The European Mathematical Society

Yerevan State University in association with Institute of Mathematics of the National Academy of Sciences, American University of Armenia, State Engineering University of Armenia and Russian-Armenian (Slavonic) University is organizing the Second International Conference "Mathematics in Armenia: Advances and Perspectives" in August 24 - 31, 2013, which will be held at Yerevan State University Guesthouse in Tsaghkadzor, Armenia. The Conference is dedicated to the 70th anniversary of foundation of Armenian National Academy of Sciences.

SINGULAR DAYS

Singular Days are organized on a more or less regular basis on the topics of singularities arising in non-smooth domains from the view points of partial differential equations and numerical analysis. The 2013 Singular Days are the 7th occurence of the event. The previous ones took place in Lyon (1996), Valenciennes (1998), Le Tronchet (2002), Pont-à-Mousson (2004), Luminy (2007), Berlin (2010).
This time, the event is "augmented" through its extension to integral equations and electromagnetism, celebrating Martin Costabel's 65th birthday.

Low-dimensional topology has seen a proliferation of new invariants and techniques over the last decade or so which are intimately interrelated. The ideas behind them are approachable from a number of points of view: for example from algebraic geometry, differential geometry, algebraic topology, or from representation theory. The invariants include Khovanov homology and related constructions, Floer homologies, and various gauge theories.

The course aims to present a broad selection of these ideas, covering the construction, the properties, and applications.

Joint Events of Colloquium on Differential Geometry and its Applications and IX-th International Conference on Finsler Extensions of Relativity Theory

The term Complex Function Theory signifies a vast literature with several correspondences among a number of different areas in mathematics. Of these, Univalent Function Theory occupies a special place having a long tradition. The main purpose of the symposium is to bring together leading experts as well as young researchers working on topics mainly related to Univalent and Geometric Function Theory and to present their recent work to the mathematical community.

The goal of the conference is to contribute to the development of mathematical sciences and its applications and to bring together the members of the mathematics community, interdisciplinary researches, educators, mathematicians, statisticians and engineers from all over the world.

Keynote speakers and school lecturers: Michel Benaim, Université de Neuchâtel, Switzerland; Jim Cushing, University of Arizona, USA; João Lopes Dias, Universidade Técnica de Lisboa, Portugal; Pedro Duarte, Universidade de Lisboa, Portugal; Diogo Gomes, Universidade Técnica de Lisboa, Portugal; Yunping Jiang, City University of New York, USA; Eric Maskin, Institute for Advanced Studies, USA (schedule permitting); Jorge Pacheco, Universidade do Minho, Portugal; David Rand, University of Warwick, UK; Martin Shubik, Yale University, USA (video lecture); Satoru Takahashi, Princeton University,

The workshop Geometry and Groups after Thurston will consist of a two day mini-course August 27-28, followed by a three day lecture series, August 29-31, 2013.

The Annual Iranian Mathematics Conference has been held since 1970. The 11th, 22nd and 33rd annual Iranian Mathematics Conferences were held in Ferdowsi university of Mashhad and now we are pleased to organize the 44th conference during 27-30 August 2013 in Iran. The conference will provide a forum for mathematicians worldwide and scholar students to present their latest results about all aspects of pure and applied Mathematics and a means to discuss their recent researches with each other.

Bring together pure/applied mathematicians and engineers, with common interest for Geometric tools and their applications for Information analysis, with active participation of young researchers for deliberating emerging areas of collaborative research on “Information Geometry Manifolds and Their Advanced Applications"

A traditional conference focused on general algebra and ordered sets. The scientific program consists of 20- or 30-minute talks by the participants, plus plenary lectures by invited speakers.

Professor Gunnar Kangro (1913-1975), member of the Estonian Academy of Sciences, was the most famous Estonian mathematician of his time. He was a world-class professional in his main research area - summability theory. His excellent courses and textbooks in algebra and analysis advocated the use of new theories developed in the first half of the twentieth century, and led the transition of Estonian mathematics to modern basis. Having also supervised 23 Cand. Sci. Theses, he is fully considered the founder of contemporary Estonian mathematical school.

This research Programme wants to focus on the Geometrical and the Dynamical aspects in the study of integrable systems. We want to specially stress out the following topics in the study of integrable systems: 1- Connections of several aspects showing up in the geometry, topology and dynamics of integrable systems in symplectic manifolds such as singular aspects of integrable systems, Symplectic Topology of integrable systems, Integrability criteria and obstructions to integrability, Connection with Geometric Quantization and integrable systems in contact and Poisson manifolds.

School and workshop on CONFORMAL BLOCKS, VECTOR BUNDLES ON CURVES AND MODULI OF CURVES

The aim of this school/workshop is to give an introduction to conformal blocks, their construction and use as research tools and objects in different branches of algebraic geometry and topology, in particular moduli spaces of algebraic curves and of vector bundles on curves.

5-hour mini-courses will be held by the following speakers:

Prakash Belkale (Univ. North Carolina at Chapel Hill)
Angela Gibney (Univ. of Georgia at Athens)
Christian Pauly (Univ. de Nice Sophia-Antipolis)
