The spring school "Characters of Representations and Modular Forms" will take place at the Max-Planck-Institut für Mathematik in Bonn from 23 March till 27 March 2015.
As the title suggests, this spring school aims to build a bridge between two very active and highly intertwined disciplines of mathematics, Representation Theory and Number Theory. For that purpose we like to invite young researchers from both these areas to attend this school and learn about the respective other area and the various connections between them.
The lecturers for the Spring School (in alphabetical order) are
| Maria Gorelik | Weizman Institute of Science | |
| Victor Kac | MIT | |
| Geoffrey Mason | University of California, Santa Cruz | |
| Ken Ono | Emory University | |
| Minoru Wakimoto | University of Kyushu | |
| Don Zagier | MPIM Bonn |
The program and a list of participants will soon become available.
