he aims of this program will be to achieve the following goals:
- Promote communication with related disciplines, including the symplectic geometry program in 2009-2010.
- Lead to new breakthroughs in the subject and find new applications to low dimensional topology (knot theory, three-manifold topology, and smooth four manifold topology).
- Educate a new generation of graduate students and PhD students in this exciting and rapidly-changing subject.
The program will focus on algebraic link homology and Heegaard Floer homology. |

| Random Matrix Theory, Interacting Particle Systems and Integrable Systems |
| August 16, 2010 to December 17, 2010 |
| Organized By: J. Baik (U. of Michigan), A. Borodin (Caltech), P. Deift (Courant Institute), A. Guionnet (ENS, Lyon), C. Tracy (UC Davis), P. van Moerbeke (U. Louvin & Brandeis U.) |
| The goal of this program is to showcase the many remarkable developments that have taken place in the past decade in Random Matrix Theory (RMT) and to spur on further developments on RMT and the related areas Interacting Particle Systems (IPS) and Integrable Systems (IS): IPS provides an arena in which RMT behavior is frequently observed, and IS provides tools which are often useful in analyzing RMT and IPS/RMT behavior. |

| Inverse Problems and Applications |
| August 16, 2010 to December 17, 2010 |
| Organized By: Liliana Borcea (Rice), Maarten de Hoop (Purdue), Carlos Kenig (U. Chicago), Peter Kuchment (Texas A&M), Lassi Päivärinta (U. Helsinki), G. Uhlmann (Chair, U. Washington), Maciej Zworski (U.C. Berkeley). |
| Inverse Problems are problems where causes for a desired or an observed
effect are to be determined. They lie at the heart of scientific inquiry
and technological development. Applications include a number of medical as
well as other imaging techniques, location of oil and mineral deposits in
the earth's substructure, creation of astrophysical images from telescope
data, finding cracks and interfaces within materials, shape optimization,
model identification in growth processes and, more recently, modelling in
the life sciences. During the last 10 yeas or so there has been
significant developments both in the mathematical theory and applications
of inverse problems. The purpose of the program would be to bring together
people working on different aspects of the field, to appraise the current
status of development and to encourage interaction between mathematicians
and scientists and engineers working directly with the applications. |

| Free Boundary Problems, Theory and Applications |
| January 10, 2011 to May 20, 2011 |
| Organized By: Luis Caffarelli, Henri Berestycki, Laurence C. Evans, Mikhail Feldman, John Ockendon, Arshak Petrosyan, Henrik Shahgholian, Tatiana Toro, Nina Uraltseva |
| This program aims at the study of various topics within the area of Free Boundaries Problems, from the viewpoints of theory and applications.
Many problems in physics, industry, finance, biology, and other areas can be
described by partial differential equations that exhibit apriori unknown sets, such
as interfaces, moving boundaries, shocks, etc. The study of such sets, also known
as free boundaries, often occupies a central position in such problems. The aim of
this program is to gather experts in the field with knowledge of various applied and
theoretical aspects of free boundary problems. |
