Perspectives in Representation Theory

Representation theory has a rich and colourful history. From a classic viewpoint, representation theory is the study of abstract algebraic structures, such as groups, rings, algebras (associative or not), by the action of their elements on a more familiar structure, such as an abelian group or a vector space. From a more abstract perspective, representations can be recast as functors and the idea can be extended to the notion of representation of a category enriched over some monoidal category (like the categories of abelian groups, vector spaces or chain complexes over a field).

Mathematical Challenges in Manufacturing - Meeting between CMUP and TU-Berlin/IWF

This is an informal meeting between three visiting researchers of the Technical University of Berlin (TU-Berlin) and members of the Centro de Matemática da Universidade do Porto (CMUP). The idea behind this meeting is to explore cooperation possibilities between TU-Berlin and CMUP/LASI. The meeting is open to the whole academic community in Porto; especially to students and researchers in Mathematics. The Institute for Machine Tools and Factory Management (IWF) is part of the TU-Berlin.

Gibbs-Markov structures for hyperbolic flows and decay of correlations

Despite some groundbreaking advances on the exponential mixing rate of the SRB measure for contact Anosov flows, Anosov flows with smooth invariant foliations and codimension one Anosov flows, the general picture concerning the decay of correlations for Anosov flows is still far from complete. There are two main conjectures in this area:

1. every topologically mixing Axiom A attractor mixes exponentially fast

2. an Axiom A attractor is topologically mixing if and only if the strong stable and strong unstable subbundles are jointly nonintegrable
