Many problems in mechanics involve deformable domains with moving boundaries. Examples include
to name but a few. The interaction of the moving boundary with the participating media leads to fascinating phenomena in a very broad range of contexts such as:
This symposium, which is going to be the first IUTAM Symposium in New Zealand, aims to gather the community of engineers and scientists involved in moving boundary and related problems in mechanics.
The symposium will facilitate a mix of researchers working on the development of related mathematical methods and algorithms, and applications of recent and ongoing problems. We also encourage researchers performing experiments related to moving boundary problems to participate. Since the community of researchers involved in moving boundary problems in mechanics is fairly fragmented, we believe that this symposium will be a unique opportunity to cross-fertilise ideas and concepts from different disciplines of mechanics and foster engineering applications.

In 2017, it will be 40 years since the publication of Gilbarg and Trudinger’s Elliptic Partial Differential Equations of Second Order. We celebrate this with a program to link the past research with the future perspectives, by discussing what the important developments in the area during these forty years have been and what are the new trends of contemporary research. Particular attention will be given to some of the topics in which the book served as a great source of inspiration, such as
and so on.

The recent years have seen a rich cross-fertilisation of ideas between physics and mathematics that has led to fantastic advances in each field. A prominent example of this is the notion of a tensor category. These abstract structures have a depth and ubiquity that has made them indispensable knowledge for many modern research fields including conformal field theory and vertex algebras, knot theory, operator algebras and subfactors, quantum groups, representation theory, topological quantum field theory and applied fields such as condensed matter physics. Moreover, the foundational work in these areas is inextricably linked to high-profile names such as Drinfeld, Huang, Jones, Kazhdan–Lusztig, Moore–Seilberg, Reshetikhin–Turaev, and Witten.
This workshop will bring together a dynamic mix of international experts from the mathematics and mathematical physics communities in order to foster communication and collaboration and disseminate this important work to graduate students and early career researchers. It will involve introductory lectures and research talks from high profile international visitors including …
We would also like to invite registered participants to now submit titles and abstracts for contributed talks in areas related to the
workshop's themes. We expect that these will be 25min (plus 5 for questions) in duration (depending on demand).
Please email your title/abstract directly to David Ridout (david.ridout@unimelb.edu.au) before 5pm, May 26.
We are required to charge a small registration fee which we have fixed at:
This fee also gives you a ticket to the conference dinner, a fabulous Greek feast at Mesa () restaurant that you will not forget. Please be sure to let us know before May 29 if you have any dietary requirements.

This is a very special IWOCA, dedicated to the memory of Prof. Mirka Miller. Mirka was one of the founders of IWOCA (then known as AWOCA) and had attended many gatherings of this workshop since its initiation in 1988. She had been an active member of the IWOCA Steering Committee since its inception in 2006.
The series of IWOCA conferences grew out of over 25 years history of the International (since 2007) respectively Australasian (until 2006) Workshops on Combinatorial Algorithms. Previous IWOCA and AWOCA meetings have been held in Australia, Canada, Czech Republic, Finland, France, Indonesia, India, Italy, Japan, South Korea, UK, and the US.
Previous IWOCAs can be found at http://www.iwoca.org/
We solicit high-quality papers in the broad area of combinatorial algorithms.
The topics include (but are not restricted to):

This workshop at the University of Sydney will bring together experts and emerging researchers from Australia, the USA and Europe to report on recent results and explore future directions in computational and algorithmic topology and related areas. There will be a focus on problems in low-dimensional geometry and topology, and on the development of practical algorithms and their implementation. This is an area with an abundance of computational and algorithmic challenges, where practical solutions to many solvable problems, such as the homeomorphism problem, remain elusive. This workshop aims to stimulate interaction between researchers in order to bring about new collaborations on difficult problems that cannot be tackled from one viewpoint alone. We plan to have introductory talks on the first three days of the workshop, followed by research talks on the remaining two days.
The timing for this workshop is chosen to allow participants at SoCG 2017 two days for collaboration, sight seeing and travel to Brisbane!
In addition, participants are given the opportunity to submit contributed talks.
Please register by e-mailing stephan.tillmann@sydney.edu.au with the following information:
A small fee will be collected at the event to contribute towards catering costs (AUD 20 for AMSI members and AUD 25 for non-AMSI members) and (if applicable) the conference dinner (around AUD 50, BYO). Reduced fees apply to students.

5ICC is the fifth in a series of major combinatorics conferences that are run once per decade by the Combinatorial Mathematics Society of Australasia. Researchers in any area of combinatorics (interpreted broadly) are warmly invited. Students are also encouraged to attend, and there will be a prize for the best student talk.
In the week prior to 5ICC, the Tutte Centenary Retreat will be held at The Mathematical Research Institute MATRIX to celebrate 100 years since the birth of Bill Tutte.
Dates: 24–27 July 2017
Venue: Noah's on the Beach, Newcastle, NSW, Australia
The aim of this workshop is to bring together the world's foremost experts on the theory of semigroups and their relationships to other fields of mathematics such as operator algebras and totally disconnected locally compact groups. This workshop will allow the international leaders in the field to come to Australia to teach young Australian ECRs, and to forge new collaborations with Australian mathematicians.
Operator algebras associated to semigroups can be traced back to a famous theorem of Coburn from the 1960s. The theory has recently been reinvigorated through Xin Li's construction of semigroup C*-algebras. Li's construction has introduced new and interesting classes of C*-algebras, which have deep connections to number theory and dynamical systems. One connection that will be thoroughly explored through this meeting is that to the representation theory of totally disconnected locally compact groups.
