Dates: September 14-18, 2015 Organized by: Anton Kapustin and Alexander Kirillov Topological Quantum Field Theory (TQFT) was first introduced by Witten at the end of 1980s as physical theory. It was immediately followed by an avalanche of works by many authors, both mathematicians and physicists, among them Atiyah, Reshetikhin and Turaev, Segal,.. who showed TQFT … Read more

Organizers: Radu Laza, Valentino Tosatti, Mark Gross, and Simon Donaldson Dates: August 31 – September 4, 2015 This workshop is organized in connection to the SCGP program on Moduli spaces and singularities in algebraic and Riemannian geometry. The main topic is the Riemannian collapsing and large complex structure limits of Calabi-Yau manifolds. This is a … Read more

Organized by Eugene Gorsky, Sergei Gukov, Mikhail Khovanov, Vivek Shende, and Piotr Sulkowski Dates: June 1 – 5, 2015 The aim of this workshop is to exchange current ideas in physics and mathematics related to knot homologies. Intimate relations between knots and physics, found around 25 years ago in the seminal work by Witten, grew … Read more

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
