The ASReCoM aim is to fill in the gap between the theoretical part of
algebraic geometry and the applications to problem solving and computational
modeling in engineering in signal processing and information theory which
involve non trivial knowledge of algebra and geometry. The students of this
school will receive both theoretical and practical insight in those topics and
as it is traditional on modeling schools also in the software needed for
dealing with those modeling problems.

The aim of the school is to familiarize the participants with the concepts of singularities of algebraic and analytic spaces and holomorphic and real analytic maps and foliations. The approach will be geometric, algebraic, topological as well as analytic. The lectures will be introductory, focusing on the general aspects of singularity theory as well as on low dimensional cases. The goal of each lecture is to bring the participants up to the level necessary to start active research in the subject.

L’Ecole de Recherche du CIMPA « Statistique, environnement et changement climatique » est destinée à exposer les méthodes statistiques modernes pour traiter des problèmes et des données dans les domaines de l’environnement et du climat. Ces données pourront être météorologiques, physiques, hydrologiques, épidémiologiques, biométriques, agronomiques, liées à la pollution en milieu urbain et en milieu rural,... Au niveau théorique, quatre thématiques reprendront les différentes approches le plus souvent utilisées pour aborder ce type de données :

The aim of this school is to introduce the younger researchers and graduate students from Colombia and north of Latin America to recent results in difference equations. We will focalize on Galois theory for linear systems of difference equations and present it from different perspectives : algorithmic, algebraic, analytic, arithmetical and geometrical. We will insist on the interplay between all these aspects and applications to arithmetic or to integrability of dynamical systems.

The purpose of this school is to allow young researchers to acquire the main notions of symplectic geometry and low-dimensional topology, and to access the recent developments in these domains. The program of the school will make a wide part for the various aspects of the interactions between symplectic geometry, contact topology on one hand, and knot theory, topology of low-dimensional manifolds on the other hand, in particular Floer homology and its derivatives.
