Women in Algebra and Symbolic Computation III


From December 9 – 11, 2024 the third edition of the workshop “Women in Algebra and Symbolic Computation” will take place at the Kurparkhotel in Bad Dürkheim. The main organizers are Prof. Dr. Gunter Malle, Prof. Dr. Hannah Markwig, Prof. Dr. Gabriela Weitze-Schmithüsen and Dr. Michael Kunte.

Program

The conference is dedicated to the promotion of female researchers in the research area of our TRR. Hence the algebraic disciplines group and representation theory, algebraic geometry, commutative and non-commutative algebra, tropical and polyhedral geometry, number theory as well as random matrix theory and free probability are included. These mathematical fields are connected through symbolic methods and computations.

We are aiming at providing a stimulating platform for female researchers – networking is one of the main objectives of the workshop. This includes established female researches as well as Postdocs and graduate students. Male participants are very welcome and encouraged to attend.

Location / Directions

The Kurpark-Hotel in Bad Dürkheim can be reached by train (train station “Bad Dürkheim“) or car from all main locations.

Since one may have booked a train connection from Mannheim central station to Bad Dürkheim via RNV 4 or RNV 9, we would like to point out that this is actually a tram leaving in front of the train station.
See the following map with directions from Bad Dürkheim train station to the Kurpark Hotel which is a 5 minute walk.
