Summer Research School
Applications of Representation Theory in
Topological Data Analysis & Geometric Invariant Theory
June 3-7, 2024
Université du Québec à Montréal (UQAM), Montréal, Canada
Organizers: Thomas Brüstle, Calin Chindris, Harm Derksen, Kaveh Mousavand
Mini-courses:
Representation Theory and Topological Data Analysis (by Michael Lesnick)
Complexity of Algebras and Geometric Invariant Theory (by Harm Derksen)
Registration closed on February 1st , 2024, and the school has reached the full capacity.
This summer school will explore some of the emerging applications of representation theory of quivers and algebras, particularly their fruitful connections to Topological Data Analysis (TDA) and Geometric Invariant Theory (GIT). Through two mini-courses offered by distinguished experts in the aforementioned areas, these new connections will be introduced to a wider range of researchers and junior participants. Additionally, the program includes some research talks related to the mini-courses, a poster session, as well as several discussion sessions to stimulate colaborative research.
Research Talks:
Ben Blum-Smith (John Hopkins University, USA)
Peter Bubenik (University of Florida, USA)
Abigail Hickok (Columbia University, USA)
Harold Nieuwboer (University of Copenhagen, Denmark)
Rafael Oliveira (University of Waterloo, Canada)
Jose Perea (Northeastern University, USA)
Francesca Tombari (Max Planck Institute, Germany)
