Hot Topics: Life after the Telescope Conjecture
Organizers: LEAD Agnes Beaudry (University of Colorado), Michael Hill (University of Minnesota), Vesna Stojanoska (University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign)In June 2023, Burklund, Hahn, Levy, and Schlank surprised the homotopy theory community when they announced a disproof of Ravenel's Telescope Conjecture, a fundamental problem of homotopy theory which had been open for 40 years and was believed to be out of reach. The disproof of the Telescope Conjecture combines some of the most exciting recent developments in homotopy theory. This includes fundamental work on red-shift phenomena and descent in algebraic K-theory, trace methods based on a novel approach to topological Hochschild and cyclic homology, ambidexterity in chromatic homotopy theory, and more.
The workshop will explore this amazing body of work, culminating in its synthesis and ingenious application to disprove the Telescope Conjecture.

Simons Institute for the Theory of Computing and SLMath Joint Workshop: AI for Mathematics and Theoretical Computer Science
Organizers: LEAD Jeremy Avigad (Carnegie Mellon University), María Inés de Frutos-Fernández (Autonomous University of Madrid), Marijn Heule (Carnegie Mellon University), Floris van Doorn (Universität Bonn), Adam Wagner (Worcester Polytechnic Institute)This is an exciting time for mathematics, as new technologies for mathematical reasoning provide novel opportunities for mathematical research, communication, and discovery. Mathlib, a library of formal mathematics, now contains one-and-a-half million lines of code. Important results like the proof of polynomial Freiman-Ruzsa conjecture by Gowers, Green, Manners, and Tao and the exponential improvement to the upper bound on Ramsey's theorem by Campos, Griffiths, Morris, and Sahasrabudhe were formally verified in the Lean proof assistant even before they were accepted to journals. Open problems in combinatorics have been solved with the help of automated reasoning, and AI introduced by Deepmind was deemed to have performed at the level of a silver medalist at the most recent International Mathematical Olympiad.
This workshop will introduce mathematicians and theoretical computer scientists to the technologies that underlie these recent successes, namely, proof assistants, automated reasoning, and machine learning. Talks each morning will survey exciting results in the field, and in the afternoons, we will help participants experiment with the tools to get a sense of what they do. We will also encourage participants to think about how they can use the new technologies in their research.

2025 Workshop on Mathematics and Racial Justice
Organizers: Nathan Alexander (Howard University), Ron Buckmire (Marist College), Kari Kokka (University of Nevada, Las Vegas), Omayra Ortega (Sonoma State University), Victor Piercey (Ferris State University), Robin Wilson (Loyola Marymount University)The overarching goal of the 2025 Workshop on Mathematics and Racial Justice is to extend our explorations of how the mathematical sciences plays a central role in today's movement for racial justice. We will examine the various systems identified in the 2021 Math and Racial Justice workshop and consider the impact of these systems on BIPOC (Black, Indigenous, and people of color) communities. This workshop defines racial justice as the result of intentional, active and sustained anti-racist practices that identify and dismantle racist structures and policies that operate to oppress, disenfranchise, harm, and devalue BIPOC people. This workshop will bring together mathematicians, statisticians, computer scientists, STEM educators, and members of the general public interested in using the tools of these disciplines to critically examine and eradicate racial disparities in society. Researchers with expertise or interest in problems at the intersection of the mathematical sciences and racial justice are strongly encouraged to participate. Thanks to funding from the Mathematical Sciences Institutes Diversity Initiative, there is financial support available for a limited number of attendees. This in-person workshop will take place over three days, May 7-9, 2025, at SLMath in Berkeley, CA. The themes for this year’s workshop are 1) developing racial literacy, 2) science and technology studies, 3) law and policy, and 4) education.

Local Limits of Random Graphs (Paris-Saclay University, France)
Organizers: Ainhoa Aparicio-Monforte (Fondation Mathématique Jacques Hadamard (FMJH)), Alexandra Genesco (Fondation Mathématique Jacques Hadamard (FMJH)), LEAD Pascal Massart (Fondation Mathématique Jacques Hadamard (FMJH))<p>A display of the evolution of an Erdos-Renyi random graph . </p>Random graphs are ubiquitous in modern probability theory. Besides their intrinsic mathematical beauty, they are also used to model complex networks. In the early 2000’s, I. Benjamini and O. Schramm introduced a mathematical framework in which they endowed the set of locally finite rooted connected graphs with the structure of a Polish space, called the local topology. The goal of this summer school is to introduce the framework of local limits of random graphs, the concepts of Benjamini-Schramm (or unbiased) limits and unimodularity, as well as the most important applications. The lectures will be delivered by Nicolas Curien (Prof. Paris-Saclay University) and Justin Salez (Prof. Université Paris-Dauphine) and will be complemented by many problem sessions, where students will work in small groups under the guidance of teaching assistants, who are researchers in the field.

Mathematics of Climate, Sea Ice, and Polar Ecosystems (Fairbanks, Alaska)
Organizers: Kenneth Golden (University of Utah), Jody Reimer (University of Utah)From micro to macro, sea ice supports life in the polar regions. Left: illustration of the porous sea ice microstructure, home to a microbial community of ice endemic organisms including bacteria and algae. Right: two penguins on Antarctic sea ice.In this summer school, students will be introduced to mathematical and computational modeling of sea ice and polar ecosystems in a warming climate. As a material, sea ice is a multiscale composite structured on length scales ranging from tenths of millimeters to tens of kilometers. From tiny brine inclusions and surface melt ponds of increasing complexity, to ice floes of varying sizes in a seawater host, a principal challenge is how to find sea ice effective properties that are relevant to larger scale climate and process models, given data on smaller scale structures. Similarly, the sea ice ecosystem ranges from algae living in the brine inclusions to charismatic megafauna like penguins and polar bears, whose diets depend critically, down the line, on the tiny sea ice extremophiles. The dynamics of sea ice microbial communities are regulated by the physics of the ice microstructure, and, in turn, many of these microbes modify their environment by secreting extracellular polymeric substances. In addition to sea ice and its ecosystems, we will consider mathematical modeling of the broader climate system, including energy balance models, climate and ecological tipping points, and global circulation models.

New Perspectives on Discriminants and Applications (Leipzig, Germany)
Organizers: Eliana Duarte (Centro de Matemática da Universidade do Porto), Serkan Hosten (San Francisco State University), Simon Telen (Max-Planck-Institut)<p>The discriminant ∆ detects singular varieties. The picture shows three different scenarios: solutions of quadratic polynomials, cubic plane curves and cubic surfaces.</p>This summer school will offer a hands-on introduction to discriminants, with a view towards modern applications. Starting from the basics of computational algebraic geometry and toric geometry, the school will gently introduce participants to the foundations of discriminants. A particular emphasis will be put on computing discriminants of polynomial systems using computer algebra software. Then, we will dive into three applications of discriminants: algebraic statistics, geometric modeling, and particle physics. Here, discriminants contribute to the study of maximum likelihood estimation, to finding practical parametrizations of geometric objects, and to computations of scattering amplitudes. We will explain recently discovered unexpected connections between these three applications. In addition to lectures, the summer school will have daily collaborative exercise sessions which will be guided by the teaching assistants and will include software demonstrations.

Computer Assisted Proofs in Applied Mathematics (SLMath)
Organizers: LEAD Jonathan Jaquette (New Jersey Institute of Technology), Evelyn Sander (George Mason University)One of the core elements of applied mathematics is mathematical modeling consisting of nonlinear equations such as ODEs, and PDEs. A fundamental difficulty which arises is that most nonlinear models cannot be solved in closed form. Computer assisted proofs are at the forefront of modern mathematics and have led to many important recent mathematical advances. They provide a way of melding analytical techniques with numerical methods, in order to provide rigorous statements for mathematical models that could not be treated by either method alone. In this summer school, students will review standard computational and analytical techniques, learn to combine these techniques with more specialized methods of interval arithmetic, and apply these methods to establish rigorous results in otherwise intractable problems

Geometry and Dynamics in Higher Rank Lie Groups (St. Mary's College)
Organizers: Richard Canary (University of Michigan), Sara Maloni (University of Virginia), Wenyu Pan (University of Toronto), Cagri Sert (University of Zurich), LEAD Tengren Zhang (National University of Singapore)<p>Flats and hyperbolic planes in a higher rank symmetric space</p> Drawn by Steve Trettel.Lie groups are central objects in modern mathematics; they arise as the automorphism groups of many homogeneous spaces, such as flag manifolds and Riemannian symmetric spaces. Often, one can construct manifolds locally modelled on these homogeneous spaces by taking quotients of their subsets by discrete subgroups of their automorphism groups. Studying such discrete subgroups of Lie groups is an active and growing area of mathematical research. The objective of this summer school is to introduce young researchers to a class of discrete subgroups of Lie groups, called Anosov subgroups.

Topological and Geometric Structures in Low Dimensions (SLMath)
Organizers: LEAD Kenneth Bromberg (University of Utah), Kathryn Mann (Cornell University)<p>Laminations arise naturally in hyperbolic geometry and (pseudo-) Anosov flows [Image by Jeffrey Brock]</p>This school will serve as an introduction to the SLMath semester “Topological and Geometric Structures in Low-Dimensions”. The school consists of two mini-courses: one on Teichmüller Theory and Hyperbolic 3-Manifolds and the other on Anosov Flows on Geometric 3-Manifolds. Both topics lie at the interface of low-dimensional geometric topology (specifically, surfaces, foliations, and 3-manifolds) and low-dimensional dynamics. The first course will be targeted towards students who have completed the standard first year graduate courses in geometry, topology, and analysis while the second course will geared towards more advanced students who are closer to beginning research. However, we expect that all students will benefit from both courses.

Summer Graduate School Mathematical Spin Glass Theory (Courant, NY)
Organizers: Antonio Auffinger (Northwestern University), Wei-Kuo Chen (University of Minnesota), LEAD Eliran Subag (Weizmann Institute of Science)While their original aim was to explain the strange behavior of certain magnetic alloys, the study of spin glass models has led to a far-reaching and beautiful physical theory whose techniques have been applied to a myriad of problems in theoretical computer science, statistics, optimization and biology. As many of the physical predictions can be formulated as purely mathematical questions, often extremely hard, about large random systems in high dimensions, in recent decades a new area of research has emerged in probability theory around these problems.
Mathematically, a mean-field spin glass model is a Gaussian process (random function) on the discrete hypercube or the sphere in high dimensions. A fundamental challenge in their analysis is, roughly speaking, to understand the size and structure of their super-level sets as the dimension tends to infinity, which are often studied through smooth objects like the free energy and Gibbs measure whose origin is in statistical physics. The aim of the summer school is to introduce students to landmark results on the latter while emphasizing the techniques and ideas that were developed to obtain them, as well as exposing the students to some recent research topics.

Summer Graduate School Stochastic Quantization (SLMath)
Organizers: Massimiliano Gubinelli (University of Oxford), Martina Hofmanova (Universität Bielefeld), LEAD Hao Shen (University of Wisconsin-Madison), Lorenzo Zambotti (Sorbonne Université)This summer school will familiarize students with the basic problems of the mathematical theory of Euclidean quantum fields. The lectures will introduce some of its prominent models and analyze them via the so called “stochastic quantization” methods, involving recently developed stochastic and PDE techniques. This is an area which is highly interdisciplinary combining ideas ranging from the theory of partial differential equations, to stochastic analysis, to mathematical physics. Our goal is to bring together students who are perhaps familiar with some but not all of these subjects and teach them how to integrate these different tools to solve cutting-edge problems of Euclidean quantum field theory.

Organizers: LEAD Irene M. Gamba (University of Texas, Austin), Francois Golse (Centre de Mathématiques Laurent Schwartz, École Polytechnique), LEAD Qin Li (University of Wisconsin-Madison), Chiara Saffirio (Universität Basel)This summer school will focus on the introductory notions related to the passage of Newtonian and quantum many-body dynamics to kinetic collisional models of Boltzmann flow models arising in statistical sciences in connection to model reductions when continuum macro dynamics arises; and their numerical schemes associated to transport of kinetic processes in classical and data driven mean field dynamics incorporating recent tools from computational kinetics and data science tools. There will be two sets of lectures: “From Newton to Boltzmann to Fluid dynamics”, and “Kinetic collisional theory in mean field regimes: analysis, discrete approximations, and applications”. Each lecture series will be accompanied by a collaboration session, led by the lecturer and teaching assistants. The purpose of the collaboration sessions is to encourage and strengthen higher-level thinking of the materials taught in the lectures and to direct further reading for interested students. Interactive learning activities will be conducted. For example, students will be given problem sets associated with the lectures and will work in small groups to discuss concepts and/or find solutions to assigned problems. The students will also be encouraged to give oral or poster presentations on their solutions or other materials relevant to the course.

Workshop Critical Issues in Mathematics Education 2024: Bringing Innovation to Scale: Teaching-Focused Faculty as Change Agents
Organizers: Debra Carney (Colorado School of Mines), Dave Kung (St. Mary's College of Maryland), P. Gavin LaRose (University of Michigan), Mary Pilgrim (San Diego State University), Chris Rasmussen (San Diego State University), Natasha Speer (University of Maine), Cristina Villalobos (University of Texas Rio Grande Valley)The undergraduate mathematics education system remains a huge barrier to college completion and to equity in higher education. The problem in entry level mathematics courses is not a lack of innovation. Numerous projects and institutions have created, piloted, and occasionally replicated effective reform efforts that overcame particular challenges, like the need to improve pedagogical practices or attend to gender equity. The biggest barrier to systemic reform – implementing many of these research-backed innovations at scale – is a structural one, particularly at large research-focused institutions. This workshop will bring together a group of stakeholders to explore a new avenue for change, the rise of teaching-focused faculty at research-intensive institutions who increasingly influence introductory coursework. By creating a network that connects these faculty across institutions, change at scale across 50, 100, or even more institutions becomes possible – on issues ranging from pedagogy to equity to curricular innovation. Creating such structures would also allow for bringing future innovations to scale much more quickly than is currently possible.
