The Clay Mathematics Institute
Clay Research Conference 2014
The Clay Research Conference will be held on 1 October at Oxford. The speakers will be: Ben Green (Oxford), Jonathan Pila (Oxford), Paul Seidel (MIT), Scott Sheffield (MIT). Four workshops will be held in the week of the conference:
- Advances in Probablity (Ivan Corwin and Martin Hairer)
- Analytic Number Theory (Ben Green and Roger Heath-Brown)
- Functional Transcendence (Jonathan Pia and Alex Wilkie)
- Symplectic Topology (Dominic Joyce, Alexander Ritter, and Ivan Smith)
Millennium Problems
Supported by much experimental evidence, this conjecture relates the number of points on an elliptic curve mod p to the rank of the group of rational points. Elliptic curves, defined by cubic equations in two variables, are fundamental mathematical objects that arise in many areas: Wiles' proof of the Fermat Conjecture, factorization of numbers into primes, and cryptography, to name three.
