Workshop Announcement: ---------------------------------------------------------------- Painleve equations and their applications ---------------------------------------------------------------- February 6 to February 10, 2017 American Institute of Mathematics Research Conference Center San Jose, California http://aimath.org/workshops/upcoming/painleveapp ------------ Description: ------------ This workshop, sponsored by AIM and the NSF, will bring together experts in random matrix theory and number theory to study the role of Painleve equations in number theory, random matrix theory, and the many interesting connections between the two theories. The workshop is organized by Estelle Basor, Yang Chen, and Michael Rubinstein. For more details please see the workshop announcement page: http://aimath.org/workshops/upcoming/painleveapp Space and funding is available for a few more participants. If you would like to participate, please apply by filling out the on-line form (available at the link above) no later than September 6, 2016. Applications are open to all, and we especially encourage women, underrepresented minorities, junior mathematicians, and researchers from primarily undergraduate institutions to apply. -------------------------------- AIM Research Conference Center: -------------------------------- The American Institute of Mathematics (AIM) hosts focused workshops in all areas of the mathematical sciences. AIM focused workshops are distinguished by their emphasis on a specific mathematical goal, such as making progress on a significant unsolved problem, understanding the proof of an important new result, or investigating the convergence between two distinct areas of mathematics.
