Flavors of Representation Theory
About the School
Flavors of Representation Theory (FoRT) is a two-week CIMPA School for master’s students, doctoral students, and early-career researchers. The school builds on preparatory workshops such as IWLPA 2025 and the AESIM School on Flavors of Representation Theory, contributing to the development of a sustained representation theory community in India and neighbouring regions.
The programme consists of seven lecture series covering active research directions including cluster theory, infinite-dimensional Lie theory, homological methods, combinatorial structures, knot-theoretic interactions, functor categories, and aspects of group representations.
Alongside lectures, the school emphasises active learning through tutorials, collaborative sessions, Young Researchers’ presentations, mentoring meetings, and guided discussions, fostering mathematical exchange between participants and lecturers.
Registration
The school is intended for Master's students, PhD students, postdoctoral researchers, and early-career faculty interested in representation theory and related areas. For more information about the school, visit the CIMPA school page.
