Since 2012, the Fields Institute has hosted the Fields Medal Symposium to celebrate the achievements of a recent medallist. The Public Opening kicks off the Symposium, and aims to help demystify the medallist's area of research and to provide an opportunity for the general public to enjoy, learn from and be inspired by. This year's Fields Medal Symposium will honour Akshay Venkatesh who was awarded the Fields Medal in 2018. Dr. Venkatesh will kick off the Public Opening with a talk on “Glimpses Through the Lens of Entropy.”

The Iberian Mathematical Meeting is a joint event of the Real Sociedad Matemática Española (RSME) and the Sociedade Portuguesa de Matemática (SPM). It aims at bringing together Spanish and Portuguese and mathematicians from all over the word in order to develop mathematical research for the future. Former editions of the Iberian Mathematical Meeting were held in Lisbon (2007), Badajoz (2008), Braga (2010), Valladolid (2012), Aveiro (2014), Santiago de Compostela (2016) and Évora (2018). Following the tradition of previous meetings, the event is structured around three main scientific areas. In this edition, the scientific areas are: The mathematics of information Calculus of variations Computational Algebra and Applications In addition to the plenary conferences, specific sessions for these three areas will be held with invited speakers as well as a poster session (submissions are welcome!). On behalf of the Organizing Committee, it is a pleasure to invite you to participate in the 8th Iberian Mathematical Meeting, to be held on October 5-7, 2022 at the Institute of Mathematics of the University of Seville, Spain. The registration period is currently open. We look forward to seeing you in Seville !!

This is the 2nd Series of online lectures delivered by researchers in Graph theory. This year, the topics are: Semi-transitively orientable graphs, dominations in graphs, probabilistic methods in graph theory, aspects of directed graphs. The school will run for 4 days, starting 3rd October 2022 until 6th October 2022. On each day the School will start at 15h00 GMT+2. Featured speakers are Professors Sergey Kitaev, Michael Henning, Paul Horn, Gregory Gutin and Mr. Yacong Zhou. And the organisers are Dr. Sonwabile Mafunda and Dr. Kenneth Dadedzi.

A conference on recent developments in the theory of metric and spectral aspects of noncommutative geometry, bringing together experts on quantum metric spaces, spectral action and applications.

Mathematical foundations of data science and its ongoing challenges are rapidly growing fields, encompassing areas such as: network science, machine learning, modelling, information theory, deep and reinforcement learning, applied probability and random matrix theory. Applying deeper mathematics to data is changing the way we understand the environment, health, technology, quantitative humanities, the natural sciences, and beyond ‐ with increasing roles in society and industry. This conference brings together researchers and practitioners to highlight key developments in the state‐of‐the art and find common ground where theory and practice meet, to shape future directions and maximize impact. We particularly welcome talks aimed to inform on recent developments in theory or methodology that may have applied consequences, as well as reports of diverse applications that have led to interesting successes or uncovered new challenges.

This summer school is the first of two which are planned for 2022/23 seeking to bring together doctoral students and postdocs (and also welcomes more experienced researchers) with experts of the analysis on nilpotent Lie groups. The school will take place 19.-23. September 2022 in the picturesque town of Göttingen at the Mathematical Institute. The topic of the school is Singular Integral Operators on Nilpotent Lie Groups and Related Topics, in particular: Harmonic Analysis on the Heisenberg Group, PDE on Nilpotent Lie Groups, Sub-Riemanian Geometry and Nilpotent Lie Groups, and Singular Integral Operators with Flag Kernels.

The Induction Course for New Lecturers in the Mathematical Sciences has been designed by the mathematics community so that it is ideally suited for anyone who is new to or has limited experience teaching mathematics or statistics within UK higher education. It will be delivered by individuals with significant experience of teaching in the mathematical sciences and will focus upon the specific details and issues that arise in mathematics and statistics teaching and learning within higher education including topics such as: • Lecturing. • Supporting student learning. • Making teaching interactive. • Assessment, examinations and feedback. • Linking teaching & research. • Using technology to enhance teaching and learning. • Using examples and mathematical problem solving. • Teaching statistics and its applications. Additionally, there will be significant opportunities for delegates to discuss their own ideas, challenges and experiences with the session facilitators so that individual queries can be answered.

The aim of the workshop is to bring together the major experts on profinite groups with number theorists working with profinite groups. These mixed meetings were initiated by O.H. Kegel and A. Lubotzky in the late ’80’s and provide an active interaction between group theorists and number theorists.

The conference "Moduli spaces and geometric structures", in honour of Oscar Garcia-Prada on the occasion of his 60th birthday, will take place at ICMAT (Madrid, Spain), 12-16 September, 2022. Please see the website for further information, including the list of invited speakers.

The aim of the conference is to present recent advances in real algebraic geometry and singularity theory. The occasion to organize the event is Wojciech Kucharz's 70th birthday. Further information can be found at our webpage.
