School of Mathematical Sciences – The University of Adelaide.
2015 Strings Journal Club Seminars
- Date: Wed, 18 Mar - Wed, 16 Sep 2015
- Location: Ingkarni Wardli Building, Room 5.58
A learning seminar on topics related to the geometric aspects of string theory. Several mathematical subjects, including topology, representation theory, and operator algebras are also discussed.
Workshop: Symmetries and Spinors - Interactions between Geometry and Physics
- Date: Wed, 13 - Sun, 17 May 2015
- Location: Level 7 Room 7.15 of the Ingkarni Wardli building at the University of Adelaide
The interplay between physics and geometry has lead to stunning advances and enriched the internal structure of each field. This is vividly exemplified in the theory of supergravity, which is a supersymmetric extension of Einstein's relativity theory to the small scales governed by the laws of quantum physics.

Workshop: Geometric Quantisation
- Date: Mon, 27 - Fri, 31 Jul 2015
- Location: Level 7 Room 7.15 of the Ingkarni Wardli building at the University of Adelaide
Geometric quantisation has been an increasingly active area since before the 1980s, with links to physics, symplectic geometry, representation theory, index theory, and differential geometry and geometric analysis in general.

2016 Differential Geometry Seminars
- Date: Fri, 8 Jan - Fri, 2 Dec 2016
- Location: North Terrace Campus: Various locations (see below)
School of Mathematical Sciences – The University of Adelaide.
Workshop: Topological Matter, Strings, K-theory and related areas
- Date: Mon, 26 - Fri, 30 Sep 2016
- Location: Engineering South S111
In the past decade, there has been huge surge of interest in topological aspects of condensed matter physics. More recently, it has started to transpire that the mathematics underlying this field has much in common with that used in and stimulated by string theory.
