This workshop will bring together leading, as well as early career, researchers on arithmetic statistics and on algorithmic aspects of algebra and number theory, with the aim of fostering collaborations within and between these communities, and to offer early career researchers the opportunity to get a broad overview of the most recent achievements and of the most pressing problems in these fields. The workshop will also celebrate the mathematics of Hendrik W Lenstra Jr.

The conference is part of a two week Isaac Newton Institute (INI) programme that follows up on the 2018 INI semester programme "Homotopy Harnessing Higher Structures". People interested in this conference may also consider attending the workshop at the INI in Cambridge in the following week, 12-16 June 2023, "Homotopy: Fruit of the Fertile Furrow".

This workshop will aim to bring together experts in the theory of C*-algebras with mathematicians who have already been inspired by C*-algebras or who work in areas where there are natural connections with C*-algebras.

The workshop will focus on recent new trends connecting different classical as well as quantum integrable systems through dualities and symmetries. We are inviting world leading researchers from a diverse range of the integrable systems community in order to disseminate these new important developments and techniques; strengthen and explore new and existing connections between different aspects of integrable systems; identify future perspectives and aims; and provide a networking opportunity for established and early career researchers.

Vaughan Jones initiated the study of subfactors in the early 1980's, in the theory of von Neumann algebras of operators on Hilbert spaces. Subfactor theory rapidly led to connections with link and 3-manifold invariants, quantum groups and exactly solvable models in statistical mechanics. Subsequently deep applications and connections have been uncovered with algebraic, topological and conformal quantum field theory. This workshop will review progress in the field during and after the programme as well as proposing future research directions in the multitude of areas related to subfactors, quantum symmetries and their applications.

The main objective of this workshop is to bring together a range of researchers in geometry and topology, whose research interests are closely aligned to topics where geometric flows either already or are expected to play a key role, with experts in the analysis of geometric flows.

Victor P. Snaith (1944 – 2021) was distinguished not just as an outstanding mathematician who made deep and lasting contributions in algebraic topology and number theory but also as a charismatic leader who enthusiastically developed research communities and generously supported young researchers.

The conference will bring together homotopy theory, cohomology of groups, algebraic K-theory and number theory, the main areas in which Vic worked. The aim is to feature important developments, paying special attention to synergies between these areas, as Vic did in much of his versatile research.

This is the ninth Iwasawa conference following conferences in Besancon, Limoges, Irsee, Toronto, Heidelberg, London, Tokyo and Bordeaux. The conference is dedicated to the memory of John Henry Coates

Some of the most exciting developments in geometric representation theory revolve around the relatively new theory of W-algebras. Broadly speaking these are obtained via the process of quantum Hamiltonian reduction from the some of the most influential structures in modern representation theory: enveloping algebras and universal affine vertex algebras. The applications of W-algebras are seemingly endless, but we list some key examples: the ordinary and modular representation theory of Lie algebras, the classification of integrable systems (especially generalisations of the KP hierarchy), a deeper understanding of smooth representations of affine Lie algebras, conformal field theories (and their associated AdS duals), modular tensor categories and the famous geometric Langlands program, once described by Edward Frenkel as “the grand unifying theory of mathematics”. The aim of this workshop is to bring the world's leading experts together to investigate recent developments in the theory of W-algebras and their representation theory, as well as interactions with other topics in geometric representation theory.

This event will be a twinned transatlantic conference on “C*-algebras and tensor categories”, promoting new connections between C*-algebra theory and tensor categories/subfactors - an interface with tremendous, yet barely explored, potential. The two locations of the conference will be the Fields Institute in Canada and ICMS in Edinburgh.

Many major breakthroughs in the classification of C*-algebras of finite topological dimension have been underpinned by the large-scale transfer of von Neumann techniques on multiple levels. The overarching objective of this conference is to bring together researchers at the interface of the rapidly developing areas of the structure and classification of C*-algebras and subfactor theory/tensor categories.

Isaac Newton Institute for Mathematical Sciences (INI)

The programme will start with an introductory school on equivariant methods in algebraic and differential geometry for graduate students, postdocs and those who are interested in learning background material for the programme.

This workshop focuses on the following themes and their interactions: 1. Geometric and equivariant aspects of algebraic statistics 2. Computation of invariants in algebraic (especially toric) geometry 3. Algebraic group actions on combinatorial spaces

The workshop focuses on recent equivariant techniques in enumerative geometry of holomorphic maps between complex manifolds. It will bring together researchers working on global singularity theory (multisingularity classes of holomorphic maps, Thom polynomials, multiple-point formulas), and on complex manifolds with positivity properties (hyperbolicity, ample cotangent bundle, jet differentials). The mini-courses aim to explain the central role of the Hilbert scheme of points on complex manifolds in these problems.

The goal of this conference is to bring together researchers in complex algebraic and differential geometry, working on notions of stability for algebraic varieties such as K-stability (and in particular the construction of moduli spaces of algebraic varieties), the existence of canonical metrics in Kähler geometry and the many nearby topics that interact with these areas. The relationship between K-stability and the existence of canonical Kähler metrics goes by the name of the Yau-Tian-Donaldson conjecture, and is motivated by a more classical correspondence between stability in the sense of geometric invariant theory and properties of moment maps as used in symplectic geometry—two of the overarching themes of the wider programme. This conference will emphasise the deep links between Kähler geometry, stability conditions and various related problems in equivariant algebraic and differential geometry.

Isaac Newton Institute for Mathematical Sciences (INI)

The workshop focuses on the role of equivariant techniques in enumerative geometry and moduli stacks. It will bring together researchers working on the relationship between concepts of stability and wall-crossing in different settings such as moduli stacks, geometric invariant theory, Bridgeland stability and K-stability, as well as enumerative geometers studying the geometry and topology of Hilbert schemes of points on surfaces and higher dimensional manifolds and related invariants.

Hilbert’s twelfth problem asks for explicit constructions of the abelian extensions of a given number field, similar to what is known for the rational numbers and for imaginary quadratic fields. The workshop will focus on the breakthroughs in [DKa] and [DKb], with a lecture series by the two authors forming the cornerstone of the activity.
