Dear All

 

We would be grateful if you could pass on the following notice to your colleagues and students about an upcoming LMS-CMI Research School in 2017:

 

The London Mathematical Society (LMS) in partnership with the Clay Mathematics Institute (CMI) are pleased to announce the third LMS-CMI Research School in 2017 for research students and early career researchers:

 

Topic: Introduction to geometry, dynamics, and moduli in low dimensions

Venue: Warwick

Dates: 11 – 15 September 2017

Organisers: J. Aramayona (Madrid), S. Schleimer (Warwick), J. Smillie (Warwick)

 

Course outline

The Research School will offer a broad introduction to low-dimensional geometry, topology, and dynamics. Experts in the field will each deliver a mini-course devoted to a particular sub-area. The mini-courses will be accompanied by problem sessions, supervised by tutors. The School is the opening event of the EPSRC-Warwick Symposium “Geometry, dynamics, and moduli in low dimensions” to be held at Warwick during the academic year 2017-18. Participants of the School are also invited to apply to the other workshops of the symposium.

 

Lecture Courses

·         Yael Algom-Kfir (Haifa) Free groups as fundamental groups of graphs

·         Tara Brendle (Glasgow) Description of Teichmüller space in terms of hyperbolic geometry

·         Nathan Dunfield (UIUC) Methods for computation of geometric structures and invariants

·         Erwann Lanneau (Grenoble) Teichmüller dynamics

·         Julien Marché (Paris VI) Geometric structures viewed in terms of representations

 

These lecture courses will be supplemented by tutorial sessions.

 

Further information, Fees and Funding

Please visit: www2.warwick.ac.uk/fac/sci/maths/research/events/2017-18/symposium/igdm/

 

·         Research students: £150. There will be no charge for accommodation and subsistence costs.

·         Early career researchers: £250. There will be no charge for accommodation and subsistence costs.

·         Other participants (e.g. those working in industry): £250

 

Research students who have not completed their PhDs by the start of the Research School and who would otherwise be unable to attend can apply for financial aid.

 

Fees are not payable until a place at the Research School is offered but will be due by 11 August 2017.

 

How to Apply:

Apply online (https://tinyurl.com/gwgv8lr) by 16 June 2017. Research students, post-docs and those working in industry are invited to apply. A reference is also required to support your application so please ask your referee to complete the online form here: https://tinyurl.com/jcmgffk

*All applicants will be contacted within three weeks after the deadline; information about individual applications will not be available before then.*

 

Best wishes

Elizabeth

=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- This message was sent to you via the Geometry List, which announces conferences in geometry and closely related areas to almost 1500 mathematicians worldwide.

At http://listserv.utk.edu/archives/geometry.html there are many functions available, including checking the archives since November 2005, changing your e-mail address or preferences, and joining/leaving the list. If you have problems that cannot be resolved at this website, send a message to [log in to unmask]

Before sending an announcement, please carefully read the following. Any announcements that are *not* about conferences (e.g. those about jobs, journals, books, etc.) will be rejected by the moderator without comment. To announce a geometry or closely related conference, send the announcement (including a conference web site if possible) to [log in to unmask] The moderator cannot edit your message; list members will receive the announcement as an e-mail from you EXACTLY as you submitted it. For example, if your submission starts with "Please post this on the geometry list" then your conference announcement will also begin with that statement. In order to keep down the volume of e-mail, only TWO announcements per conference will be approved by the moderator. The "subject" of your message should include the name of the conference and the number (first or second) of the announcement, e.g. Gauss Memorial Lectures in Geometry: Second Announcement. Please check that your announcement (especially the website) is correct. Corrections will be approved only in the most critical situations, e.g. if corrected information is not available on the website. After submitting an announcement you may receive a message asking you to confirm your submission. This feature is designed to thwart the hundreds of machine-generated spam that are sent to the list and would otherwise have to be manually blocked by the moderator. If you do not see your announcement within 48 hours, please check the archives to see whether it was actually posted (i.e. you somehow missed seeing the post or are not subscribed with your current email address). If the announcement is not in the archive, search for a confirmation message that you may have missed (from listserv.utk.edu). If none of this solves the mystery, send a message to [log in to unmask]

The Geometry List is sponsored and maintained by the Mathematics Department, The University of Tennessee, Knoxville.
