Conference

The CTNT 2024 Conference (June 14-16, 2024) will feature research talks on arithmetic geometry, number theory, and related topics. The goal is to bring together experts, postdocs, and students from arithmetic geometry and number theory. We hope this will stimulate mathematical discussion among the conference participants and summer school students. The students attending the summer school preceding the conference will be invited to attend the conference. The talks will give them a sense of contemporary research themes in number theory.

List of confirmed speakers (more added as we get confirmations):

  • Bryden Cais (University of Arizona)
  • Harris Daniels (Amherst College)
  • Sachi Hashimoto (Brown University)
  • Kyu-Hwan Lee (University of Connecticut)
  • Jacob Mayle (Wake Forest University)
  • Jennifer Park (The Ohio State University)
  • Padmavathi Srinivasan (Boston University)
  • Isabel Vogt (Brown University)
  • Robin Zhang (MIT)
  • David Zureick-Brown (Amherst College)

Talk titles and abstracts!

Warning: we have received reports from previous conference speakers of a scam requesting their credit card information for travel arrangements (from a service called “eHotel”).  Participants should consider all such requests fraudulent unless coming directly from one of the organizers.

BPB
The Biology Physics Building (BPB) where the conference talks will take place.

All talks will be at the Biology Physics Building (BPB 130 and BPB 131), and registration and the coffee breaks will be outside of BPB 130. A campus map pointing to BPB can be found here (Google labels the building as the “School of Pharmacy”).
