Weekend Workshop on Algebraic Varieties
This series of Weekend Workshops has entered its tenth year, originally
inaugurated in 2003 by James D. Lewis (Alberta), Stefan Müller-Stach
(McMaster, now at Mainz, Germany) and Noriko Yui (Queen's). This
is now a biannual event at Fields with a meeting in the Fall, followed
by a meeting in the Spring.
The subjects covered in the workshops range widely from arithmetic/algebraic
geometry, Galois representations, complex geometry, symplectic geometry,
to mathematical aspects of string theory. Participants of the workshops
consist of those well established iconic leaders working on the
leading edge of the subject, a very promising next generation of
younger researchers (including graduate students and postdoctoral
fellows), and leading experts in closely related areas where fruitful
interactions are deemed likely.
The workshops are generally self-supporting, and have an informal character
associated to them.
