This is a joint program of ICTS with TIFR, Mumbai and KIAS, Seoul.The theory of surfaces has been the cradle to many powerful ideas in Algebraic Geometry. The problems in this area have been attacked in several different ways. This program seeks to bring together leading experts in this field to give a survey of each point of view and to prepare young mathematicians to take this circle of ideas to the next level by arming themselves with a clear understanding of how all the different techniques unite in principle to solve deep problems in Geometry.The program will be organized in two parts, an advanced school and a discussion meeting:Scope of Advanced SchoolThis part is intended primarily for young mathematicians: advanced PhD candidates and postdoctoral fellows at the beginning of their careers. The school will be six days long and will have three lectures each day by leading experts in the fields of Algebraic Surfaces, Topological Aspects of Surface Theory, Fundamental Groups in Alge...

This workshop on gravitational-wave astronomy is jointly organized by the ICTS and the Max Planck Institute for Gravitational Physics (Albert Einstein Institute, AEI), Hannover to mark the inauguration of the Max Planck Partner Group in Astrophysical Relativity and Gravitational-Wave Astronomy at ICTS. This workshop focusses on issues related to the search for gravitational waves from coalescing compact binaries and spinning neutron stars. A special session on Thursday, November 5 will focus on  initiating collaborations between gravitational-wave astronomers and the core science team of the Indian multi-wavelength astronomy satellite project Astrosat in problems related to the search for gravitational-waves from accreting neutron stars.
