27 – July 1 ICERMWorkshop: Illustrating MathematicsLocation: ICERM at Brown University, 121 South Main St.,Providence, Rhode Island.Research and outreach are normally thought to dividemathematics in two. This separation is, however, com-pletely artificial; it is impossible to ”find” a mathematicalidea without explaining it. Exploration and expositionare two sides of the same coin. One striking example ofthis is the epochal work of William Thurston; often histheorems were accompanied by pictures, and computerprograms, illustrating the underlying ideas. The goal ofthis conference is to bring together mathematicians froma range of fields, and practitioners from the digital arts(animation, 3D printing, laser cutting, CNC routing, virtualreality, computer games, etc). The attendees will sharetheir expertise in mathematics and with the proceduraltools used to illustrate mathematics. In addition to talksin the traditional style, we plan to hold several workshopsto train attendees about a variety of digital media, inparticular 3D printing.URL:icerm.brown.edu/topical_workshops/tw16-1-im/

25 – August 5 Summer Graduate School: Chip Firing andTropical CurvesLocation:Mathematical Sciences Research Institute, Berke-ley, California.

Tropical geometry uses a combination of techniques fromalgebraic geometry, combinatorics, and convexpolyhedralgeometry to study degenerations of algebraic varieties;the simplest tropical objects are tropical curves, whichone can think of as ”shadows” of algebraic curves. Linearequivalence of divisors on an abstract tropical curve isdetermined by a simple but rich combinatorial processcalled ”chip firing”, which was discovered independentlyin the discrete setting by physicists and graph theorists.From a pedagogical point of view, one can view tropicalcurves as a combinatorial model for the highly analogousbut more abstract theory of algebraic curves, but thereis in fact much more to the story than this: one canuse tropical curves and chip firing to prove theoremsin algebraic geometry and number theory. This field isrelatively new, so participants will have the opportunityto start from scratch and still get a glimpse of the cuttingedge in this active research area.URL: www.msri.org/summer_schools/777

1 – 9 Alterman Conference on Geometric Algebra andSummer School on Kähler CalculusLocation: University of Transilvania, Brasov, RomaniaThis event comprises two parts, a Clifford Algebra (CA)Conference, and a summer school that promotes theKaehler calculus (KC). This calculus is based on CA of dif-ferential forms and generalizes Cartan’s calculus. It hasdirect application to relativistic quantummechanics (QM)by replacing Dirac’s equation with one for scalar-valueddifferential forms. Spinors then emerge as solutionswith symmetry, antiparticles surge with the same signof energy as particles, and operators are concomitantsof processes rather than ad hoc creations. We shalldeal with applications to mathematical analysis, like thereplacing of Hodge’s theorem with actual integration ofthe differential system that specifies Kaehler’s exteriorand interior derivatives (read curl and divergence). Weshall also deal with an additional generalization toClifford valued differential forms. It takes us beyondDirac type environments into one that seems appropriatefor high energy physics and QM foundations.URL: cs.unitbv.ro/~acami/index.htm

1 – 19 School and Conference on Moduli Spaces, MirrorSymmetry and Enumerative GeometryLocation: ICTP, Trieste, Italy.Moduli spaces and enumerative geometry are importantclassical topics of algebraic geometry. In recent decadesthey have received important new input from theoreticalphysics, among others with the advent of mirror sym-metry, which made surprising predictions for classicalproblems of enumerative geometry. Mirror symmetry hassince developed further and is a subject of intensive study.Many new powerful concepts, tools and techniques havebeen developed in recent years, in part in order to under-stand these predictions. These include moduli spaces ofmaps and Gromov-Witten invariants, virtual fundamentalclasses, Donaldson-Thomas and Pandharipande-Thomasinvariants, stability conditions on derived categories andtheir moduli spaces.
