• 1621 - The Renormalization Group 

      [OWR-2016-26] Workshop Report 2016,26 (2016) - (22 May - 28 May 2016)
      The renormalization group was originally introduced as a multiscale approach to quantum field theory and the theory of critical phenomena, explaining in particular the universality observed e.g. in critical exponents. Since ...
    • 1638b - Theory and Numerics of Inverse Scattering Problems 

      [OWR-2016-45] Workshop Report 2016,45 (2016) - (18 Sep - 24 Sep 2016)
      This workshop addressed specific inverse problems for the time-harmonic Maxwell’s equations, resp. special cases of these, such as the Helmholtz equation or quasistatic approximations like in impedance tomography. The ...
    • 1607a - Topological Recursion and TQFTs 

      [OWR-2016-9] Workshop Report 2016,9 (2016) - (14 Feb - 20 Feb 2016)
      The topological recursion is an ubiquitous structure in enumerative geometry of surfaces and topological quantum field theories. Since its invention in the context of matrix models, it has been found or conjectured to ...
    • 1629 - Topologie 

      [OWR-2016-35] Workshop Report 2016,35 (2016) - (17 Jul - 23 Jul 2016)
      The Oberwolfach conference “Topologie” is one of only a few opportunities for researchers from many different areas in algebraic and geometric topology to meet and exchange ideas. This year we emphasized two topics of ...
    • 1613 - Toric Geometry 

      [OWR-2016-19] Workshop Report 2016,19 (2016) - (27 Mar - 02 Apr 2016)
      Toric geometry is a subfield of algebraic geometry with deep intersections with combinatorics. This workshop brought together researchers working in toric geometry, applying toric geometry elsewhere in algebraic geometry, ...
