| 5.Advanced Course "Compactifying Moduli Spaces" |
| Dates | 27 Mai 2013 → 31 Mai 2013 | [ID=529448]  |
| Lieu | Barcelona, Espagne |
| Résumé | The Advanced School "Compactifying Moduli Spaces" deals with various instances of moduli spaces in Algebraic Geometry, with particular attention to questions related to compactification. It has three goals: to introduce a new generation of students and researchers to these subjects; to collect and survey recent development in the theory; to formulate and disseminate new problems and directions of research. The geometry of moduli spaces has been widely investigated and it is certainly one of the main subjects in Algebraic Geometry. In particular, moduli spaces of curves gave a major boost to the theory due to their many connections with Theoretical Physics and counting invariants. However, to count invariants it is very useful to apply intersection theory techniques that require the space to be proper, and moduli spaces are usually not proper. The problem of compactifying them is not trivial. Geometric Invariant Theory (GIT) may be a way to tackle the problem, but the limit points can be hard to describe geometrically. Nowadays, new notions of stability and new techniques related to the minimal model program have been combined with GIT to provide new points of view to attack the problem and, more generally, to study the birational geometry of compactified moduli spaces. This has brought back many important insights again about counting invariants and mirror symmetry and has also been used to study other moduli problems, like the moduli of coherent sheaves or the moduli spaces of higher dimensional varieties. The lecturers have been chosen among the leading experts of the area. Following the usual policy of the Advanced Schools at CRM, informal notes will be delivered by the speakers to the participants at the beginning of the school. |

| Dates | 03 Jui 2013 → 28 Jui 2013 | [ID=474389]  |
| Lieu | Toronto, Ontario, Canada |
| Résumé | The summer school school will include lectures on mathematical epidemiology, and one of the most important aspects will be projects for groups of 4?6 students, mixing scientific backgrounds and levels of experience, and focusing on real-world problems around which students develop and analyze models. It will also incorporate several lectures on public-health topics with focus on those relevant to other events of MPE2013 such as global spread, Indigenous populations health, vector-borne diseases and integration of surveillance, statistical data analysis and dynamical modelling and simulations. The goals of the Summer School are to encourage more developing scientists to become interested in this field and to encourage communication between mathematical modellers and public health scientists and epidemiologists who have been historically unaware of the uses of mathematical modeling. |

| 10.Recent advances in Hodge theory: period domains, algebraic cycles, and arithmetic |
| Dates | 10 Jui 2013 → 20 Jui 2013 | [ID=529396]  |
| Lieu | Vancouver, BC, Canada |
| Résumé | A four-day summer school for graduate students and postdocs, followed by a six-day research conference on the asymptotics, symmetries, and arithmetic of periods, as well as related representation theory and geometry. In its simplest form, Hodge theory is the study of periods - integrals of algebraic differential forms which arise in the study of complex geometry, number theory and physics. Its difficulty and richness arises in part from the non-algebraicity of these integrals. According to the beautiful conjectures of Hodge, Bloch and Beilinson, what algebraic structure they have should be explained by (generalized) algebraic cycles. There has been much recent progress on these conjectures and on classifying spaces for periods, as well as their asymptotic and arithmetic; this conference will bring together leading scholars and students of these topics. Given that our desire is to create a number of new collaborations, we would aim at a small number of high-quality talks per day with ample breaks between each. In addition to bringing together leading scholars on the different aspects of the asymptotic, symmetries, and arithmetic of periods together for a research conference, the organizers will also arrange for a prior workshop for graduate students and recent Ph.D.'s on major themes of the conference. We expect this expository part to run approximately 4 days, with lectures by the organizers and some of the invited speakers. |

| Résumé | The study of computational problems on graphs has long been a central area of research in computer science. However, recent years have seen qualitative changes in both the problems to be solved and the tools available to do so. Application areas such as computational biology, the web, social networks, and machine learning give rise to large graphs and complex statistical questions that demand new algorithmic ideas and computational models. At the same time, techniques such as semidefinite programming and combinatorial preconditioners have been emerging for addressing these challenges. |

| Dates | 07 Avr 2014 → 11 Avr 2014 | [ID=541961]  |
| Lieu | Providence, États-Unis |
| Résumé | Spectral graph theory, which studies how the eigenvalues and eigenvectors of the graph Laplacian (and other related matrices) interact with the combinatorial structure of a graph, is a classical tool in both the theory and practice of algorithm design. The success of this approach has been rooted in the efficiency with which eigenvalues and eigenvectors can be computed, and in the surprisingly large number of ways that a graph's properties are connected to the Laplacian's spectrum---particularly to the value of its second smallest eigenvalue, ?2. However, while the eigenvalues and eigenvectors of the Laplacian capture a striking amount of the structure of the graph, they certainly do not capture all of it. Recent work in the field suggests that we have only scratched the surface of what can be done if we are willing to broaden our investigation to include more general linear-algebraic properties of the matrices we associate to graphs. A particularly fruitful example of this has been the study of Laplacian linear systems, where the interplay between linear algebra and graph theory has led to progress in both fields. On the one hand, researchers have used the combinatorial structure of the corresponding graphs to facilitate the solution of these linear systems, resulting in solvers that run in nearly-linear time. On the other hand, one can use these linear systems to describe the behavior of electrical flows on a graph, which has provided a powerful new primitive for algorithmic graph theory. This interaction has already led to improved algorithmic results for many of the basic problems in algorithmic graph theory, including finding maximum flows and minimum cuts, solving traveling salesman problems, sampling random trees, sparsifying graphs, computing multicommodity flows, and approximately solving a wide range of general clustering and partitioning problems. In addition, researchers have recently shown how to exploit a wide range of other algebraic properties of matrices associated to graphs, such as the threshold rank, cut norm, sensitivity to perturbation, or hypercontractivity of the eigenspaces, to achieve impressive algorithmic results. In this workshop, we will bring researchers together to study and advance this new emerging frontier in algorithmic graph theory. |
