The goal of this workshop is to bring together industry professionals and researchers in academic institutions in order to foster the exchange of ideas and to better align the collaboration opportunities among the two communities. The workshop includes a wide span of cutting edge topics ranging from data encryption, medical implant technology, machine learning aspects, electrochemistry, energy storage, and semiconductor modelling and simulation, among others.

The conference will bring together experts in representation theory and algebraic combinatorics, ,and is part of a broader special semester on "Modern Perspectives in Representation Theory" at the Sydney Mathematical Research Institute, running from May 5 to June 13, 2025.

The aim of this workshop is to bring together participants from computational mathematics and gravitational wave astronomy to tackle computational challenges in leveraging data-driven methods in key areas of gravitational wave data analysis in order to maximize the science output of the ongoing and upcoming observations. The areas of focus will be: (i) noise classification and detection, (ii) waveform modeling and uncertainty quantification, and (iii) source parameter and astrophysical population Bayesian inference.

This conference has been organized around the general trend of application of geometrical ideas in mechanics, physics and biology. It is addressed to mathematicians and mathematical physicists interested in contemporary mechanics, physics and biology and associated mathematical questions. The application of differential geometry to find new results on manifolds, relativity, hypersurfaces, N-body problem, gauge fields, geometric quantization, rotational sequences, minimal surfaces, biophysical systems, coherent states, Dirac and Seiberg-Witten monopoles, rigid body dynamics, Toda chains dynamics, geometric algebra, Kähler calculus, thermodynamics, etc. The meeting allows participants coming from different fields to share and interchange geometrical ideas among them with the leading role of differential geometry. The contributions presented at the conference will be invited to be submitted to the series on Geometry, Integrability and Quantization or to the Journal of Geometry and Symmetry in Physics.

Recently, a number of long-standing conjectures in the field of matroid theory, and more generally in combinatorics, have been resolved by the injection of algebraic geometry and Hodge theory into the subject. A non-exhaustive list includes Adiprasito, Huh, and Katz’s resolution of the Heron–Rota–Welsh conjecture, the proof of Dowling–Wilson’s top-heavy conjecture by Braden, Huh, Matherne, Proudfoot, and Wang, as well as the proof of Brylawski and Dawson’s conjectures by Ardila, Denham and Huh. This Oberwolfach Seminar will present these (and related) novel developments in an approachable way to graduate students and postdocs.

Can abstract theory capture concrete behaviours and lead to a new understanding of nonlinear parabolic SPDEs? In this seminar, we present recent developments on stochastic partial differential equations (SPDEs) in critical spaces, where ‘criticality’ refers to local scaling invariance of the equation and is captured through abstract conditions. Combining tools from PDEs, probability theory and functional analysis, the theory of critical spaces provides the optimal setting to study the well-posedness of parabolic SPDEs and has already led to new insights into stochastic versions of reaction-diffusion and fluid dynamics models. While the first steps have been made, the seminar prepares to take it to the next level. Deadline for application: 1 March 2025
