Georgia Southern University will host a conference on Homological Methods in Algebraic Structures, in May 2016 (May 13-14). The aim is to cover recent developments and applications of the homological methods in areas such as Commutative and Non commutative Algebra, Model Category Theory, Algebraic Geometry.

KUMUNUjr provides an opportunity for young mathematicians studying commutative algebra in the Midwest to share their research and expertise with one another. Our discipline is an active one, with connections to algebraic geometry, cluster algebras, combinatorics, homological algebra, representation theory, statistics, and other areas. Furthermore, midwestern commutative algebra research continues to reflect the activity and diversity of the commutative algebra research community. We anticipate funding through the NSF to partially cover travel and lodging expenses. Feel free to contact any of the organizers with questions.

The 2016 edition of the Swiss doctoral program’s Borel seminar will focus on recent major progresses arising from the interaction of matroid theory with topology, (tropical) geometry and representation theory. It will take place
January 24-29, 2016, in Les Diablerets, Switzerland.
Please find below a list of minicourses, and refer to the webpage
http://www.combinatorialmethods.ch/sm-art/
for further (and updated) information.
The seminar’s venue has a limited capacity, thus we ask for applications from interested participants to be sent to the e-mail address borel2016@unifr.ch before October 2nd, 2015 and according to the guidelines posted on the seminar’s webpage.
Please do not hesitate to contact us for any queries about the seminar, and feel free to forward this announcement to anyone you think could be interested.
We look forward to a vibrant and interesting week in Les Diablerets.
