far higher energies than before. Even … Read more
Application for workshop is now closed. Organized by Krzysztof Gawedzki, Boris Khesin, and Paul Wiegmann Dates: May 19 – 23, 2014 Geometric and group-theoretic methods lie at the foundation of modern studies in hydrodynamics. Recent applications of fluid dynamics require understanding of fundamental symmetries of fluids and infinite-dimensional groups featured by hydrodynamical equations. The geometric and topological hydrodynamics is a … Read more

Application for workshop is now closed. Organized by Kenji Fukaya, Dusa McDuff, and John Morgan Dates: March 17 – 21, 2014 This workshop will study various constructions of the virtual moduli cycle with the aim of clarifying exactly how to count pseudoholomorphic curves. Mostly it will look at the simplest case: that of closed … Read more
PLEASE NOTE: In this year, its first year, the school will be by invitation only and is not open to the public. Organized by Andrew Millis Dates: June 9 – 13, 2014 The Simons Collaboration on the Many Electron Problem brings together scientists focused on developing new ways to solve the quantum mechanical equations governing … Read more
Application for workshop is now closed. Organized by Kenji Fukaya, Dusa McDuff, and John Morgan. Dates: June 2 – 6, 2014 This workshop is an integral part of the program entitled “Moduli Spaces of pseudo-holomorphic curves and their applications to symplectic topology.” The program and the workshop focus on two basic approaches to understanding the … Read more

Organized by Chris Herzog, Kristan Jensen, Dmitri Kharzeev, Shinsei Ryu, and Dam Son. Dates: February 17 – 21, 2014 The past decade has seen an unexpected revolution in both our understanding of and interest in relativistic hydrodynamics (RH). This revival was originally motivated by applications to the phenomenology of relativistic heavy-ion collisions as well as … Read more
