• 1641 - Arbeitsgemeinschaft: Diophantine Approximation, Fractal Geometry and Dynamics 

      [OWR-2016-48] Workshop Report 2016,48 (2016) - (09 Oct - 14 Oct 2016)
      Recently conjectures by Schmidt and by Davenport were solved in papers by Dzmitry Badziahin, Andrew Pollington and Sanju Velani, and by Victor Beresnevich. The methods which they used are the source for a growing number ...
    • 1634 - C*-Algebras 

      [OWR-2016-40] Workshop Report 2016,40 (2016) - (21 Aug - 27 Aug 2016)
      The field of operator algebras is a flourishing area of mathematics with strong ties to many other areas including functional/harmonic analysis, topology, (non-commutative) geometry, group theory and dynamical systems. The ...
    • 1631 - Computational Group Theory 

      [OWR-2016-37] Workshop Report 2016,37 (2016) - (31 Jul - 06 Aug 2016)
      This was the seventh workshop on Computational Group Theory. It showed that Computational Group Theory has significantly expanded its range of activities. For example, symbolic computations with groups and their representations ...
    • 1640 - Mathematical and Algorithmic Aspects of Data Assimilation in the Geosciences 

      [OWR-2016-47] Workshop Report 2016,47 (2016) - (02 Oct - 08 Oct 2016)
      The field of “Data Assimilation” has been driven by applications from the geosciences where complex mathematical models are interfaced with observational data in order to improve model forecasts. Mathematically, data ...
    • 1635 - Measured Group Theory 

      [OWR-2016-41] Workshop Report 2016,41 (2016) - (28 Aug - 03 Sep 2016)
      The workshop aimed to study discrete and Lie groups and their actions using measure theoretic methods and their asymptotic invariants, such as $\ell^2$-invariants, the rank gradient, cost, torsion growth, entropy-type ...
    • 1606b - Mini-Workshop: Applied Koopmanism 

      [OWR-2016-7] Workshop Report 2016,7 (2016) - (07 Feb - 13 Feb 2016)
      Koopman and Perron–Frobenius operators are linear operators that encapsulate dynamics of nonlinear dynamical systems without loss of information. This is accomplished by embedding the dynamics into a larger infinite-dimensional ...
    • 1633 - Multiscale Interactions in Geophysical Fluids 

      [OWR-2016-39] Workshop Report 2016,39 (2016) - (14 Aug - 20 Aug 2016)
      The dynamics of the atmosphere and ocean involves a broad range of spatial and temporal scales, many of which emerge through complex nonlinear mechanisms from forcings at very different scales. This poses major challenges ...
    • 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 ...
