Europe/Rome The goal is to bring together leading researchers worldwide in complex analysis, geometry, and dynamics, with the aim of enhanced future collaboration. These fields are strongly interrelated, and in order to be able to solve deep challenging problems it is becoming necessary to pursue synergies among them to a bigger degree than in the past. Topics: Holomorphic approximation theory L2 techniques, plurisubharmonic functions, complex pluripotential theory Complex dynamics in higher dimensions Holomorphic directed systems, contact systems Applications of complex analysis to minimal surfaces Flexibility versus rigidity in complex geometry Cauchy-Riemann geometry Monge-Ampėre equations and Kähler manifolds There have been major recent advances in all these topics which the speakers will report on. It is becoming increasingly evident that a deeper level of cooperation will be needed for further progress. Speakers: A. ALARCÓN, University of Granada, Spain D.

Europe/Rome ICRA is a biannual international conference series started in 1974. It brings together well-established experts and young researchers in representation theory and in allied fields where representation theory is applied. The first week will consist of a workshop with six lecture series, including introductory talks and on topics of particular current interest, such as recent links to both topological data analysis and to mathematical physics. One of the lecture series will be devoted to the mathematical heritage of Ragnar Buchweitz. The second week will be a conference with invited speakers in addition to contributed talks, both in plenary and in parallel sessions. Topics: Representation theory of algebras and its applications, including: -Topological Data Analysis -Cluster algebras -Non-commutative algebraic geometry -Modular representation theory.

Europe/Rome This School offers the students concrete and effective mathematical tools from algebra, group theory and geometry that can be applied to any scientific field. Below is a description of the courses. Advanced Linear Algebra The course starts by reviewing some basic ideas from a first course in linear algebra: matrices up to similarity, eigenvalues, eigenvectors, characteristic polynomial and diagonalisation. It then moves on to the Jordan canonical form. The aim is to cover also bilinear forms, multilinear forms and tensor products. After which we introduce the tensor, symmetric and exterior algebra with a view to representations of the general linear group. Groups, Counting and FFT We introduce the basic definitions in group theory using finite groups of rotations in 3-dimensional Euclidean space as examples. We then go on to use it in counting problems culminating in counting the number of ways one may colour faces of a cube with m-colours up to rotational symmetry. All of these lead to Maschke’s theorem and basic character theory. The aim is to use them to calculate character tables of some basic examples of groups and decompose some natural representations. Some applications of representation theory of finite groups, like the Fast Fourier Transform FFT, will be discussed. Introduction to Lie Algebras Lie Algebras are mathematical objects which, besides being of interest in their own right, elucidate problems in several areas in mathematics. The classification of the finite-dimensional complex Lie algebras is a beautiful piece of applied linear algebra. The aims of this course are to introduce Lie algebras, develop some of the techniques for studying them, and describe parts of the classification mentioned above, especially the parts concerning root systems and Dynkin diagrams. Modular Forms Modular forms are special functions on the complex upper half-plane. They are characterised by a functional equation which depends on an integer k, called the weight. These functions have beautiful properties - for example, the space of modular forms of a given weight is finite dimensional. Modular forms are naturally connected with many areas in mathematics, including the theory of lattices and quadratic forms, and various problems in number theory. The course will give an elementary introduction to modular forms. We will see how the space of modular forms of any weight k can be calculated explicitly. We will also study concrete examples of modular forms and their properties in detail, including the so-called Eisenstein series and the discriminant function. Kigali - Rwanda ICTP pio@ictp.it

Europe/Rome 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.
