Topics in Algebra

Trento, 1-2 September 2022

Andrea Caranti and Carlo Maria Scoppola have played an important role in Italian Mathematics, with particular regard to numerous aspects of algebra such as Group Theory, Lie Algebras, Applications to Cryptography and Coding Theory, Number Theory and more.

Andrea and Carlo both completed their university studies in Rome, then moved to Trento, where Andrea is still teaching, awaiting retirement in 2022. Carlo instead moved first to Rome and, since 1997, to L'Aquila. He is retired since October 2021. Both, in addition to having played an important role in research, contributed to Italian Mathematics by holding various institutional positions.

On the occasion of their retirement, we organize a conference to celebrate their careers and their contributions to algebra.
