      [SNAP-2020-001-EN] Kammeyer, Holger; Sauer, Roman (Mathematisches Forschungsinstitut Oberwolfach, 2020-04-15)
      We provide a leisurely introduction to ℓ²-Betti numbers, which are topological invariants, by relating them to their much older cousins, Betti numbers. In the end we present an open research problem about ℓ²-Betti numbers.
    • From computer algorithms to quantum field theory: an introduction to operads 

      [SNAP-2015-017-EN] Krähmer, Ulrich (Mathematisches Forschungsinstitut Oberwolfach, 2015)

      [SNAP-2021-001-EN] Lamboglia, Sara; Ulirsch, Martin (Mathematisches Forschungsinstitut Oberwolfach, 2021-02-23)
      What is the dollar game? What can you do to win it? Can you always win it? In this snapshot you will find answers to these questions as well as several of the mathematical surprises that lurk in the background, including ...
    • 1211 - Frontiers in Nonparametric Statistics 

      [OWR-2012-14] (2012) - (11 Mar - 17 Mar 2012)
      The goal of this workshop was to discuss recent developments of nonparametric statistical inference. A particular focus was on high dimensional statistics, semiparametrics, adaptation, nonparametric bayesian statistics, ...
    • A Function Algebra Providing New Mergelyan Type Theorems in Several Complex Variables 

      [OWP-2019-02] Falcó, Javier; Gauthier, Paul Montpetit; Manolaki, Myrto; Nestoridis, Vassili (Mathematisches Forschungsinstitut Oberwolfach, 2019-02-11)
      For compact sets $K\subset \mathbb C^{d}$, we introduce a subalgebra $A_{D}(K)$ of $A(K)$, which allows us to obtain Mergelyan type theorems for products of planar compact sets as well as for graphs of functions.

    • Fundamental Theorem of Projective Geometry over Semirings 

      [OWP-2021-09] Tewari, Ayush Kumar (Mathematisches Forschungsinstitut Oberwolfach, 2021-10-11)
      We state the fundamental theorem of projective geometry for semimodules over semirings, which is facilitated by recent work in the study of bases in semimodules defined over semirings. In the process we explore in detail ...

      [OWP-2013-09] Bate, Michael; Herpel, Sebastian; Martin, Benjamin; Röhrle, Gerhard (Mathematisches Forschungsinstitut Oberwolfach, 2013-04-10)
      In this paper we present an algorithm for determining whether a subgroup $H$ of a non-connected reductive group $G$ is $G$-completely reducible. The algorithm consists of a series of reductions; at each step, we perform ...
