Europe/Rome DUE TO THE COVID19 PANDEMIC THIS SCHOOL HAS BEEN CANCELLED. --------------------- Original text purpose of the School ---------------------- This School will be held at the ICTP-East African Institute for Fundamental Research [EAIFR] in Kigali, Rwanda; it will offer students concrete and effective mathematical tools from algebra, group theory and geometry that can be applied to any scientific field. Description of Courses: Advanced linear algebra This goes beyond a first course on the subject. Topics like Jordan normal form will be studied as well as bilinear forms, multilinear forms and tensor products; Groups, Counting and FFT We start with group theory via rotations in 3d space; this will be used in Pólya counting problems. We then moves on to character theory culminating in fast Fourier transform; Introduction to Lie Algebras The course introduces Lie algebras and aims towards of the classification of semisimple Lie algebras which is widely considered one of the most elegant results in mathematics; Modular forms The course introduces modular forms. We will study many concrete examples, like the Eisenstein series, from which we will construct the finite dimensional spaces of modular forms of any weight. Kigali - Rwanda ICTP pio@ictp.it

Europe/Rome Note: ICTP has suspended all educational activities from 24 February as precautionary measures due to COVID-19; more details at https://www.ictp.it/about-ictp/media-centre/news/2020/2/ictp_suspend_activities.aspx Dynamical Systems and Ergodic Theory constitute a vibrant and exciting field of current research in pure mathematics, with lots of connections to other areas such as probability theory, differential geometry, ODEs, and potential applications to such diverse areas as natural and biological sciences, economics, engineering, climate and disease modeling and many others. It can be thought of as a modern development of classical theories of Differential Equations and the fundamental concepts and guiding ideas go back more than a century to pioneering thinkers such as Poincaré, Birkhoff and Kolmogorov. Its interest and importance has only grown in time and several Fields Medals have been awarded in the area. The present Workshop is part of a long standing tradition of Dynamical Systems and Ergodic Theory activities at ICTP that was initiated by J. Palis and C. Zeeman in the early 1980s, and continued by Ya. Sinai, J.-C. Yoccoz and others. It will address a wide range of topics in this field, including: • dynamics of one-dimensional maps • homoclinic and heteroclinic behavior, fractal dimensions • partially hyperbolic systems, dominated splittings • singular hyperbolic flows • conservative dynamics, KAM theory • dynamics in homogeneous spaces • billiards, interval exchanges, Teichmüller flows • dynamics of rational and entire functions • symbolic dynamics, thermodynamic formalism • stochastic behavior of deterministic systems • Lyapunov exponents, nonuniform hyperbolicity The list of invited speakers reflects the diversity of these subjects. Their lectures will constitute the basis of the programme, but posters sessions are also planned, which will give participants an opportunity to present their works.

Please, find detailed information on the local website. https://geometry-maceio.sciencesconf.org The "Workshop on Differential Geometry” has become a traditional event that takes place every year in the state of Alagoas, Brazil, during the Brazilian summer, congregating renowned international experts and members of the Brazilian geometry community. The 2020 edition will celebrate the 10th anniversary of the event, which has been organized since 2011 by the Institute of Mathematics of the Federal University of Alagoas (UFAL). There will be a balance of topics that are active in Brazil and research directions that need to be stimulated and further developed. In the first week 5 advanced mini courses will be given by international experts while the second week will be devoted to research seminars. Applicants should specify if they want to take part to only one of the two weeks of the Workshop. Topics: • Minimal surfaces, constant mean curvature surfaces • Kahler geometry, extremal metrics • Mathematical relativity, stability/rigidity phenomena • Mean curvature ow • Gluing and desingularization techniques, phase transition PDEs Minicourses: Lucas Ambrozio, University of Warwick Joel Fine, Université Libre de Bruxelles Laurent Hauswirth, Université de Marne-la-Vallée Celso Viana, University of California - Irvine Lu Wang, University of Wisconsin-Madison Invited Speakers: Sérgio Almaraz, Universidade Federal Fluminense Claudio Arezzo, International Centre for Theoretical Physics Gérard Besson, Institut Fourier - Université de Grenoble José María Espinar, Universidad de Cadiz Abigail Folha, Universidade Federal Fluminense Ailana Fraser, University of British Columbia Gregory Galloway, University of Miami Casey Kelleher, Princeton University* Levi Lima, Universidade Federal do Ceará Vanderson Lima, Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Sul Jorge Lira, Universidade Federal do Ceará Andrea Loi, Università di Cagliari Andrea Malchiodi, Scuola Normale Superiore Ana Menezes, Princeton University Frank Pacard, École Polytechnique Paolo Piccione, Universidade de São Paulo Álvaro Ramos, Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Sul Tristan Rivière, ETH Zürich Richard Schoen, University of California - Irvine Gang Tian, Beijing University Feliciano Vitorio, Universidade Federal de Alagoas Jun-cheng Wei, University of British Columbia Xi-Ping Zhu, Sun Yat-sen University *To be confirmed Attention for the 2nd week of the "Workshop on Differential Geometry - Week 2", 19 - 23 October 2020 go to link: http://indico.ictp.it/event/9228/ Maceio - Brazil ICTP pio@ictp.it
