This workshop will be offered virtually. The in-person meeting has been cancelled due to the COVID-19 outbreak. A schedule for virtual talks will be posted soon. Accepted participants will be notified how to access the virtual presentations. All other interested parties can view the talks via live-stream.
Organizing Committee
Abstract

In the last decade, there have been several important breakthroughs in Number Theory, where progress on long-standing open problems has been achieved by utilizing ideas originated in the theory of dynamical systems on homogeneous spaces, and their application to lattice point counting and distribution.

The aim of this workshop is to expose young researchers to these fields and provide them with the necessary background from dynamics, number theory, and geometry to allow them to appreciate some of the recent advancements, and prepare them to make new original contributions.

The workshop will include four mini-courses on the topics

1) Dynamics and lattice point counting 2) Thermodynamic formalism 3) Diophantine approximation 4) Fine-scale statistics in number theory and dynamics

In addition, there will be a number of research and expository talks. The talks will emphasize the role that computation and experiment have thus far played in stating key conjectures and establishing key results.

The mini-courses will be aimed primarily at non-experts and will benefit graduate students and early career researchers in related areas, who are particularly encouraged to apply to participate in the workshop.

This workshop is partially supported by NSF CAREER award DMS-1651563

Please register through Cube by June 14 if you'd like to participate in this virtual event. Graduate students need not submit letters of recommendation with their applications.
