The Einstein Institute International Undergraduate Workshop

(with support from École Polytechnique and Freie Universität Berlin)

                             





Description

 

The Einstein Institute of Mathematics will hold a ten-day workshop for outstanding undergraduates in 2020, from Monday August 3 to Thursday August 13.

In light of the world-wide Corona crisis, the workshop is cancelled.

The goal of the workshop is to introduce outstanding talented students to advanced topics in mathematics and research level thinking. The workshop will be centered around a full course-

Numbers, Graphs and Codes, given by Alex Lubotzky

 

In addition, four minicourses, will be offered during the workshop about different topics:

Introduction to o-minimality, by Itay Kaplan

Knot theory, Quantum Invariants of 3-manifolds, and Infinity-Algebra structures on finite complexes, by Ruth Lawrence-Naimark

Introduction to Mathematical Elasticity, by Cy Maor

An Introduction to Euler Systems via examples, by Ari Shnidman



The courses are intensive, and reach graduate level material. They do not require specific graduate level background in mathematics, but they do require mathematical sophistication, and problem solving skills.
