Seminaire de Mathematiques Superieures 2013: Physics and Mathematics of Link Homology June 24, 2013 - July 05, 2013
Parent Program: --
Location: Centre de Recherche Mathematiques; Montreal; Quebec, Canada
Organizers Sergei Gukov (California Institute of Technology), Mikhail Khovanov (Columbia University), Johannes Walcher (McGill University)
Description

Homology theories of knots and links is a burgeoning field at the interface of mathematics with theoretical physics. The 2013 edition of the SMS will bring together leading researchers in mathematics and mathematical physics working in this area, with the aim to educate a new generation of scientists in this exciting subject. The school will provide a pedagogical review of the current state of the various constructions of knot homologies, and also encourage interactions between the communities in order to facilitate development of the unified picture.

Details are available on the SMS Homepage.
 

Special restrictions (for MSRI Support):

  1. In addition to the nomination at MSRI, a separate application via the SMS Homepage is required to participate in this workshop.
