AIM Workshop: Scissors congruences, algebraic K-theory and Steinberg modules
08 Jul 2024 - 12 Jul 2024 • American Institute of Mathematics, Pasadena, California, United States
Organizer:
American Institute of Mathematics (AIM)
Abstract:
This workshop, sponsored by AIM and the NSF, will be devoted to connections between scissors congruence K-theory and Steinberg modules. Scissors congruence is the study of when objects such as polyhedra, manifolds, varieties, etc. are equivalent under decomposition into pieces. In the last decade, the introduction of K-theoretic constructions in the study of scissors congruence problems by Campbell and Zakharevich has seen exciting applications and opened new avenues of attack on this problem. Generalizing results for classical scissors congruence groups, Malkiewich showed that scissors congruence groups can be described as group homology with coefficients in Steinberg modules. Steinberg modules are certain representations that are relevant to the study of representations of linear groups, algebraic K-theory, and the cohomology of arithmetic groups. The goal of the workshop is to bring together researchers studying scissors congruence K-theory and as well as Steinberg modules, in order to explore interactions between the two fields.
Topics:
The main topics for the workshop are: Scissors congruence K-theory Resolutions of Steinberg modules (Co)algebraic structures of Steinberg modules and scissors congruence spectra Connections with more classical forms of K-theory

Introductory Workshop: New Frontiers in Curvature
26 Aug 2024 - 30 Aug 2024 • Berkeley, California, United States
Organizer:
Simons Laufer Mathematical Sciences Institute (SLMath)
Abstract:
This workshop will include introductory lectures on each of the four main topics of the program: geometric flows, geometric problems in mathematical relativity, global Riemannian geometry, and minimal submanifolds. The workshop will also have semi-expository lectures on recent advances and breakthroughs involving interactions between the four main topics. This will set the stage and provide important context for the semester-long program itself.
Topics:
mean curvature flow, Ricci flow, fully nonlinear flows, general relativity, mass, Ricci curvature, scalar curvature, sectional curvature, symmetry, Riemannian geometry, group actions, minimal surfaces, stability and index

Harmonic Analysis and Convexity
09 Dec 2024 - 13 Dec 2024 • Providence, RI, United States
Organizer:
Institute for Computational and Experimental Research in Mathematics (ICERM)
Abstract:
In recent years, there has been a significant increase in the interaction between harmonic analysis and convex geometry, leading to solutions for several longstanding open problems, the discovery of new phenomena, as well as many new intriguing open questions. These connections were studied during the Fall 2022 ICERM semester program Harmonic Analysis and Convexity. The objective of this workshop is to revisit and review the results produced during the semester and the subsequent year. The primary areas of focus for the workshop will encompass: The Fourier approach to Geometric Tomography; Volume and Duality; the Bellman technique for extremal problems in harmonic analysis; Convexity of solutions to Hamilton–Jacobi–Bellman equations; as well as numerical computations and computer-assisted proofs: Exploring the use of computational methods for theoretical aspects, including optimal algorithms, as well as practical implementation.
