Representations of Finite and Algebraic Groups

April 9, 2018 - April 13, 2018

Mathematical Sciences Research Institute, Berkeley, California.

The workshop will bring together key researchers working in various areas of Group Representation Theory to strengthen the interaction and collaboration between them and to make further progress on a number of basic problems and conjectures in the field. \mchead{Topics} Of the workshop include - Global-local conjectures in the representation theory of finite groups - Representations and cohomology of simple, algebraic and finite groups - Connections to Lie theory and categorification, and - Applications to group theory, number theory, algebraic geometry, and combinatorics.
