Géométrie Algébrique en Liberté (GAeL), Romania, June 17-21, 2019

The conference "Géométrie Algébrique en Liberté (GAeL) " brought together 76 young researchers in algebraic geometry, both PhD students and young postdocs. Among them there were 55 supported participants, 6 global and 2 local organizers. There were three senior speakers. The three invited senior speakers each presented a mini-courses about important modern areas of algebraic geometry. Each mini-course consisted of four lectures, each lasting one hour. In addition to the mini-courses, there were 12 junior talks given by selected participants, presenting their own research. All participants got the occasion to display their research during the poster session.

Isfahan Conference on Representations of Algebras, Iran, April 16-19, 2019

Representation Theory is a central branch of modern mathematics that studies realizations of abstract non-linear structures using classical linear and/or combinatorial concrete structures like matrices, linear operators and quivers. It is a very active and dynamic area, both heavily influenced by important applications to algebra, combinatorics, geometry, topology, analysis, category theory, number theory, mathematical physics and other branches of mathematics and physics.
The aim of this school was to introduce some of the currently most active research topics of the subject mainly to the Iranian algebra community and also to neighboring countries. The emphasis was on background theories and connections to more classical theory. Some of the central topics that were discussed by well-known experts were: support varieties and connection to group representations, triangulated categories, categorical and combinatorial aspects of recent generalizations of tilting theory, and model theoretical aspects of representation theory.

Summer School: Combinatorics meets Algebra, Geometry and Optimization - ECCO 2018, Colombia, June 5-16, 2018

This school was the sixth "Encuentro Colombiano de Combinatoria (ECCO)” (Colombian Meeting on Combinatorics). Previous meetings took place in Bogotá (2003, 2008, 2012, and 2014), and in Medellín (2016). The main objective of the school was to bring young mathematicians from the region into close contact with international researchers and leading experts in various fields of combinatorics and its applications. The aim was to promote mathematical research among young students in a motivating environment and to consolidate a regional research network in combinatorics. The two weeks of the school consisted of four mini courses, exercise sessions, a Sage Math tutorial, and research talk given by the participants.
