Collaborative Research: Texas-Oklahoma Representations and Automorphic forms (TORA)

会议德克萨斯州-俄克拉何马州表示和自同构形式IV将于2013年3月23日至24日在北德克萨斯大学举行。更多的信息可以在会议网站上找到：http://www.math.unt.edu/~richter/TORA/TORA4.htmlOver上个世纪，自同构形式和表征的理论得到了极大的发展。重要的应用影响着各个研究领域，从数论、编码理论、代数几何、拓扑学到Kac-Moody代数和量子场论。自同构形式和表征理论的相互作用尤其富有成果，出现了许多令人惊讶和深刻的结果。TORA会议系列将强调自同态形式和表示之间的相互作用，无论是在古典语言还是阿德莱德语言中，以及分析数论和调和分析等相关主题。TORA数学会议系列由北德克萨斯大学、俄克拉何马州立大学和俄克拉何马大学轮流主办的半年度会议组成。该奖项为三个周末会议提供支持，一个是2013年春季在北德克萨斯大学（TORA IV），一个是2013年秋季在俄克拉荷马州立大学（TORA V），另一个是2014年春季在俄克拉荷马州大学（TORA VI）。每次会议都将有两到三位来自德克萨斯州-俄克拉何马州地区以外的著名演讲嘉宾，以及其他参与者，包括学生、博士后研究人员和初级教师。地区研究生和研究人员也将发表演讲，介绍他们的工作。这些会议将促进该地区在自同构形式、表示理论和数论领域工作的学生和研究人员之间的合作和互动。

The conference Texas-Oklahoma Representations and Automorphic forms IV will take place on March 23-24, 2013, at the University of North Texas. Additional information can be found on the confernce website: http://www.math.unt.edu/~richter/TORA/TORA4.htmlOver the last century, the theories of automorphic forms and representations have grown enormously. Important applications impact various fields of research, ranging from number theory, coding theory, algebraic geometry, and topology to Kac-Moody algebras and quantum field theory. The interplay of automorphic forms and representation theory has been especially fruitful, and many surprising and deep results have emerged. The TORA conference series will emphasize the interplay between automorphic forms and representations, both in the classical and adelic languages, and related topics like analytic number theory and harmonic analysis.The TORA mathematics conference series consists of semi-annual meetings hosted by the University of North Texas, Oklahoma State University, and the University of Oklahoma on a rotating basis. This award provides support for three weekend conferences, one at the University of North Texas in Spring 2013 (TORA IV), one at Oklahoma State University in Fall 2013 (TORA V), and another at the University of Oklahoma in Spring 2014 (TORA VI). Each conference will feature two or three prominent guest speakers from outside the Texas-Oklahoma region, in addition to other participants including students, post-doctoral researchers, and junior faculty. Regional graduate students and researchers will also give talks describing their work. These conferences will facilitate collaborations and interactions among the students and researchers in the region who work in the areas of Automorphic Forms, Representation Theory, and Number Theory.
