The conference follows a long tradition of schools and workshops on Geometric Group Theory and beyond  in the Swiss Alps. The 2023 edition will be an occasion to celebrate the 70-th birthday of Slava Grigorchuk.

    Stage d’initiation à la recherche mathématique aux Diablerets                 À qui s’adresse-t-il ?   Les collégiennes genevoises de 2ème ou 3ème année intéressées par les mathématiques. Aucune connaissance ou niveau préalable n’est requis, autrement dit, pas de bons résultats en maths nécessaires. Les seules conditions sont d’être […]

Quantum Hall effect, discovered in the 1980s, continues to this day to attract enormous interest among both physicists and mathematicians. With its nontrivial connections to modern theoretical physics, analysis, geometry, probability and hydrodynamics, the subject can be counted on to provide novel insights, problems, ideas and collaboration prospects for respective communities. The topics to be discussed at this workshop […]

This conference will bring together students and close collaborators of Peter Teichner on the occasion of his sixtieth birthday. With Teichner’s contributions to both Low-dimensional Topology and Quantum Field Theory, this will be an opportunity to share ways of thinking between experts of these two areas. The accent will be on recent results which will […]

This workshop aims at bringing together mathematicians making use of analytic methods in their study of dynamics, geometry, PDEs, or inverse problems. In the past twenty years, microlocal and functional analysis techniques have encountered a large success both in hyperbolic dynamics and geometry as they turned out to be ripe enough to tackle unsolved problems […]

The HAGS started in 2013, and has been a major cohesive activity in Algebraic Geometry in Switzerland ever since. The core of the workshop is 3-4 lecture series given by top experts in the field, which are complemented by colloquium style talks and contributions from junior participants. Theme for 2023: Current developments in the moduli […]

Recently, there were three major breakthroughs in the field of integrable systems in mathematical physics: one within the area of classical systems, one concerning quantum systems, and one about algebraic integrability. This workshop brings together the leading senior and junior researchers of these areas with the aim to give them the opportunity to present their results, discuss ongoing projects, and […]

In the last few years there has been enormous progress in the rigorous understanding of the emergence of macroscopic effective theories for many-particle systems. This event aims at gathering researchers working on many-body classical and quantum systems, as well as on the analysis of nonlinear partial differential equations describing effective models. The workshop will give an overview of […]

This is the fifth edition of this informal workshop that brings together researchers working on non-perturbative approaches to Quantum Field Theory (QFT), with special emphasis on scattering amplitudes. Ample time will be allocated for discussions among the specialists on different topics like the conformal bootstrap, 2D integrable S-matrices, lattice field theory, effective field theories and […]

The aim of this workshop is to bring together researchers from both physics- in topological quantum field theory, high energy physics, and condensed matter- and mathematics- higher categories, representation theory, and topology- to report on recent progress and open questions in the study of generalised notions of symmetry. There have been significant recent developments in […]

The mapping class group (in short, MCG) of a surface is a fundamental object of study in topology and in geometry, where it is regarded as the orbifold fundamental group of the moduli space of Riemann surfaces homeomorphic to the surface.

The quantisation of moduli spaces is of fundamental interest for applications both in mathematics and physics. Such a quantisation has applications in diverse fields such as Chern-Simons theory and knot theory, conformal field theories, integrability (Painlev´e theory,…), gauge theory, the geometric Langlands correspondence and furthermore, it can be obtained from different perspectives and methods. The […]

Registrations will open in November 2023. More information coming soon

This is the first event in the Quantum Topology Biennial series (QTB), with a particular focus on the interplay between quantum topology and representation theory. The workshop will study interactions between the two fields, including pDG stuctures, non-semisimple TQFTs, modified traces, and the relation between Hilbert schemes of points and triply graded homology. More information […]

Two dimensional conformal field theories (CFTs) are ubiquitous in mathematical physics and as such provide surprising connections between different areas of research. The past decade has seen a surge of powerful techniques using supersymmetry, integrability, and more recently, random geometry/probability to study different aspects of CFTs. For instance, the task of explicitly computing conformal blocks […]

The Hilbert scheme of n points on a manifold parametrizes length-n subschemes of M. On the one hand, this is a classifying space of finite codimension ideals in polynomial rings, on the other hand, being one of the most natural moduli spaces, it plays a major role in many classical problems in enumerative geometry, complex […]

The connections between kinetic theory and fluid mechanics are deeply rooted in the multitude of phenomena that these theories describe. From the classic examples of gas and plasmas dynamics to the recent applications in collective behavior, the multiscale nature of these problems is undoubtedly a fundamental common feature. Kinetic equations are paramount in modeling large […]
