Meetings/Workshops on Algebra in Germany

Mathematisches Forschungsinstitut Oberwolfach (MFO, Oberwolfach Research Institute for Mathematics)

Interdisziplinäre Fachkonferenz aus Anlass des 100-jährigen Jubiläums der Habilitation Emmy Noethers

Über neues Wissen, alte Denkmuster und strukturelle Veränderungen

The purpose of the workshop is to survey recent progress and promising future research directions on statistical properties of class groups of number fields, of Selmer groups of elliptic curves, and related topics. The conference will feature a mixture of overview talks and more specialised research talks, as well as contributed talks by early career researchers. There will also be ample time for informal discussions and collaborations.

The International Symposium on Mathematical Morphology (ISMM) has established itself as the main scientific event in the field. We will be delighted to host the 14th International Symposium on Mathematical Morphology (ISMM 2019) at the Saarland University in Saarbrücken, Germany. The goal of the conference is to bring together researchers, students, and practitioners of mathematical morphology and related methodologies, to present and discuss new advances in the field, be they purely theoretical developments or novel applications.

In the tradition of the earlier events, this workshop aims at bringing together the leading experts in the field, covering a broad spectrum reaching from the more theoretically-oriented over the explicit to the algorithmic aspects. The fundamental problem motivating the workshop asks for a description of the set of rational points X(Q) for a given algebraic variety X defined over Q. When X is a curve, the structure of this set is known, and the most interesting question is how to determine it explicitly for a given curve. When X is higher-dimensional, much less is known about the structure of X(Q), even when X is a surface. So here the open questions are much more basic for our understanding of the situation, and on the algorithmic side, the focus is on trying to decide if a given variety does have any rational point at all.

The representation theory group at Bielefeld will celebrate in September 2019 the 50th anniversary of the Faculty of Mathematics with a workshop. Right after the workshop the Faculty of Mathematics will host a two day conference (26-27 September).

Bielefeld University, Faculty of Mathematics

The Faculty of Mathematics will host this conference about outer space, groups of (outer) automorphisms of free groups and related topics. In addition to the talks, there will be a session on open problems in this area. This is one of the accompanying workshops of the 50 Years Faculty of Mathematics Anniversary Conference.

The theory of subfactors of von Neumann factors, founded by Fields Medalist Vaughan Jones, is an exciting and extremely active area of mathematics that has profound connections with low dimensional topology, group theory, conformal field theory, statistical mechanics, quantum information theory and many others. At the heart of these interactions lies a surprising world of quantum symmetries that subfactors seem particularly suitable at capturing. New links between subfactor theory and quantum computing have recently been established as well.

The workshop aims at bringing together experts from these different areas to learn from each other, discuss problems and present new ideas at the frontier of these exciting developments.
