In recent years, the representation theory of finite-dimensional algebras has gained increasing prominence, driven by its deep connections and applications to a variety of active areas of mathematics. These include the theory of cluster algebras, topological data analysis, representation theory of posets, and algebraic combinatorics, among others.
With this Special Topics School on "Representation Theory of Algebras and its Applications", we aim to bring together experts, young researchers, and graduate students to explore current developments in the field. The school will offer a series of introductory lecture courses on some of these recent connections, complemented by problem sessions.
Our goal is to foster an interactive and collaborative atmosphere, providing participants with insights into ongoing research directions. The school will also offer opportunities for participants to present their own work, exchange ideas, and build connections within the representation theory community.
The deadline for the application for participation is March 26th, 2026.
Our Global Mobility Fellowships provide participation opportunities for selected researchers and PhD students from countries of the Global South in the Special Topic Schools of the Hausdorff School for Mathematics. For more information, please visit our website.
