Motivic Midlands

Description

The summer school Motivic Midlands is aimed at early career researchers working in motives, neighbouring areas, or those who simply want to learn more about the subject.

Motives are fundamental objects associated to algebro-geometric spaces: they encode deep topological, (co)homological, and arithmetic information about varieties. They are at the core of lots of important conjectures and theories in complex geometry, arithmetic geometry, number theory, theoretical physics, algebraic topology,...

This workshop aims to introduce motives to a broad audience, focusing on four themes: introduction to motives; motives in algebraic geometry and moduli theory; applications of motives to number theory and periods; and motivic tensor-triangular geometry.
