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.

22 Jul 2008 → 26 Jul 2008; Brussels, Belgium
abstract: Among the recent developments in the study of algebraic structures, three strongly interrelated trends seem to be outstanding: a quest for a more algebraic version of noncommutative geometry, generalizations of Hopf algebras as symmetry structures, and the program of categorification. A powerful complement to the latter is the idea of considering algebraic or physical structures on whole categories rather than on individual mathematical objects. The conference aims to relate progress in these directions stemming from work in different subfields of mathematics, including algebra, representation theory, algebraic geometry, operator algebras, and theoretical and mathematical physics.

abstract: Nonlinear wave interactions lie at the heart of numerous physical phenomena and the mathematical modelling of these systems has driven the development of a broad and vibrant field of mathematical research. The study of nonlinear wave equations has lead to the development of numerous mathematical techniques including aspects of scattering theory, asymptotic expansions, perturbation theory, as well as substantial advances in numerical simulation methods for wave propagation. This workshop will bring together researchers with expertise both in the numerical and analytic aspects of nonlinear wave problems and provide opportunity for students and other researchers to share in the latest developments in these areas. The format of the workshop will be 4 short courses each consisting of 3-4 hours of lectures over 3 days. Students and other researchers will be invited to present their work as short lectures.

abstract: Physical duality symmetries relate special limits of the various consistent string theories (Types I, II, Heterotic string and their cousins, including F-theory) one to another. By comparing the mathematical descriptions of these theories, one reveals often quite deep and unexpected mathematical conjectures. The best known string duality to mathematicians, Type IIA/IIB duality also called {it mirror symmetry}, has inspired many new developments in algebraic and arithmetic geometry, number theory, toric geometry, Riemann surface theory, and infinite dimensional Lie algebras. Other string dualities such as Heterotic/Type II duality and F-Theory/Heterotic string duality have also, more recently, led to series of mathematical conjectures, many involving elliptic curves, K3 surfaces, and modular forms.

22 Oct 2008 → 02 Nov 2008; Cotonou, Benin
organizer: UNESCO Chair of Mathematical Physics and Applications (ICMPA-UNESCO Chair)
abstract: Building on the growing success of its previous editions, one of the main objectives of this fifth COPROMAPH Workshop is to contribute to the development of a critical mass of researchers in Africa in as dynamic an area as is mathematical physics. The Workshop brings together specialists in Mathematics, Theoretical and Mathematical Physics. It offers the international scientific community an arena for interactions and presentations of scientific research results on contemporary problems in these fields. The Workshop also provides young African researchers an opportunity to know each other and initiate scientific collaboration. The Workshop thereby contributes in strengthening the research capacity and revitalizing activities in mathematical physics in African universities. Given that perspective, the Workshop is preceded by the Third International COPROMAPH School dedicated to methods in Geometry and Quantisation to lay the ground-work in preparation of the Workshop, through two series of graduate level lectures, accompanying tutorials, and student seminars.

10 Nov 2008 → 14 Oct 2008; Leiden , Netherlands
organizer: Lorentz Center
abstract: The focus of this workshop will be on the modeling, analysis and simulation of fast reaction-slow diffusion type scenarios as well as corresponding fast-reaction limits. Within this framework, internal sharp and thin reaction layers form and travel through the spatial domain often producing unexpected effects. Such situations appear in a variety of significant applications; for example fame propagation in combustion theory, segregation and aggregation of biological individuals, chemical attack on reactive porous materials (such as concrete or natural stone), dissolution and precipitation reactions in minerals, solidification and temperature-induced phase transitions in steels represent typical cases in which the fast process is localized within an a priori unknown internal active layer.

abstract: Signal processing constitutes an important area for the application of mathematical concepts and techniques fuelled, for example, by developments in mobile communications, multimedia systems and digital TV. The subject is still advancing rapidly in areas such as non-linear/non-Gaussian/non-stationary signal processing, digital communication systems, iterative estimation (e.g. turbo codes), blind deconvolution/signal separation and broadband systems. The last IMA conference on this subject was held in December 2006 and in response to popular demand, the next one will be held at the same location in December 2008. The aim of the conference is to bring together mathematicians, statisticians and engineers with a view to exploring recent developments and identifying fruitful avenues for further research. It is hoped that the meeting will help to attract more mathematicians into this important and challenging field.
