The 12th Midrasha Mathematicae

Higher Teichmüller Theory, Clusters and Quantization

Event date: 11-19 May 2008

General Director: Peter Sarnak, Princeton University

Directors:
Alexander B. Goncharov, Brown University
David Kazhdan, The Hebrew University of Jerusalem

 

The school will highlight two themes: Higher Teichmüller Theory and its quantization, and cluster algebras of finite type and cluster categories. The goal of the school is to promote collaboration and understanding between leading mathematicians in the four following areas: Geometry, Representation Theory, Mathematical Physics and Algebra/Combinatorics.
