This school, whose topics lie at the threshold of geometry, topology, algebra and quantum field theory, is the eleventh of a series of summer schools organised in Colombia every other year since July 1999. It is addressed to both physicists and mathematicians with a master’s level in either of the fields and offers courses on the following topics:

The courses are introductory to carry research activity in contemporary trends in Hodge Theory and p-adic Hodge Theory given by main actors in each activity: Hodge structures, Hodge-Tate structures, De Rham Cohomology and Betti Cohomology, Torelli type theorems, Abelian Varieties.

This School aims to bring together graduate students and young researchers from all  regions in Brazil and countries of the South America as audience, and confirmed researchers from all over the world representing different approaches to singularities in Mathematics as speakers.

The summer school will be dedicated to finite point configurations and rigidity, Erdos problems in discrete geometry and frame theory, the Falconer distance conjecture  in  geometric  measure  theory,  discrete  integrable  systems  and connections between these topics.  Participants will  be introduced to various open problems and possible research projects  in these very active research areas.

The goal of this CIMPA research school is twofold. First of all, the school offers a rigorous introduction to the theoretical bases of optimization and optimal control.

The aim of this CIMPA school will be to familiarise graduate students and young researchers with the field of  enumerative and analytic combinatorics,  and to show its many connections to other areas,  especially computer science.  The courses  range from introductory to  more advanced levels.

One of the fascinating bridges between  classical  mechanics  and quantum physics  is expressed  in the fact that the length spectrum  and the Laplace  spectrum  of a closed Riemannian  manifold determine  each other (at least generically). The main goal of this school  is to introduce  graduate  students  and young  researchers to basic facts on these two spectra, and to the above correspondence.

The school aims at introducing graduate students and young researchers to the mathematic of climate science. Lectures will cover key topics in the field focusing on their mathematical complexity and dimension. Climate science is genuinely interdisciplinary and this is reflected in the breath of topics offered in the school: predictability, data assimilation, climate prediction, climate sensitivity and thermodynamics.

The main theme of the proposed school are graph algebras, which are objects of growing interest that lie at the boundary between algebra and analysis among other mathematical fields. Despite being introduced only about a decade ago, Leavitt path algebras, as algebraic counterpart of graph C ∗ -algebras, have arisen in a variety of different contexts as diverse as symbolic dynamics, noncommutative geometry, representation theory, and number theory.

The CIMPA school « Structures ordonnées et leurs applications en finance » claims to be multidisciplinary, while fostering constructive and positive interactions between the different fields that will be covered by the occurrence. Thus, this school is based upon two main lines of action, namely, Mathematical Finance and Stochastic Calculus. However, the look at these topics will be given from an "Order" point of view, that is, within the framework of Algebraic and Analytic Ordered Structures.
