Höchstdotierter Mathematikpreis in Deutschland geht an Don Zagier

München, 25. März 2024. Die Carl Friedrich von Siemens Stiftung verleiht den Gumin Preis für Mathematik an Don Zagier, bis 2019 Direktor am Bonner Max-Planck-Institut für Mathematik. Die Stiftung würdigt hiermit die bahnbrechende Forschungsarbeit des Preisträgers zur Zahlentheorie und zur Theorie der Modulformen.

Thomas O. Höllmann, Vorsitzender des Stiftungsvorstands: „Mit Don Zagier geht der Gumin Preis 2024 wieder an einen auf seinen Spezialgebieten seit Jahrzehnten herausragenden Mathematiker. Neben der Zahlentheorie und der Theorie der Modulformen forscht der Preisträger auch im Bereich der Topologie. Letzteres schafft sogar eine kleine Gemeinsamkeit mit der frühen Arbeit Heinz Gumins, dem Namensgeber des Preises. Unser Dank gilt unserer Fachjury, deren sorgfältige Recherche diese Preisverleihung erst möglich macht.“

Workshop "Higher Geometric Structures along the Lower Rhine XVII", May 2 - 3, 2024

Organiser(s): 
Christian Blohmann, Marius Crainic, Ioan Marcut, Ieke Moerdijk, Steffen Sagave
Datum: 
Don, 02/05/2024 - 12:00 - Fre, 03/05/2024 - 17:00
Location: 
MPIM Lecture Hall

This is the seventeenth of a series of  short workshops jointly organized by the Geometry/Topology groups in Bonn, Nijmegen, and Utrecht, all situated along the Lower Rhine. The focus lies on the development and application of new structures in geometry and topology such as Lie groupoids, differentiable stacks, Lie algebroids, generalized complex geometry, topological quantum field theories, higher categories, homotopy algebraic structures, higher operads, derived categories, and related topics.

Workshop on "Dualisable Categories & Continuous K-theory"

Workshop on "Dualisable Categories & Continuous K-theory", September 9 - 13, 2024

Algebraic K-theory is an object that sits at the centre of large parts of algebra, geometry, and topology because of its universal role as a receptacle to count other mathematical objects with signs. However, since its invention, a phenomenon often called the Eilenberg swindle - which says that the algebraic K-theory of a category which is too large must necessarily be zero - has been accepted as a fundamental limit to the theory.

Graduate Research Opportunities for Women at Bonn 2024 (GROW@Bonn 2024)

GROW@Bonn 2024 is for all students of underrepresented gender identities in mathematics, especially female students, who are interested in learning about graduate programmes and further opportunities in research, both within and outside academia. The conference is open to Bachelor and Master students from universities in Germany and neighbouring countries, including international students. It is possible to apply for funding for hotel and/or travel costs in the registration.

Talks and panels will be in English, but many of the mentors/volunteers/organisers will be able to speak in German and possibly other languages.

The conference will feature

- A plenary talk;
- Research talks by faculty and PhD students;
- Panel discussions about graduate research in the mathematical sciences;
- Networking and mentoring opportunities;
- Advice on preparing applications for graduate school (Master and PhD).

All interested students must register beforehand (registration form will follow), regardless of whether you are applying for funding. Confirmed participants will be notified by email.

We are currently looking for local mathematicians who would like to come and chat with our participants at GROW@Bonn 2024. Please register here to volunteer.

In case you have any questions, please contact conference$@$mpim-bonn$.$mpg$.$de.

Registration

As of February 14, 2024 the registration is closed.
