Conference programme 2025

This is a joint seminar of research groups from Bielefeld and Münster. It started in 2015 and usually takes place once every semester, either in Bielefeld or in Münster. The topics of interest include group theory, geometry and topology. Everyone is welcome to participate in the lectures.

The workshop is aimed at algebraic and arithmetic geometers curious about the potential application of model theory in their research, as well as at model theorists who are keen to learn how their tools may be extended to answer questions of geometric interest.

Model Theory meets GGT is a week-long conference aimed at bringing together young researchers in the areas of Model Theory and Geometric Group Theory. These two areas exhibit a rich interplay, and the mini-courses and research talks will be aimed to display topics in this intersection. Furthermore, there will be a lightning talks session in which all participants are encouraged to give a brief introduction to their own research and interests, so as to foster even more interaction between the participants.

This workshop on Stochastic Partial Differential Equations (SPDE) aims to provide an intensive series of lectures delivered by leading researchers in the field. Over the course of a week, young researchers will have the opportunity to deepen their understanding of SPDE and foster scientific exchange. The goal is to stimulate collaboration and advance knowledge among junior researchers through expert-led sessions and interactive discussions.

This is a series of meetings, with the aim of bringing together the geometric group theorists, topologists, and geometers in the North-Rhine Westphalia region of Germany.

Both, non-reciprocity and mass conservation, have far reaching generic consequences for the universal dynamical behaviour of the concerned wide range of non-equilibrium systems. Results of many particular approaches to the mathematical modelling of such systems have shown that classical concepts of nonlinear and statistical physics, such as phase transitions, need to be reconsidered and developed further.

This spring school is devoted to several topics in probability theory, like point processes, interacting particle systems, random graphs and stochastic geometry, related by the common theme "Random Discrete Structures". The schedule will consist of three mini-courses as well as the number of short talks. We stress that attendance is of course open to everyone.

This is the forth in the series of workshops that institutionalize the tradition of the BOS-Workshops on stochastic geometry. The intention of this series is that researchers from the Westphalian Polygon of Locations (Bielefeld-Osnabrück-Münster-Bochum-Dortmund) meet once per semester to discuss their ongoing SPP 2265 research projects in an informal atmosphere and jointly develop new research ideas.

Our summer school in stochastic analysis will feature lectures by leading experts in the field. The programme will cover modern aspects of stochastic analysis, pertaining to the long-time analysis of dynamical systems. Topics of interest will include, e.g., interacting particle systems and scaling limits. The school is designed for young researchers, offering an opportunity to interact with other researchers and young mathematicians in the field.

This is a joint seminar of research groups from Bielefeld and Münster. It started in 2015 and usually takes place once every semester, either in Bielefeld or in Münster. The topics of interest include group theory, geometry and topology. Everyone is welcome to participate in the lectures.

The purpose of the meeting is to study relationships between local and global invariants in Riemannian Geometry. Our intention is to bring together experts in the field as well as young mathematicians.

The interaction between probability, dynamics and group theory is an active and growing area of research with exciting recent developments. The goals of this autumn school are to expose young researchers to the diverse set of available tools in these areas, to facilitate collaborations and to stimulate new interactions.

This workshop focuses on recent advances around the (co-)homology of general linear and related groups. These basic topological invariants are, for example, related to questions in algebraic K-theory and conjectures in number theory. Their study can be approached from many different mathematical perspectives, each using their own set of techniques.
