Claire Amiot (Université de Strasbourg), Sergey Fomin (University of Michigan), Bernard Leclerc (Université de Caen), and Andrei Zelevinsky* (Northeastern University)
Cluster algebras provide a unifying algebraic/combinatorial framework for a wide variety of phenomena in settings as diverse as quiver representations, Teichmuller theory, Poisson geometry, Lie theory, discrete integrable systems, and polyhedral combinatorics.
The workshop aims at presenting a broad view of the state-of-the-art understanding of the role of cluster algebras in all these areas, and their interactions with each other.
Speakers: Philippe Di Francesco (CEA-Saclay, France) Anna Felikson (Jacobs University Bremen, Germany) Christof Geiss (UNAM, Mexico) Michael Gekhtman (University of Notre Dame) David Hernandez (University Paris 7) Osamu Iyama (Nagoya University, Japan) Bernhard Keller (Université Paris Diderot - Paris 7, France) Richard Kenyon (Brown University) Robert Marsh (University of Leeds, United Kingdom) Tomoki Nakanishi (Nagoya University, Japan) Pierre-Guy Plamondon (Université Paris-Sud, France) Pavlo Pylyavskyy (University of Minnesota) Idun Reiten (Norwegian University of Science and Technology, Norway) Michael Shapiro (Michigan State University) Hugh Thomas (University of New Brunswick, Canada) Lauren Williams (University of California, Berkeley)
