Automorphic forms are present in almost every area of modern number theory. In recent decades there has been a starburst of activity and progress in this broad area, leading to many new directions, applications, and connections with other areas within mathematics and mathematical physics.  The purpose of the research school is to provide graduate students and early career researchers with training on some topics that are having great impact on current research in automorphic forms, allowing them to make new connections, with areas related to their current research programs and with other researchers. The school will be comprised of three 2-day intensive mini-courses, each team-taught by a pair of experts, and supplemented by afternoon problems sessions.

Applications: Research students, post-docs and those working in industry are invited to apply. The closing date for applications is 15 March 2014. Numbers will be limited and those interested are advised to make an early application.  Applications should be made using the registration form available via the Society’s website at:

and applicants should have a letter of support sent to the organisers at: eu.us.afw.2014@gmail.com

*All applicants will be contacted within two weeks after the deadline; information about individual applications will not be available before then*

Financial support:  There is some support available for travel and local costs; requests for support should be indicated on the application form.

Fees:  Registration for a graduate student is £150, and for an early career researcher it is £250, although these fees may be lowered or waived as is appropriate. Fees are not payable until a place on the course is offered but will be due by 15 May 2014.
