Übersicht Konferenzpogramme

The workshop is aimed at algebraic and arithmetic geometers curious about the potential application of model theory in their research, as well as at model theorists who are keen to learn how their tools may be extended to answer questions of geometric interest.

Model Theory meets GGT is a week-long conference aimed at bringing together young researchers in the areas of Model Theory and Geometric Group Theory. These two areas exhibit a rich interplay, and the mini-courses and research talks will be aimed to display topics in this intersection. Furthermore, there will be a lightning talks session in which all participants are encouraged to give a brief introduction to their own research and interests, so as to foster even more interaction between the participants.

This workshop on Stochastic Partial Differential Equations (SPDE) aims to provide an intensive series of lectures delivered by leading researchers in the field. Over the course of a week, young researchers will have the opportunity to deepen their understanding of SPDE and foster scientific exchange. The goal is to stimulate collaboration and advance knowledge among junior researchers through expert-led sessions and interactive discussions.

Both, non-reciprocity and mass conservation, have far reaching generic consequences for the universal dynamical behaviour of the concerned wide range of non-equilibrium systems. Results of many particular approaches to the mathematical modelling of such systems have shown that classical concepts of nonlinear and statistical physics, such as phase transitions, need to be reconsidered and developed further.

This is a regular seminar of research groups from Bielefeld and Muenster about topics related to geometric group theory. In this way, it is very much related to research topics studied in the Cluster of Excellence in Muenster and the TRR 358 in Bielefeld-Paderborn.

The conference is a broad mathematical conference across all areas aimed at the highest standards. We would like to draw a picture of current developments in mathematics and get an overview of important results.

Bringing together a small group of leading young experts in their respective research areas, the goal of the workshop is to stimulate collaboration and exchange between participants. The event will provide specialists' points of view on recent developments in stochastic analysis, with a particular focus on singular stochastic PDEs.

The Young Topologists Meeting (YTM) is an annual international conference aimed at early-career researchers in topology - both pure and applied - covering the whole breadth of the subject. It serves as a platform for graduates, PhD researchers and early postdocs to present their research, exchange ideas and build international connections.

pyMOR School is an annual event for future and current pyMOR users and developers. The School will offer interactive introductory lectures on some of the most important MOR methods and how to use these methods with pyMOR.

Analytic torsion in its many facets is an important secondary spectral invariant studied in global analysis. The aim of this conference is to present a panorama of recent developments and interactions with other fields, that the study of analytic torsion has seen in the last years.

The last several years have witnessed a significant intensification of the connections between probability (e.g., random walks and percolation) and ergodic theory, especially in treating questions that relate dynamical behaviour with analytic and geometric properties of groups such as amenability, property (T), and the Haagerup property. The meeting will serve to further strengthen these connections by promoting interaction between different communities of researchers.

This is the ninth edition of a series of biennial meetings. The 6th Hausdorff medalist(s) will be awarded at this meeting. As part of the ceremony, the medalist(s) is/are going to give their Hausdorff lecture.

The Buildings conference is an annual meeting and in 2024 we will celebrate its 30th edition. The conference will be held in honor of Linus Kramer's 60th birthday. Some of the main topics of the conference are: generalized polygons and related geometries.

Due to a large number of common mathematical interests in very diverse fields of mathematics, we decided to introduce a themed meeting bringing together researchers from the two institutions in related areas. The main objective is to get an idea about research interests and projects in each others' department (specifically at the PhD and postdoc level) and to provide a forum for future collaborations. The first theme is in "PDE", with an emphasis on the equations of fluid dynamics and kinetic theory.

Point processes are one of the main building blocks in the description of many spatial random systems. This autumn school aims to foster exchange between young and established researchers and to explore modern research on point processes and their dynamics.

Since Elliotts classification of approximately finite C*-algebras it is well known that there are strong ties between classification theory and approximation theory for C*-algebras. The full depth of this relation became clear only after the groundbreaking work of Eberhard Kirchberg on tensor products and approximation properties of C*-algebras with astounding applications to (on first sight unrelated) important problems: the Connes embedding problem and the classification of (purely infinite) C*-algebras. The meeting will focus on breathtaking recent advances in these topics due to several young rising stars.

The purpose of the meeting is to study relationships between local and global invariants in Riemannian Geometry. Our intention is to bring together experts in the field as well as young mathematicians. The programme of the workshop is structured so that beyond the lectures there will be many opportunities for intensive discussions.

In the past two years, we have seen spectacular developments in elliptic PDE methods applied to complex geometry. Highlights include the L-infinity estimates for solutions to complex Monge-Ampere equations due to Guo-Phong-Tong and Li's proof of the SYZ conjecture for Fermat hypersurfaces. This conference aims to provide an exciting opportunity for the field to come together (for the first time in Germany!) and discuss and disseminate these recent advances.

Mixing phenomena and the evolution and stability of coherent vortex structures and interfaces play an essential role in the dynamics of fluids. Their study has a direct impact on the understanding of turbulent flows with real-world applications in oceanography, atmospheric dynamics, industrial processes and beyond. The Workshop will explore stability and mixing phenomena from a broad intradisciplinary perspective, including PDE techniques, stochastic differential equations, harmonic analysis, optimal transport,  numerical analysis and modeling aspects.

The purpose of the meeting is to discuss suitable abstractions of mathematical concepts used in numerical methods for PDEs and how to derive adequate interfaces for Numerical Software. Experts and young researchers collaborating on the development of the research software framework DUNE met in Münster to discuss challenges and possible solutions in particular for interfaces for high-regularity Finite-Element discretizations, like H² conforming elements.

This summer school provides an introduction to various aspects of t.d.l.c. groups aimed at graduate students and postgraduate fellows. Topics include Cayley-Abels graphs, homological methods, p-adic Lie groups and self-similarity.

Part of the Focus Programme: Actions of totally disconnected locally compact groups on discrete structures

Part of the Focus Programme: Actions of totally disconnected locally compact groups on discrete structures

Many discrete geometric structures admit symmetries that are not determined by a finite substructure. This phenomenon is reflected in the non-discreteness of their automorphism group. Conversely, sufficiently non-discrete t.d.l.c. groups admit geometric actions on such structures. This workshop focuses on the above approaches and their interplay.

A conference on the occasion of Katrin Tent's 60th birthday

The aim of this conference is to bring together researchers working in model theory and group theory, with a particular view towards geometric group theory.

Part of the Focus Programme: Actions of totally disconnected, locally compact groups on discrete structures

This workshop studies the relationship between local, or small-scale, and global, or large-scale, properties of t.d.l.c. groups, which is more subtle than for Lie groups. Small-scale structure, which manifests both in the topological group structure and the objects on which the groups act, interacts with large-scale properties such as simplicity, amenability and quasi-isometry type.

A conference on the occasion of Michael Rapoport's 75th birthday

The geometry of moduli spaces related to the Langlands programme is a rapidly evolving field. We bring together both experts and young researchers to foster these developments.

The "Joint Seminar on Complex Algebraic Geometry and Complex Analysis" is a research seminar, organised by the algebraic and complex geometry research groups in Bochum, Essen, Cologne, Münster, and Wuppertal.

There are three talks per meeting, both by invited guests and by speakers from the organising universities.

This meeting is part of the Priority Programme "Random Geometric Systems" (SPP 2265: "Zufällige geometrische Systeme") which is funded by the German Research Foundation (DFG, deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft) and is devoted to the mathematical analysis of effects and phenomena that emerge from an interplay between randomness and geometry.

This workshop is part of the Topical Program "Cell Dynamics and Mathematical Modeling" which aims at an intensive interaction of biology and mathematics. Biomechanical properties and dynamic shape changes of cells are closely related to their respective state and cellular function. This can be observed, among other things, in the migration of primordial germ cells. Such processes can be well described mathematically, and the influence of important parameters can thus also be analyzed theoretically.

ECIMT is a week-long conference happening in Münster, aiming to bring together young researchers interested in Model Theory, and to explore interactions between Model Theory and other mathematical fields, most notably Combinatorics, Algebra and Number Theory.

We were pleased to welcome the scientists of our Advisory Board and all members of Mathematics Münster to our second Advisory Board Meeting last week - in person and digitally.

With this first MaRDI Workshop on Scientific Computing, we want to bring together researchers from the Scientific Computing community and related disciplines who are interested in the FAIRness of their research data. Apart from presentations on the current MaRDI projects and selected keynote talks, birds-of-a-feather sessions will leave room for discussions and hands-on tutorials.

This meeting will focus on the measurable and topological dynamics of group actions, with emphasis on the cross-pollination of themes and techniques that have been driving these subjects in novel directions over the last few years, ranging in flavour from probability, symbolic dynamics, and combinatorics to Lie groups, representation theory, and operator algebras, and including new types of interactions at the boundary of measure and topology themselves.

The workshop is a joint activity of the Arithmetic Geometry research groups in Bonn, Essen and Münster. The aim of the workshop is to understand the work of Roman Bezrukavnikov about an equivalence between certain constructible sheaves on an affine flag variety and certain coherent sheaves on a variety related to the Springer resolution of the nilpotent cone.

The scope of the Winterschool is to offer an overview of modern themes in Applied Mathematics, ranging from modeling issues in physics and materials science to their mathematical analysis by means of advanced techniques in the theory of PDEs and the Calculus of Variations. Speakers are Andrea Braides (Rome), Lucia Scardia (Edinburgh) and Ulisse Stefanelli (Vienna).

The Cuntz semigroup is a geometric refinement of K-theory that was introduced by Cuntz in the 1970s in his pioneering work on the structure of simple C*-algebras. This powerful invariant has seen many applications in the structure and classification theory of C*-algebras. Recently, it has also become clear that Cuntz semigroups are interesting objects of study in their own right. This workshop will bring together researchers that are interested in the different aspects of Cuntz semigroups in areas such as C*-algebras, dynamical systems, and model theory.

The purpose of the meeting is to study relationships between local and global invariants in Riemannian Geometry.
