The algebraic geometry community has a tradition of running a summer research institute every ten years. During these influential meetings a large number of mathematicians from around the world convene to overview the developments of the past decade and to outline the most funda…
Group actions on Riemann surfaces, Klein surfaces, and related structures such as hyperbolic manifolds, complex surfaces, and Teichmüller spaces constitute an important nexus for group theory, combinatorics, geometry, topology, Galois theory and complex analysis. Compact Riemann…
The second Women in Numbers workshop (WIN2) was held November 6-11, 2011, at the Banff International Research Station (BIRS) in Banff, Alberta, Canada. During the workshop, group leaders presented open problems in various areas of number theory, and working groups tackled those …
Ilya I. Piatetski-Shapiro, who passed away on 21 February 2009, was a leading figure in the theory of automorphic forms. From April 23-27, 2012 the conference Automorphic Forms and Geometry: Assessing the Legacy of I.I. Piatetski-Shapiro was held at Yale University to assess the…
