This two-week program aims to explore the intersection of gauge theory and string geometry, two of the most profound and rapidly developing areas of modern mathematics and theoretical physics. The first week will feature a series of five mini-courses taught by internationally acclaimed leaders in the field, while the second week will be an international […]
The Statistical Society of Australia (SSA) is proud to present the inaugural Henstridge-Praeger Public Lecture to be delivered by Dennis Trewin AO FASSA. The lecture will be open to the public and livestreamed via Zoom – registration required for zoom link to be provided. Title: Trust in Statistics is crucial for the wellbeing of societies – but it must be […]
The Australian Mathematical Society is pleased to invite attendees to the Education Session of its annual conference, which will feature a panel discussion on “Teaching and Learning Maths in the Age of GenAI.” The session will explore the big-picture questions facing mathematics education in the age of GenAI: Which parts of mathematics should we continue to teach? […]
The annual AMSI Summer School is the biggest national event in Australia for honours and postgraduate students in the mathematical sciences. In January 2026 this four-week school will be hosted by Monash University (Clayton Campus) providing participants from across Australia and overseas with the opportunity to develop their mathematical skills, meet like-minded people, and network […]
Spend an evening with Prof. Burkard Polster, a mathematician at Monash University, as he delivers his public lecture The Other Golden Ratio as part of the 2026 AMSI Summer School. This presentation is tailored for a general audience and suitable for individuals from Year 10 onward. Whether you’re a teacher, researcher, student or simply curious about […]
Who: Postgraduate students and early career academics When: Weekend prior to ANZIAM, February 7th-8th 2026 Where: Mathematical Sciences Institute, ANU We would love for you to join us for our Early Career Researcher Workshop over the weekend before the ANZIAM 2026 conference. The workshop is free and includes a free dinner Saturday and lunch Sunday for attendees, as well as afternoon tea and morning tea. We […]
Character varieties are geometric spaces parametrising representations of a surface group into a Lie group. Higgs bundles on the other hand were introduced by Hitchin in the 1980s with motivations from Physics, and arise in the study of holomorphic vector bundles over Riemann surfaces. These two intimately related concepts are linked by the famous non-abelian […]
The past few years have witnessed important progress in our understanding of the geometry of algebraic varieties. This workshop will aim at gathering experts at an international scale on very active areas of research: birational geometry in positive and mixed characteristic and moduli theory of Fano varieties through K-stability. The program’s main goal is to […]
Bayes on the Beach is a biennial conference held in Australia, organised by the Bayesian Research & Applications Group (BRAG) in collaboration with the University of Wollongong and QUT Centre for Data Science (CDS); the Australasian chapter of the International Society for Bayesian Analysis (ISBA); the Statistical Society of Australia, (SSA) Bayesian Statistics Section; and Queensland University of […]
The event will bring together leading dynamicists and number theorists from both Australia and overseas to explore recent advances at the intersection of their fields. The conference will highlight cutting-edge developments in Diophantine approximation, homogeneous dynamics, and algebraic dynamical systems—areas that have seen rapid progress through deep conceptual interplay. It will also showcase the impact […]
