This is the 2nd Marburger Arbeitsgemeinschaft Mathematik, each of which is devoted to an important unsolved question in pure mathematics, with the aim of giving the participants a complete picture of its state of the art. The topic of this Arbeitsgemeinschaft is the toral rank conjecture, which was formulated by Steven Halperin in 1985 and is one of the most prominent open problems in transformation groups.

Our goal is to bring together experts on finiteness properties of groups and spaces with young reasearchers in related areas. We expect that this will lead to new connections and interactions and introduce new people to the field. To achieve this, our workshop will offer an attractive mix of minicourses and research talks.

Continuing a growing tradition, we are happy to announce the IX. Bavarian Geometry and Topology Meeting!

Start: Thursday, 16/12/2021 11:00 am
End: Thursday, 16/12/2021 02:00 pm

The workshop is the first of a series of meetings for researchers in the field of Higgs bundles. It is intended to integrate young scientists and to give them the opportunity to present their work and to establish new contacts. Applications for financial support for young participants are open until November 22nd.

We are happy to invite you to the Kickoff meeting of the second funding period of SPP 2026. The principal goal of this meeting is to bring together all SPP members (principal investigators, employees in SPP-projects and associated members) involved in projects funded in the second period.
