## Higher Structures Lisbon (deformation theory, operads, higher categories developments & applications)2017-07-24 — 2017-07-27

The aim of this meeting is to stimulate interaction between people, who are working in higher structures interpreted in the broad sense (to mean higher stacks, $L_\infty$- and $A_\infty$-algebras, Batalin–Vilkovisky algebras, higher category theory, operad theory and related areas).

## Global Portuguese Mathematicians2017-07-13 — 2017-07-14

The Conference Global Portuguese Mathematicians aims at bringing together portuguese mathematicians working in different parts of the world. Of course, everyone is welcome, in particular, those working (or planning to work) in Portugal.

## 6th IST Lectures on Algebraic Geometry and Physics2017-07-10 — 2017-07-12

The IST Lectures on Algebraic Geometry and Physics started in 1999 and target the bridging of gaps between exciting new areas of Algebraic Geometry and Physics.

## Workskop on Operator Theory, Complex Analysis, and Applications 2017 / WOTCA 20172017-07-03 — 2017-07-06

The Workskop on Operator Theory, Complex Analysis, and Applications 2017 / WOTCA 2017 will take place in Lisbon, Portugal, on 3-6 July 2017.

It aims to bring together researchers working in Operator Theory, Complex Analysis, and their applications, namely in Mathematical Physics, and to create an opportunity to highlight the current state of the art in these fields, present open problems and engage in fruitful discussions.

This meeting follows the line of five previous workshops, WOTCA 2010, WOTCA 2012, 2-Day OTCA 2013, WOTCA 2014, WOTCA 2016.

## 6th Workshop of the Seminar on Representation Theory and Related Areas2017-09-02

This seminar emerged in 2010 from informal meetings between mathematicians from the Universities of Coimbra, Lisbon and Porto. The 6th Workshop on Representation Theory and Related Areas, to be held at Universidade do Algarve, aims to pursue and develop interactions between mathematicians working in Representation Theory, Geometry, Combinatorics and other relevant fields.

## XXVI International Fall Workshop on Geometry and Physics2017-09-04 — 2017-09-07

The Fall Workshops on Geometry and Physics have been held yearly since 1992, and bring together Spanish and Portuguese geometers and physicists, along with an ever increasing number of participants from outside the Iberian peninsula. The meetings aim to provide a forum for the exchange of ideas between researchers from different backgrounds, and always include a substantial number of enthusiastic young researchers amongst the participants.

## ERC Grant awarded to Patrícia Gonçalves2016-09-13

Patrícia Gonçalves, researcher at CAMGSD and an Associate Professor at the Instituto Superior Técnico since May 2016, has been awarded an ERC Starting Grant of 1,180,000€ for 5 years. This is the first time the European Research Council has granted this award to a mathematician working in Portugal.

The funded research project aims at characterizing the universality of the macroscopic behavior of some physical systems from underlying microscopic stochastic dynamics, by deriving the macroscopic laws, namely, (stochastic) partial differential equations, which govern the space-time evolution of the thermodynamic quantities of those physical systems.
