UNSW Number Theory Days

University of New South Wales, Sydney, Australia, 13-15 August, 2025

This is a 3 day workshop with several 1-hour talks by invited speakers and also with a series of short contributed talks. This event is also associated with a NEXUS lecture by Lior Bary-Soroker (Univ. Tel Aviv).

General Outline:

The meeting will start on Wednesday, 13 August, at 9:30 am and end on Friday, 15 August, at 4:30 pm.
There is no registration, everyone is welcome.
All talks, except for the NEXUS talk, will take place in the room H13, Lawrence East, 4082, which is better known under its previous name Red Centre, RC-4082.
We will hold a reception on Wednesday, 13 August, 5:00-7:00 pm (after the NEXUS talk by Prof. Lior Bary-Soroker). Location: TBA.
This workshop will take place shortly before the Number Theory Down Under (NTDU) 2025 meeting in Christchurch, NZ, 25-29 August, 2025, thus giving an opportunity to participants from other regions to visit both countries.
