An Invitation to the Representation Theory of Finite Groups

Date

11th April 2016

Location

Dipartimento di Matematica, Università degli Studi di Padova, Italy.

Purpose

In recent years the representation theory of finite groups has seen a lot of progress, especially with respect to the class of "counting conjectures" from modular representation theory. The purpose of this meeting is to provide an opportunity for people outside the area to gain an appreciation for the most recent advances from some of Europe's most prominent representation theorists. In particular, the talks should be accessible to people from neighbouring areas.

Speakers

There will be four talks given by:

Meinolf Geck
(Universität Stuttgart)

Radha Kessar
(City University)

Gunter Malle
(TU Kaiserslautern)

Gabriel Navarro
(Universitat de València)

Registration

There is no need to formally register for the conference. However, if you are interested in attending then we kindly ask that you send an email to the organiser

Jay Taylor (taylor [at] math [dot] unipd [dot] it).

This will allow us to obtain a better idea of how many people wish to attend and adjust our organisation accordingly.
