02 Jun 2008 → 05 Jun 2008; Waltham, MA, United States
organizer: Tim D. Cochran, Stavros Garoufalidis, Cameron Gordon, Daniel Ruberman, Kent Orr
abstract: Fifty years ago, in a 1957 research announcement for the summer AMS meeting, R. H. Fox and J. Milnor, began their influential collaboration with the title, `Singularities of 2-spheres in 4-space and equivalence of knots.' Here they introduced the seminal idea that the concordance class of the link of a singularity obstructs its removal. Both concordance of knots, and the motivating goal of understanding singularities remain central to topology and algebraic geometry. A conference at Brandeis University will be held on June 2-5, 2008, to bring together a variety of researchers and students in geometric topology whose work connects to this fundamental idea. The conference will fertilize new research directions by encouraging mathematical interaction and collaboration. A substantial number of young investigators will be invited to give them exposure, broaden their perspective, and allow them to get to know each other and the more senior members of these fields. There will be approximately

abstract: The power of synthesis of Geometry, which led in the past to the formulation of 'grand unification theories', has got an essential role nowadays, especially because of the growing fragmentation of knowledge due to scientific progress. In order to avoid too a big dispersion, geometers need a constant dialogue. Therefore, a stable experience of personal meetings, apart from telematic interchanges, cannot be renounced. Current Geometry was born to allow a periodic update about actual progresses in Geometry (and its applications) on the international scene.

04 Jul 2008 → 09 Aug 2008; Montreal, Canada
abstract: In recent years, the most interesting developments in the theory of two-dimensional critical phenomena have emerged from a developing field that might be called Conformal Probability Theory which complements the extensive work (starting from the 1970's) in the Physics community on Conformal Field Theory. Substantial progress has been made in understanding the random fractal geometry of such two-dimensional systems as critical percolation and critical Ising models and their relation with such classic probabalistic objects as the frontier of two-dimensional Brownian motion. Among the topics to be treated in this workshop are: SLE and its Extensions, Critical and Near-Critical Scaling Limits, Gaussian Free Field, Coulomb Gas Methods, Relation to Conformal Field Theory and Quantum Gravity.

This conference is the latest addition to our continuing programme of activities, and has two official objectives: 1) to broaden the horizons of the rapidly developing subject of Toric Topology 2) to involve and enthuse the UK mathematical community by encouraging interaction with related disciplines. We are particularly interested in strengthening links with symplectic geometry, convex geometry, differential topology, equivariant topology, and all aspects of homotopy theory. The programme will be constructed around eight plenary lectures, and a number of other invited talks. Our conference has been granted the status of Satellite to the 5th European Congress of Mathematics in Amsterdam, and we encourage participants to attend 5ECM the following week. Flights from Manchester to Amsterdam are short and convenient.

abstract: The aim of this permanent school is to introduce undergraduate and Ph.D. students in Mathematics and Physics, as well as post-doctoral researchers, in a recently emerged area of Mathematics and Theoretical Physics: Secondary Calculus. A Diffiety is a new geometrical object that properly formalizes the concept of the solution space of a given system of nonlinear PDEs, much as an algebraic variety does with respect to solutions of a given system of algebraic equations. Secondary Calculus is a natural diffiety analogue of the standard calculus on smooth manifolds, and as such leads to a very rich general theory of nonlinear PDEs. Moreover, it appears to be the unique natural language for quantum physics, just as the standard calculus is the natural language for classical physics.

01 Sep 2008 → 06 Sep 2008; Montréal, Québec, Canada
abstract: Tiling problems have a long tradition in combinatorics and in statistical mechanics. One of the central problems is understanding the statistical structure of the patterns obtained when randomly tiling a large domain. As noticed by N. Elkies and J. Propp a decade ago, random tilings of a large planar domain may exhibit phase segregation; the density of tiles has a smooth (non-constant) variation in some regions of the domain in coexistence with a frozen region where the density of tiles is constant. In the corresponding surface picture the frozen region corresponds to a facet of constant slope while in the complement one has a rounded surface.

abstract: This workshop, sponsored by AIM and the NSF, has the goal of providing a description of $GL_3$ automorphic forms and their $L$-functions amenable to analytic number theorists and to explain the various approaches available to perform harmonic analysis on these spaces. A second objective will be to discuss the extension of some of the important tools existing in the $GL_2$ theory to the $GL_3$ context: a typical example is Kuznetzov's formula. A third objective will be to list some important problems known for $GL_2$ and to identify the main obstructions to the extension of these to $GL_3$: typical problems are non-vanishing problems for central values of L-functions and subconvexity problem. To achieve these goals we plan to bring together analytic number theorists and specialists from the theory of automorphic forms and related fields who are interested in analytic questions.

abstract: TOPOLOGY, C*-ALGEBRAS, and STRING DUALITY May 18 - May 22, 2009 Opening reception on the evening of May 17 at Texas Christian University, Fort Worth, TX Principal Lecturer: Jonathan Rosenberg (Univ. of Maryland) Some of the most exciting current research in geometry and topology has been motivated by problems in mathematical physics in general, and string theory in particular. Physicists are still divided concerning the usefulness of string theory as a ``unified field theory,'' uniting our understanding of all the fundamental forces of nature. However, even if string theory should turn out not to be fully confirmed by experiment, the fascinating and beautiful mathematics it has generated is expected to retain its mathematical value. The subject of the conference will involve a number of such ``spin-offs'' of string theory into pure mathematics, and the way they connect with other topics in topology and operator algebras that were initially developed for other purposes.
