Mon, December 7, 2020 - Fri, December 18, 2020

Hyperbolic Differential Equations in Geometry and Physics

Dates: 7–18 December 2020
Venue: University of Melbourne, Creswick campus
Water Street, Creswick, Victoria, 3363, Australia

Program Description

Non-linear differential equations of hyperbolic type underlie many of the main focus points in mathematical physics and geometric analysis. Their study influences and connects topics like general relativity, fluid dynamics, spectral theory, and dynamical systems. Our conference will bring together world leaders in cutting edge research areas to discuss hyperbolic equations and their many facets; this includes experts in fluids working on the Navier–Stokes equations, in general relativity working on important problems like cosmic censorship and global stability of special space-times, and in micro-local analysis, which has recently found important use in well-posedness problems for quasi-linear PDEs.

Groups and Geometries

Dates: 30 November. – 4 December 2020
Venue: University of Melbourne, Creswick campus
Water Street, Creswick, Victoria, 3363, Australia

Program Description

In the 1950’s Jacques Tits provided a converse to Klein’s Erlangen program showing that algebraic groups could be understood by the study of geometric objects (buildings) associated to them. In fact his theory is so all-encompassing it also allows us to study groups over local fields, which are of crucial importance in number theory and representation theory. Moreover, the geometry of buildings is very rich in itself and buildings are a key family of examples in geometric group theory, as they form spaces of non-positive curvature (CAT(0) spaces). Lastly the development of buildings played a crucial role in the classification of the finite simple groups. The aim of the meeting is to gather world leading experts and early career researchers working on the theory of buildings and its connections to adjacent fields to investigate the research avenues that have opened up in recent years by means of some spectacular breakthroughs in the field.

Frontiers in Representation Theory

Dates: 14 Sept. – 2 October 2020
Venue: University of Melbourne, Creswick campus
Water Street, Creswick, Victoria, 3363, Australia

Program Description

Representation theory and homotopy theory are two central branches of mathematics. In recent years, new exciting and similar structures have been found in both areas. This workshop will bring together leading mathematicians interested in these two important areas of mathematics. The aim of this workshop is to encourage and support the interaction and collaboration between the two areas, and hope to make more deep connections. The program will consist of lecture series by prestigious international leading experts on cutting-edge topics in representation theory and homotopy theory.

Mathematics of Sea Ice and Ice SheetsAMSI logo

Dates: 9–13 November
Venue: The University of Newcastle

The cryosphere is one of the critical components of the earth climate systems, and it has been the subject of significant transformation in recent years in response to climate change. There are several mathematical challenges to modelling this system, and the program aims to bring other researchers who are experts in the mathematical modelling of ice sheets and sea ice, two related by separated parts of the cryosphere. We anticipate the workshop will run for five days, with the first day being devoted to introductory lectures and the final day been given over to focused research sessions.

Wed, September 30, 2020 - Fri, October 2, 2020
Location: online via Zoom

It has become increasingly clearer that we will not be allowed to have large gatherings by the time of our annual ACSME conference, but the good news is that the conference will still go ahead online.

The online conference will be held on September 30 to October 2. The new theme for ACSME 2020 is A science education for uncertain times, and the format will follow that of previous conferences, with invited speakers, panels, and poster and presentations. Discipline workshops will be held on the third day, as usual.

Submissions are now open and will close on June 5 for abstracts, and June 19 for refereed papers. Further information is available on the ACSME 2020 website.

We look forward to receiving your contribution and to seeing you at the conference.

Finally, I am delighted to let you know that the Western Australia team has kindly agreed to host ACSME in Perth in 2021 around the equity theme that was proposed for this year.

Regards
Cristina Varsavsky
Director, ACDS Teaching & Learning Centre

Mathematics of String Theory @ UNEAMSI logo

Dates: 14–18 December
Venue: University of New England, School of Science and Technology (C26)

While its role as a theory of the fundamental forces of nature is still being settled, the mathematics of string theory has led to some extraordinary advances in areas of pure mathematics. These areas range from algebraic and enumerative geometry to number theory as well as inspiring new mathematics such as Hitchin’s generalised geometry. The significance of these advances have been recognised by many awards including three Fields medals in recent decades. The research aim of this workshop is to bring together mathematicians from Australia and world leading international experts to discuss the latest developments in the physical mathematics of string theory and its umbrella of related subjects. These topics range from conformal field theory and vertex algebras to arithmetic & number theoretic properties of Calabi–Yau’s to integrable systems, AdS/CFT, supersymmetry and supergravity.
