Appel à candidature pour les Fellowships Lie-Størmer-CIMPA 2025

Ce cours est une introduction aux concepts mathématiques fondamentaux qui sous-tendent le traitement moderne des données, la théorie du codage et la cryptographie. En mettant l'accent à la fois sur la compréhension théorique et la pertinence pratique, les étudiant·es exploreront les idées clés de la théorie des nombres, de l'algèbre et des mathématiques discrètes telles qu'elles s'appliquent à la représentation des données, aux codes correcteurs d'erreurs et à la communication sécurisée.

Quantum Computing

Le CEMRACS est une école d'été internationale de 6 semaines organisée presque chaque été depuis 1996 au CIRM (Centre International de Rencontres Mathématiques) sur le campus de Luminy près des célèbres calanques de Marseille. En 2025, l'événement sera dédié à l'informatique quantique avec un accent particulier sur deux domaines scientifiques profondément impactés par les ordinateurs quantiques avec d'importantes répercussions sociales : le calcul scientifique et la cryptographie.

Representations, Moduli and Duality

The notion of duality in physics has a rich history, going back at least as far as the observation that Maxwell’s theory of elctromagnetism is symmetric after swapping electric and magnetic fields. More generally, dualities in physics can provide a way of relating two seemingly very different physical theories via a nontrivial duality transformation. For instance, S-duality in physics provides a way to swap strongly coupled physical theories for weakly coupled ones [MO77], for which we may use perturbative methods to exactly solve the equations governing the system.

New trends and applications around generalized Fokker-Planck operators

New trends and applications around generalized Fokker-Planck operators This 4-weeks scientific program will be oriented around four related topics: 1. Witten and Bismut deformations of Hodge theory on Riemannian manifolds; 2. Persistent homology and Witten Laplacians; 3. Hypoellipticity and polynomes of vector fields; 4. Applications to molecular dynamics algorithms.

Arithmetic geometry of K3 surfaces

The aim of this programme is to break new ground in the arithmetic theory of K3 surfaces and closely related varieties (e.g., Enriques and elliptic surfaces; hyper-Kähler varieties), capitalising on a web of recent advances and conjectural frameworks. Progress on the arithmetic of K3 surfaces will likely have important consequences for more general questions about Shimura varieties, abelian and hyper-Kähler varieties, their rational and algebraic points. The programme consists of 5 weeks of research collaborations (working groups, research seminars) capped off by a one week workshop.

Higher Rank Geometric Structures

L'étude des sous-groupes discrets des groupes de Lie semi-simples est un domaine qui a une longue histoire et qui est en même temps un sujet de recherche très actif. Elle est au cœur de plusieurs domaines, allant de la géométrie différentielle à la théorie des nombres et, depuis la percée de Margulis dans les années 70, elle est intimement liée aux systèmes dynamiques.

Alors que les développements ultérieurs prennent en compte les phénomènes de rigidité, notre programme se concentrera sur les aspects géométriques des groupes discrets flexibles.

The relation between modular forms and their corresponding L-functions with various disciplines of mathematics has undergone significant evolution in the past century due to the critical role these complex analytical functions play in resolving essential problems and conjectures. The connection of modular forms and their L-functions with number theory, elliptic curves, representation theory, and algebraic geometry, among others, have resulted in diverse generalizations in different directions.

This summer school focuses on number theory and its practical applications in cryptography and coding theory. Broadly speaking, number theory investigates properties of integers, including primes and solutions of Diophantine equations. Despite being a very ancient branch of mathematics, number theory very much remains a dynamic branch of mathematics, with ongoing research uncovering impressive results every year, and with new puzzling questions regularly surfacing.

The goals of the research school we propose are: first, to gather young researchers in order to provide them the basics on Leavitt path algebras, Hochschild (co)homology, K-theory and related topics and also a glimpse of the state of art in the ongoing research carried out within the fields which comprise the subject of Leavitt path algebras, Hochschild (co)homology and K-theory; second, to provide the audience a general view of the results which have been achieved; and, finally, to give a broad picture of some of the research lines which are currently being pursued.

Mathematical and statistical modeling in oncology is a multidisciplinary field that applies mathematical and statistical techniques to understand, describe, and predict various aspects of cancer biology, epidemiology, and treatment. It plays a crucial role in advancing our understanding of cancer, optimizing treatment strategies, and informing healthcare decision-making.
