Focused Research: Number Theory and Function Fields at the Crossroads 2016

12 Jan 2016, by cathhoward in Events

20 – 22 January 2016
​Department of Mathematics, University of Exeter, UK

Funded by the Heilbronn Institute 10th Anniversary Focused Research Grant


The main aim of the workshop is to discuss new ideas and recent trends in the subject and to formulate some new and ambitious problems, as well as brainstorm various ideas for solving them. There will be a small number of main lectures delivered by more senior and established mathematicians, a number of short talks given by postdocs followed by discussion sessions. The expectation is that a number of new and exciting collaborations will be initiated due to the meeting.
