MATRIX Research Program
Low Dimensional Topology: Invariants of Links, Homology Theories, and Complexity
I co-organized a three-week Matrix research program between 2 Jun 2024 - 21 Jun 2024 that brought together world leading specialists in different areas of knot theory, both from Australia and internationally, for a focused research program that encouraged collaboration between mathematicians at all career stages.
This MATRIX research program was partially supported by Monash University, Simons fund, AMSI and AustMS through the AMSI-AustMS Workshop Funding program, and benefits from the SMRI International Visitor Program.
