Welcome to the Institute for Mathematical Research (FIM)

The Institute for Mathematical Research welcomes mathematicians from all over the world and invites them to do research, to teach and - most importantly - to exchange their knowledge in a straightforward, inspiring and lively environment. The Institute's primary objective is to offer a platform on which contacts of lasting values between faculty members of the Department of Mathematics of ETH, graduate students, members of the Swiss mathematical community at large and leading international researchers can be established.

Current and upcoming events

Conference: Representation Theory & Quantization

January 25 to 29, 2010

The conference will cover a wide spectrum of problems on the borderlines between representation theory and mathematical physics, with a special emphasis on

• integrable systems
• noncommutative geometry
• deformation quantization
• Poisson geometry
• homological algebra

The main goal of this conference is to bring together Russian and Swiss research groups working on representation theory and mathematical physics. Thus we expect most participants to be affiliated with Swiss and Russian universities, but welcome participants from other countries as well.

Organizing committee: Giovanni Felder (ETH Zurich), Anton Khoroshkin (ETH Zurich), Boris Feigin (LITP Chernogolovka),
