Belief Functions and Applications Society (BFAS)

The BELIEF school is a biennial event organized by the Belief Functions and Applications Society (BFAS) that offers a unique opportunity for students and researchers to learn about fundamental and advanced aspects of the theory of belief functions (also referred to as Dempster-Shafer theory, or evidence theory), a formalism for reasoning with uncertainty. The school will be organized around a set of lectures by prominent researchers. Lectures will gradually tackle basic to more advanced theoretical concepts. They will also highlight the links with other uncertainty theories such as random sets and possibility theory, and present applications of belief functions in various domains including machine learning, information fusion, statistical inference and materials science.

MIP South America is supported by the Mixed Integer Programming Society (MIPS), a section of the Mathematical Optimization Society (MOS).

The Mixed Integer Programming (MIP) Workshop is a single-track workshop highlighting the latest trends in integer programming and discrete optimization, with speakers chosen by invitation. It brings together researchers, students, and industry actors from around the globe, fostering collaboration and providing a showcase for students, early career academics, and developments in industry and novel applications. In this edition, we are putting a special focus on bringing a considerable number of speakers based in different countries of South America.

This workshop centers on the representation theory of finite groups and closely related structures. Some areas of the field are well-established and classical, while others include subjects born only recently. All are being rapidly evolving and actively explored by diverse research communities. These communities, often located in different regions around the world, offer distinct perspectives and approaches to the subject. A central aim of the workshop is to bring together experts and early-career researchers from these various groups, providing a forum to share progress, exchange ideas, and ask each other questions. The workshop also offers an opportunity to celebrate Dave Benson’s 70th birthday, which falls in December 2025. Dave’s work has had a profound influence on many of the themes represented at this meeting, and we look forward to honoring his contributions during the event.

The goal is to bring together researchers of different experience levels, from advanced graduate students to established mathematicians, in order to jointly work on research projects on topics of common interest within Toric Topology and Polyhedral Products. The focus of the workshop will be on active collaboration in teams, and while the weeklong workshop will be the most condensed part of the collaboration, it is expected that a significant amount of work on the projects will be done before as well as after the workshop. It is expected that at least one research paper be produced from each collaboration which will be published in a workshop proceedings after obtaining referees' approval.

The program will unite researchers from a number of areas: algebraic and complex geometry, arithmetic geometry, Hodge theory, and mathematical physics. It will bring theoretically and computationally oriented researchers together, expecting that computations will illuminate conjectures made by the theorists and that theory will enlarge the range of what can be computed. We intend to develop databases of certain types of K3 surfaces for the L-Functions and Modular Forms Database and promote the development of software for computations on K3 surfaces in Magma, SageMath, or other systems for public release.

Higher-rank graphs generalize path categories of directed graphs and are intricately connected to various mathematical disciplines. This workshop aims to illuminate the rich interplay between higher-rank graph C*-algebras and fields such as algebra, theoretical physics, and geometry. By examining how these algebras both influence and are influenced by these diverse areas, the event will provide insights into their broader implications and applications. The workshop will bring together experts from different fields and career stages, each offering a unique perspective on higher-rank graphs. and interactions.
