• 1608a - Asymptotic Geometric Analysis 

      [OWR-2016-11] Workshop Report 2016,11 (2016) - (21 Feb - 27 Feb 2016)
      The workshop was dedicated to new developments in Asymptotic Geometric Analysis, the study of high-dimensional geometric objects by analytic and probabilistic means, and its interplay with other fields such as functional ...
    • 1619 - Factorization Algebras and Functorial Field Theories 

      [OWR-2016-25] Workshop Report 2016,25 (2016) - (08 May - 14 May 2016)
      Factorization algebras are a new mathematical approach to quantum field theory. They are related to functorial field theories, another approach to quantum field theory. Factorization algebras also figure in current research ...
    • 1609b - Mini-Workshop: Arrangements of Subvarieties, and their Applications in Algebraic Geometry 

      [OWR-2016-14] Workshop Report 2016,14 (2016) - (28 Feb - 05 Mar 2016)
      While arrangements of hyperplanes have been studied in algebra, combinatorics and geometry for a long time, recent discoveries suggest that they (and more generally arrangements of nonlinear subvarieties) play an even more ...
    • 1609a - Mini-Workshop: PBW Structures in Representation Theory 

      [OWR-2016-13] Workshop Report 2016,13 (2016) - (28 Feb - 05 Mar 2016)
      The PBW structures play a very important role in the Lie theory and in the theory of algebraic groups. The importance is due to the huge number of possible applications. The main goal of the workshop was to bring together ...
