Winter School: Categorification, representation theory and symplectic geometry
Dates: November 20-24, 2017
Venue: HIM lecture hall, Poppelsdorfer Allee 45, Bonn
Organizers: Anne-Laure Thiel, Daniel Tubbenhauer
There is a fruitful interplay between categorification, representation theory and symplectic geometry, and our intention is to highlight some of it in detail. This winter school is mainly directed at PhD students and young postdocs. We hope to bring together researchers as well as students who want to learn more about the various presented aspects of these broad fields.
Lecturers:
- Eugene Gorski (University of California, Davis): Hilbert schemes and knot homology
- Yankı Lekili (King's College, London): Fukaya categories and their appearance in representation theory
- Andrew Mathas (University of Sydney): Cyclotomic KLR algebras
- Volodymyr Mazorchuk (Uppsala University): Introduction to 2-representation theory
- Catharina Stroppel (Universität Bonn): Springer fibres and generalised KLR algebras
The seat limit of the lecture hall has been reached, and THE REGISTRATION IS NOW CLOSED. If you still want to attend the workshop, then please contact the organizers and you will be put on the waiting list. If there is any cancellation you will then be contacted.
