Mini Courses

IWM mini courses are a sequence of 3 or 4 lectures on an advanced topic, intended to be accessible to a general mathematical audience. The mini courses were introduced as part of the Annual Conferences, but have now become stand-alone events. Four mini courses are planned for the 2024-25 year, to be conducted online during weekends.

Upcoming Mini-Courses

"Perturbation theory of eigenvalues of matrices", Tanvi Jain
