Representation theory's hidden motives

Conference at Münster and Sydney
27 September - 1 October 2021

In recent years, motivic techniques have been applied in several branches of representation theory, for example in geometric and modular representation theory. The goal of this workshop is to bring together researchers in these areas in order to foster new synergies in topics such as foundational aspects of the theory of motives, Tate motives on varieties of representation-theoretic origin, motivic aspects of the Langlands program, and motives of classifying spaces.

All participants are required to confirm their immunisation status (via vaccination or convalescence) or present a negative test result obtained from a certified testing centre within the last 48 hours ("3 G rule").
