The Young Mathematicians Research Symposia (YMATRS) Platform invites young mathematicians from all over the world to design and run their own research symposia, and thus share their work and exchange ideas. The Platform carries out the mission of providing equal opportunities to all young and talented mathematicians who have difficulty accessing the resources and networks they need by providing this opportunity. The symposia, which will be evaluated and selected by the Scientific Committee consisting of distinguished scientists, will be held online. However, one selected symposium will be held in-person and the expenses of the participants such as accommodation and catering will be covered by YMATRS Platform.

CIRM – Centre International de Rencontres Mathématiques

The research school is an introductory meeting to the thematic program “Representation Theory and Noncommutative Geometry” to be held at IHP from January to March 2025. The trimester is part of an ongoing effort to bridge two fiels of Mathematics : the representation theory of locally compact groups and the theory of operator algebras. These research domains share origins in harmonic analysis, spectral theory and quantum mechanics but grew in separate directions. Recent progress in representation theory, involving especially non-Riemannian symmetric spaces and spherical varieties, and new tools developed in operator algebras, especially those involving K-theory and the other methods of non-commutative geometry, offer exciting prospects for new work at the interface between the two fields.

Real Sociedad Matemática Española (RSME)

The RSME's Congress of Young Researchers is a biennial conference of the Real Sociedad Matemática Española (RSME) where young researchers from the whole world tied—in one way or another—to the Spanish mathematical community meet to share their more recent results and, more importantly, to create ties and continue builiding collaboration networks between who will form the future mathematical community.

Equivariant techniques have played a critical role in the proofs of several major results and developments in algebraic topology over the past decade. Examples include the solution of the famous Kervaire invariant one problem, computations of previously inaccessible homotopy groups of spheres based on the motivic Adams spectral sequence, and the new equivariant approach to THH, TC, and algebraic K- theory. The programme will unite experts and young researchers who apply homotopic methods in algebra (operads), algebraic topology, and algebraic geometry (motivic homotopy theory) around the common theme of equivariant methods. Though these methods have already led to significant breakthroughs, their potential is clearly far from exhausted. We foresee that this programme will incite further developments and greater synergies between equivariant homotopy theory and the themes of the programme centred around three workshops: "Operads and calculus", "Chromatic and motivic homotopy theory" and "THH, TC and algebraic K- theory".

The main goal of these Etats de la recherche is to review some of the most recent spectacular developments in algebraic, analytic and arithmetic dynamics. Covered themes will include a variety of problems related to the iteration of rational maps on algebraic varieties as well as the study of their dynamical moduli spaces. Depending on the structure of the ambient field over which these maps are defined, methods may vary drastically. Over the field of complex numbers, one speaks of holomorphic dynamics in which quasi-conformal deformations play a key role. The case of maps defined over general metrized fields have led to the developments of dynamics over Berkovich spaces. One can also consider maps over number fields whose study lies at the core of arithmetic dynamics. Interactions between these various fields have deepened in the recent years. Complex pluripotential theory combined with tools from arithmetic geometry has been used to prove equidistribution results with applications to problems of unlikely intersection, and to explore dynamical moduli spaces and their special varieties. Methods in p-adic analysis and from the minimal model program have revolutionized our understanding of groups of birational transformations. Non-archimedean dynamics has been turned into a very efficient tool to analyze degeneration problems in holomorphic dynamics.

Solving time-harmonic wave equations with iterative methods is very challenging because they combine multiple difficulties like e.g. highly oscillatory solutions and complex non-Hermitian and indefinite discrete operators. In addition, the wave number associated to the numerical solution is different from the one of the exact solution thus leading to so-called numerical dispersion which requires very fine mesh to be controlled. There exists numerical schemes designed to reduce the dispersion error where the most used technique to build them relies on stencils involving free parameters that are next obtained by numerically minimizing the dispersion error. In the past few years, we develop an alternative approach called asymptotic dispersion correction. The latter is based on the introduction of a perturbation of the wavenumber (the shift) in the numerical scheme. We then explicitly compute the shift that minimizes the dispersion error for small enough meshsize. In addition, we show that our method can be applied to any finite difference scheme and reduces the relative error. We emphasize that most of works dealing with dispersion reducing methods consider the Helmholtz equation. The goal of the Research in Residence is to extend the asymptotic dispersion correction to the convected Helmholtz equation that can be used to model time-harmonic wave propagation in a moving flow.

Networks, graph driven algorithms, and dynamics on graphs such as epidemics, random walks and centrality measures all play a major role, both in our daily lives as well as many scientific and engineering disciplines. This introductory workshop will bring together experts and junior researchers in combinatorics, probability, and statistics to share a broad vision of major challenges and objectives, with a primary focus on models of random graphs and their limits, network inference, dynamic processes on networks and algorithms and optimization on random structures.

This Thematic Month aims to cover topics related to singularity theory of algebraic or analytic spaces, algebraic study of differential equations, and their applications to questions of transcendence. This 5-week program covers different themes that are often not closely related. One of the main objectives is to make them interact. To encourage participants (especially the youngest ones) to attend the entire month and foster interactions outside each one’s expertise zone, the scientific program of each week of the month will consist of courses accessible to non-experts, as well as more specialized presentations.

This workshop will feature leading experts in several major areas of graph theory, including extremal, probabilistic and structural aspects of the field. Introductory lectures will form an important part of the program, providing background and motivation, and aimed at a general mathematical audience. Complementing these, research talks will share exciting recent developments in graph theory.

K-stability is a central topic in modern complex geometry. It characterises Fano manifolds that admit a Kähler-Einstein metric and provides a good notion of compact moduli space for Fano varieties. The winter school will bring together experts on K-stability who will give 8 mini-courses for PhD students and young researchers with a special focus on explicit problems in dimensions two and three. Along with lecture courses, there will be exercise sessions.

We plan to work on several explicit problems about K-stability of smooth and singular Fano threefolds described in the proposal together with Hamid Abban (Nottingham, England) and Kento Fujita (Osaka, Japan). Hamid Abban works on K-stability of Fano varieites, and birational geometry of Fano varieties. His recent results on K-stability crucially changed the subject over the last two years. Kento Fujita is an expert in the general theory of K-stability of Fano varieties. One of the most important works of Fujita consisted on finding and proving a valuative criterion for K-stability.

The school will introduce participants to several hot research topics at the frontier between geophysical fluid dynamics, fundamental physics and mathematics. The main themes will be spontaneous stochasticity, waves in geophysical and astrophysical fluids and fundamental challenges in hydrodynamic and wave turbulence. The school will consist of several lecture series, plus a number of research seminars, covering mathematical, theoretical and experimental aspects. The school is organized in the framework of an international collaboration which started in 2019 and which is financially supported by the Simons Foundation (https://cims.nyu.edu/wave-turbulence/people/). This “Simons Collaboration on Wave Turbulence” brings together physicists and mathematicians with the aim of addressing fundamental questions about the Wave Turbulence theory and its applicability to real systems and especially to the Earth climate system.

The interactions between dynamics and geometry in dimensions up to three are fertile, they have been at the origin of many recent discoveries. A particularly nice example is the genericity of the set of three-dimensional Reeb flows admitting infinitely many periodic orbits. These interactions are also at the heart of a number of current research programs around the world in various directions. Transverse geometric structures (possibly singular), for example, represent a promising line of work for the study of Anosov flows in dimension three. Methods and concepts from one-dimensional dynamical systems, singular geometric structures on surfaces (of which translation surfaces are the paradigmatic example) and three-dimensional flows are fundamental. These ideas permeate a large part of mathematics, inspiring many higherdimensional notions, but are not as well-known as they should be by a wider public of young researchers in geometry and dynamics. The aim of this summer school is to help filling this gap, through three in-depth mini-courses on circle diffeomorphisms, translation surfaces and the dynamics of three-dimensional Reeb flows.

An L-function is a function defined additively by a Dirichlet series with a multiplicative Euler product. The initial work of Dirichlet was generalized to number fields by Hecke and given an adelic interpretation by Tate which paved the way to move from GL(1) to higher degree L functions associated to automorphic forms of GL(n) for a general n . Automorphic L functions are essentially analytic objects and allow translations between arithmetic and analysis. We recall the legendary correspondence in the case of the Riemann-ζ function, the prototype of higher L -functions both analytic and arithmetic-algebraic, between an arithmetic statement on the distribution of primes and an analytic one on the distribution of its zeros. Now there are many more parameters to explore. For example, bounding twisted automorphic forms in terms of conductors help obtain the asymptotics of representations of totally positive integers by ternary quadratic forms. The aim of this school is to prepare the participants to appreciate the contemporary theory of automorphic representations, their L -functions and their surprising links with diverse fields like Fourier analysis, algebraic geometry and theoretical physics.

This workshop will accelerate development of new directions in chromatic and unstable homotopy theory and in the homotopy theory of polyhedral products. Key will be the exploration of areas of interaction: unstable homotopy theory and polyhedral products have substantial existing intersection while recent developments in chromatic homotopy theory suggest exciting new intersections with unstable homotopy theory and polyhedral products.
