Singularities in Plovdiv

International Conference

Start date: 08.06.2025
End date: 13.06.2025
Event location:  DoubleTree by Hilton Plovdiv Center Hotel, in Plovdiv, Bulgaria

The conference is organized by the International Centre for Mathematical Sciences (ICMS–Sofia) at the Institute of Mathematics and Informatics, Bulgarian Academy of Sciences, with the financial support of the Simons Foundation, The Ministry of Education of Science, The Swiss National Science Foundation and Institut de Mathématiques de Jussieu-Paris Rive Gauche.

The goal of the conference is to bring together world-renowned and early-career researchers working in the field of algebraic geometry, low-dimensional topology, complex geometry and commutative algebra and foster discussions around singularities in topology, metric geometry, algebraic geometry, dynamical systems and mirror symmetry. The meeting also seeks to provide an opportunity for young scholars from Eastern Europe to engage with cutting edge research in the area.
