Meetings/Workshops on Algebra in the United Kingdom

The International Workshop on Operator Theory and its Applications meets annually to bring together mathematicians and engineers who work in functional analysis and its application to related areas.

Analysis,    Applied Mathematics (in general)

Y-RANT is a (relatively) new conference aimed at postgraduate students and early career researchers in algebraic number theory, promoting discussion and sharing of ideas between members of the community. Participants are strongly encouraged to register to give short talks on their research or other topics of interest. We will do our best to accommodate all participant's talks, however this might not be possible due to time constraints. In addition there will be three keynote talks given by senior researchers in the field.

Number Theory, Arithmetic,    Courses and Events for Math Students and Early Career Researchers

Clay Mathematics Institute (CMI)

Spectral geometry, calculus of variations, and elliptic PDEs are a central part of modern analysis and geometric analysis. At the same time, these have important applications in other sciences, in particular mathematical physics. This workshop aims to bring together leading experts in these fields to discuss the main developments and open questions. The main research themes of the workshop include shape optimisation and sharp functional inequalities, Robin boundary value problems, Steklov eigenvalue problems, and properties of eigenfunctions and solutions to elliptic PDEs.

Calculus, Differential Equations and Integration,    Geometry and Topology

The aim of the meeting is to bring together leading experts and early career researchers to make progress on understanding rational points on surfaces and higher dimensional varieties. Traditionally there have been two separate communities working in the area, using tools from analytic number theory and algebraic geometry, respectively. Spectacular progress has been made in recent times by managing to bridge these communities, with a particular highlight being applications of Green-Tao-Ziegler's work on primes in arithmetic progressions to the fibration method. The emphasis in the meeting will be on building upon this bridge and further inspiring collaboration between the analytic and geometric communities.

Schinzel's Hypothesis with probability, Campana points, Purity of strong approximation, Rational points in families, Brauer--Manin obstruction

The success of modern codes for large-scale optimization is heavily dependent on the use of effective tools of numerical linear algebra. On the other hand, many problems in numerical linear algebra lead to linear, nonlinear or semidefinite optimization problems. The purpose of the conference is to bring together researchers from both communities and to find and communicate points and topics of common interest. This Conference has been organised in cooperation with the Society for Industrial and Applied Mathematics (SIAM).

The conference is held on the occasion of Peter Newstead's 80th birthday. Please see the web page for up-to-date information.
