<div dir="ltr">Colegas, <br><br>Envio abaixo o anúncio de programas para 2024 - 2025 do antigo MSRI, em Berkeley, que agora se chama Simons Laufer Mathematical Sciences Institute (SLMath). Apesar da mudança de nome, o lugar continua centro um excelente centro de pesquisa e eventos, com equipe para ajudar todos os visitantes.<br><br>Os programas de 24-25 são em Combinatória, Probabilidade/Estatística e Geometria. Chamo especial atenção para o evento "Probability and statistics on discrete structures", no qual co-organizarei um workshop em abril de 2025. <br><br>Pesquisadoras e pesquisadores podem se candidatar a bolsas para participarem desses eventos. Há bolsas de "research member" e "research professor" para estadias de no mínimo 1 e 3 meses (respectivamente) de participantes com alguns anos de carreira. Pessoas mais jovens podem se candidatar às vagas para pósdocs e doutorandos. <br><br>Abraços,<br>Roberto<br><br><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">---------- Forwarded message ---------<br>From: <strong class="gmail_sendername" dir="auto">Chris Marshall</strong> <span dir="auto"><<a href="mailto:chris@slmath.org">chris@slmath.org</a>></span><br>Date: Wed, Aug 16, 2023 at 7:29 PM<br>Subject: Apply Now: MSRI/SLMath 2024-25 Programs (Research Professors & Members)<br>To: <br></div><br><br><div dir="ltr"><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr"><br clear="all"><div><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_signature" data-smartmail="gmail_signature"><div dir="ltr"></div></div></div><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr"><div class="gmail_quote"><div><div style="height:100%;margin:0;padding:0;width:100%;background-color:#fafafa"><center><table align="center" border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" height="100%" width="100%" id="m_-223263398921255019m_-6550851622088213734m_6806170964103026852m_-6162145091383961468bodyTable" style="border-collapse:collapse;height:100%;margin:0;padding:0;width:100%;background-color:#fafafa"><tbody><tr><td align="center" valign="top" id="m_-223263398921255019m_-6550851622088213734m_6806170964103026852m_-6162145091383961468bodyCell" style="height:100%;margin:0;padding:0;width:100%;border-top:0"><table border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%" style="border-collapse:collapse"><tbody><tr><td align="center" valign="top" id="m_-223263398921255019m_-6550851622088213734m_6806170964103026852m_-6162145091383961468templatePreheader" style="background:#ffffff none no-repeat center/cover;background-color:#ffffff;background-image:none;background-repeat:no-repeat;background-position:center;background-size:cover;border-top:0;border-bottom:1px none #222222;padding-top:9px;padding-bottom:9px"><table align="center" border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%" style="border-collapse:collapse;max-width:600px!important"><tbody><tr><td valign="top"><table border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%" style="min-width:100%;border-collapse:collapse"><tbody><tr><td valign="top" style="padding-top:9px"><table align="left" border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" style="max-width:100%;min-width:100%;border-collapse:collapse" width="100%"><tbody><tr><td valign="top" style="padding:0px 18px 9px;text-align:center;word-break:break-word;color:#000000;font-family:Helvetica;font-size:12px;line-height:150%"><a href="https://mailchi.mp/msri/msri-slmath-membership-open-2024-25-rm-rp?e=0ac148cf89" style="color:#000000;font-weight:normal;text-decoration:underline" target="_blank">View this email in your browser</a>

Recently, several major breakthroughs have been made in each of these fields using techniques and ideas from the others. This program is aimed at connecting various branches of Geometry, PDE, and Relativity and at enhancing collaborations across these disciplines and will include four main topics: Geometric Flows, Geometric problems in Mathematical Relativity, Global Riemannian Geometry, and Minimal Submanifolds. Specifically the program focuses on a central goal, which is to advance our knowledge toward Riemannian (sub)manifolds under geometric conditions, such as curvature lower bounds, by developing techniques in, for example, geometric flows and minimal submanifolds and further fostering new connections. <span style="font-family:georgia,times,times new roman,serif">(</span><a href="https://msri.us10.list-manage.com/track/click?u=d58ee2e82c69809ff037f56b2&id=20d5b9370f&e=0ac148cf89" style="font-family:georgia,times,"times new roman",serif;color:#eb5a23;font-weight:normal;text-decoration:underline" target="_blank">Learn more</a><span style="font-family:georgia,times,times new roman,serif">)</span></p>

Questions of this type arise naturally across mathematics, so this area has close connections and interactions with a broad array of other fields, including number theory, group theory, model theory, probability, statistical physics, optimization, and theoretical computer science. The area has seen huge growth in the twenty-first century and, particularly in recent years, there has been a steady stream of solutions to important longstanding problems and many powerful new methods have been introduced. Recent groundbreaking advances will be the central theme of the semester program...

Random graphs and related random discrete structures lie at the forefront of applied probability and statistics, and are core topics across a wide range of scientific disciplines where mathematical ideas are used to model and understand real-world networks. At the same time, random graphs pose challenging mathematical and algorithmic problems that have attracted attention from probabilists and combinatorialists since at least 1960, following the pioneering work of Erdos and Renyi. Around the turn of the millennium, as very large data sets became available, several applied disciplines started to realize that many real-world networks, even though they are from various origins, share fascinating features. In particular, many such networks are small worlds, meaning that graph distances in them are typically quite small, and they are scale-free, in the sense that the number of connections made by their elements is extremely heterogeneous. This program is devoted to the study of the probabilistic and statistical properties of such networks.... This program is aimed at pure and applied mathematicians interested in network problems.
