Report by Raul Felipe

Report by Mercedes Siles

Objectives :

The aim of this school is to introduce graduate students and postdoctoral researchers to contemporary developments in the theory of Associative and Nonassociative Algebras and Dialgebras.

Administrative and scientific coordinators

• Raul Felipe, CIMAT, Guanajuato, Mexique. Chair of the Local Organizing Committee at CIMAT raulf@cimat.mx
• Cándido Martín González, University of Malaga, Spain candido@apncs.cie.uma.es

On the 6th of June, 2012, Jean-Louis Loday passed away in a maritime accident. The deep sense of loss has motivated the Organizing Committee to dedicate this School to honour a Man and a Mathematician who contributed with his work and enthusiasm to the development of our knowledge in Algebra and Geometry.

Jean-Louis Loday had been appointed as a Lecturer for this School from its beginning. Now we dedicate it to his memory.

Dates and location :

February 17-March 2, 2013, CIMAT, Guanajuato. Mexico

Scientific program :

All courses will be English-spoken if necessary. Otherwise, courses can be in Spanish, based on the origin of the Speaker.

Basic courses of this school will include theory of nonassociative algebras and a panoramic introduction to Lie algebras, among others which will strengthen the PhD program in Pure Mathematics offered by CIMAT, the host institution, and will reinforce young postgraduate students and mathematicians from the region’s countries on these subjects.

 Free Associative Algebras and Noncommutative Gröbner Bases : Murray R. Bremner, Department of Mathematics and Statistics, University of Saskatchewan, Canada
 An introduction to nonassociative dialgebras : Juana Sánchez Ortega, Dpto. Álgebra, Geometría y Topología, Universidad de Málaga, Málaga, Spain.
 Representations of the Symmetric Group and Polynomial Identities : Luiz A. Peresi, Department of Mathematics University of Sao Paulo, Brazil
 First steps into Jordan algebras : Mercedes Siles Molina, Dpto. Álgebra, Geometría y Topología, Universidad de Málaga, Málaga, Spain.
 Combinatorial bialgebras : Maria Ronco, Universidad de Talca, Chile
 A panoramic introduction to the Lie superalgebras : Adolfo Sánchez Valenzuela, CIMAT, Centro de Investigación en Matemáticas, A.C.

Additionally to basic courses, expository seminars will be held at research level on other algebraic topics and computational methods.

Deadline for registration :
