Geometry, Groups and Dynamics (GGD) - 2017
The program focuses on geometry, dynamical systems and group actions. Topics are chosen to cover the modern aspects of these areas in which research has been very active in recent times. The program will have two parts, a preschool in the first week and an advanced school during the remaining two weeks. The pre-school will be devoted to covering the necessary background material for the advanced school during the remaining two weeks. The courses for the first week of pre-school include:Discrete subgroups of Lie groups, by Pralay Chatterjee (IMSc, Chennai )Introduction to hyperbolic geometry, by Subhojoy Gupta (IISc, Bangalore)Introduction to Geometric Group Theory, by Pranab Sardar (IISER, Mohali)Crash course on Riemannian geometry, by Harish Seshadri (IISc, Bangalore)Teichmüller Theory, old and new, by Athanase Papadopoulos (Univ. Strasbourg, France)More details of the courses will be given soon on this webpage.The advanced school will consist of courses aimed at graduate students a...

Collective Dynamics of-, on- and around Filaments in Living Cells: Motors, MAPs, TIPs and Tracks
Our knowledge of cytoskeletal filaments, nucleic acid filaments (DNA and RNA) as well as their associated proteins is constantly expanding due to application of a range of recent biophysical techniques which has helped scientists to probe biophysical phenomena at molecular, cellular and tissue levels. Cytoskeletal filaments, particularly microtubules (MT) and filamentous actin (F-actin), not only provide mechanical strength to an eukaryotic cell but also form a fibrous network that serves at the network of tracks for transporation system of the cell. The dynamics of these filaments and the mechanisms of force generation by polymerization/depolymerization have been investigated experimentally as well as theoretically at multiple scales. Nucleic acid strands (DNA/RNA) are more flexible filaments. The hierarchical organization and dynamics of both cytoskeletal and nucleic acid filaments depend crucially on the proteins bound to these filaments.Cytoskeletal motor proteins utilize the respe...

Hands-On Maple Workshop
Generally speaking, physicists still experience that computing with paper and pencil is in most cases simpler than computing with a Computer Algebra System. Although that is true in some cases, the working paradigm is changing: developments in CAS, and particularly recent ones in the Maple system, have resulted in the implementation of most of the mathematical objects and mathematics used in theoretical physics computations, and have dramatically approximated the notation used in the computer to the one used with paper and pencil, diminishing the learning gap and computer-syntax distraction to a strict minimum. In this talk, the Physics project at Maplesoft will be presented and the resulting Physics package will be illustrated through simple problems in classical field theory, quantum mechanics and general relativity, and through tackling the computations of some recent Physical Review papers in those areas. In addition to the 10:00 am lecture (taking place in Alice), there will be an afternoon hands-on workshop taking place from 2:00 - 5:00 pm in the Time Room.
We recommend that participants for the hands-on workshop bring their own laptop with a copy of Maple installed. Please contact Erik Schnetter <eschnetter@perimeterinstitute.ca> ahead of time if you cannot do this, and we will try to make other arrangements.
Registration for this event is now closed.

Cosmic fireworks: The dawn of multimessenger astronomy
The recent detection of gravitational waves from a merging binary neutron star system, along with follow-up observations in the full frequency band of the electromagnetic spectrum mark the dawn of multimessenger astronomy. In celebration of this wonderful milestone in astronomy, ICTS is organizing a half-day scientific event. The event will feature several talks summarizing the gravitational and electromagnetic observations, accessible to general scientists and scientifically inclined public. Program Chair: Bala R Iyer Time Speaker Topic 10:00 - 10:05 Rajesh Gopakumar (ICTS) Welcome remarks 10:05 - 10:15 Bala Iyer (ICTS) Opening remarks 10:15 - 10:45 Parameswaran Ajith (ICTS) Gravitational-wave observations of the binary neutron star inspiral GW170817 10:45 - 11:15 Varun Bhalerao (IIT Bombay) Multimessenger observations of GW170817 (remote talk) 11:15 - 11:30 Coffee/Tea 11:30 - 12:00 K.
