Topology, representation theory and higher structures Newton Institute Satellite programme Sabhal Mor Ostaig - Isle of Skye, Scotland This is the first announcement for a 4-week satellite programme of the Newton Institute that will take place in the Gaelic college Sabhal Mor Ostaig on the Isle of Skye. The first two weeks are designed for collaborative research on the themes of the programme, with minimal planned activities. We can host up to 40 participants during these two weeks. Week 3 will be a workshop targeted at younger mathematicians and others who are interested in learning about the themes of the programme. Two-hour introductory talks will be given every morning during this week. Afternoon contributed talks by the participants will be solicited at a later stage. The following mathematicians have agreed to give the introductory talks: Julie Bergner (Homotopy Theory) Bernhard Hanke (Geometry) Markus Linkelmann (Representation Theory) Christoph Schweigert (Quantum Algebra) Karen Vogtman (Geometric Group Theory) Week 4 will be an international conference, with morning plenary talks and contributed afternoon sessions. The following mathematicians will give plenary talks: Tobias Barthel (Homotopy Theory) Diarmuid Crowley (Geometry) Pavel Etingof (Quantum Algebra) Kathryn Hess (Homotopy Theory) Srikanth Iyengar (Quantum Algebra) Dominic Joyce (Geometry) Kathryn Mann (Geometric Group Theory) Julie Plavnik (Representation Theory) Andrew Putman (Geometric Group Theory) Catharina Stroppel (Representation Theory) The registration link ( https://forms.gle/R7ihUWEbK7wGCrcbA) and more information about the programme can be found at https://www.newton.ac.uk/event/trh/ which will be updated regularly. Registration will close on 31st January 2024. Because of space limitations at the venue, we might not be able to accommodate all applicants. We will respond to all applications in early February, after the registration deadline. Childcare for children age 4 and below may be available.
