This program will focus on several aspects of the theory of automorphic forms with an emphasis on the relations among the internal structure of spaces of automorphic forms, the Langlands functoriality principle, automorphic L-functions, and questions in geometry, in particular, those regarding locally symmetric spaces. These are associated with arithmetic subgroups of a given reductive algebraic group G dened over analgebraic number field. Special attention is given to the theory of Eisenstein series and their ubiquitous role within the theory of automorphic forms.

Since its origins in the work of Sophus Lie (now more than a century ago), Lie theory has seen tremendous developments and is now fundamental in many areas of mathematics (like group theory, geometry, symmetric spaces etc) and physics (quantum mechanics, particle physics, theory of gravity). Nowadays there are specialized computer packages such as LiE, the Atlas project, the package Chevie for GAP3, the program ChevLie. Also the more general purpose computer algebra systems GAP4, MAGMA and SageMath have large libraries for dealing with various objects that are central to Lie theory.

The conference aims at bringing the eminent Number Theorists worldwide in the domain of Algebraic Number Theory and young scholars from the country on a common platform to project their work, and foster collaborations to further the development of Mathematical Research.

The areas of particular interest include: Ideal class groups of number fields (algebraic, analytic and computational aspects), Relative class numbers of number fields, Annihilators of class groups, Class field theory, Picard groups, Selmer groups, Diophantine equations, Elliptic curves, Iwasawa Theory, Modular forms and related topics.

The diagrammatic approach has its origins in the discovery of new quantum invariants of knots and links in the 1980s. Crane and Frenkel raised the idea of categorifying quantum groups, hence, link invariants, already in the 1990s, and this vision prompted the development of powerful link homology theories such as Khovanov-Rozansky homology. The categorification of quantum groups involves Khovanov-Lauda-Rouquier algebras, which are often presented diagrammatically. They are a building block for Kac-Moody 2-categories, which categorify Lusztig’s modified integral form for quantized enveloping algebra. There have been many remarkable developments in this direction in the last few years, including the introduction by Webster of more general algebras categorifying tensor products, DG versions of these algebras which categorify Verma modules, and p-DG versions which are being used to categorify link invariants at roots of unity. The field of diagrammatic categorification is still in its early stages, but it has already had a significant impact on more traditional mathematics. This workshop aims to unite both established experts and emerging scholars across various domains of diagrammatic categorification, including representation theory, combinatorics, and link homology.

Webs are diagrammatic tools for representing complex calculations graphically. These diagrams first arose from the representation theory of classical groups, and they have since become important in disparate areas of mathematics. In representation theory, they encode morphisms of quantum groups. In topology, webs give rise to powerful link invariants. In algebra and geometry, Kuperberg's \(mathrm{sl}(3)\) web bases have important relationships with the theory of cluster algebras and affine buildings. In combinatorics, they explain certain dynamics on Young tableaux. Recent work by Gaetz--Pechenik--Pfannerer--Striker--Swanson introduced an \(\mathrm{sl}(4)\) web basis that has exploited and extended exciting connections between webs, plabic graphs, and crystals. There are further connections to total positivity, duality conjectures for cluster algebras and mirror symmetry.

This workshop centers on the representation theory of finite groups and closely related structures. Some areas of the field are well-established and classical, while others include subjects born only recently. All are being rapidly evolving and actively explored by diverse research communities. These communities, often located in different regions around the world, offer distinct perspectives and approaches to the subject. A central aim of the workshop is to bring together experts and early-career researchers from these various groups, providing a forum to share progress, exchange ideas, and ask each other questions. The workshop also offers an opportunity to celebrate Dave Benson’s 70th birthday, which falls in December 2025. Dave’s work has had a profound influence on many of the themes represented at this meeting, and we look forward to honoring his contributions during the event.
