The tenth edition of the Workshop on New Trends in Quaternions and Octonions - NTQO 2026 aims to present and discuss recent developments in the fields of quaternions and octonions, bringing together scientists from pure and applied mathematics, physics, scientific computing, engineering, and other related disciplines. The workshop will take place at Iscte-Instituto Universitário de Lisboa on October 23-24 and will feature invited lectures and short communications. It will be held in a hybrid format to accommodate participants who may be unable to attend NTQO 2026 in person. The event is jointly organized by the Center for Mathematical Analysis, Geometry and Dynamical Systems (CAMGSD-IST), Center for Research and Development in Mathematics of the University of Aveiro (CIDMA-UA), the Center of Mathematics of the University of Minho (CMAT-UMinho), and the Center of Mathematics and Applications of the University of Beira Interior (CMA-UBI).

The aim of this conference is to bring together experts in quantum, classical and stochastic dynamics to exchange ideas about common methods and results in this broad field of mathematical physics. It will also be an occasion to celebrate the 80th birthday of Herbert Spohn. The conference will take place at the TUM Institute for Advanced Studies (IAS) on the TUM Research Campus in Garching (near Munich). The conference is organised and supported by the CRC TRR352 Mathematics of Many-Body Quantum Systems and Their Collective Phenomena, a DFG funded Collaborative Research Center. Registration is free and now open online on our website.

Evolutionary PDEs play a crucial role in the description of countless physical processes. The numerical treatment of these time-dependent problems is challenged by plenty of difficulties such as, the propagation of singularities, the preservation of structural properties, oscillatory and multi-scale behaviour as well as the high-dimensionality of the variables involved. This seminar focuses on dynamical parametric approaches to approximate the solution of certain classes of PDEs at time t. The seminar will consist of a series of roughly ten lectures and accompanying group work. We plan to address the following topics: (1) time-dependent variational principle, (2) approximation properties of decoder functions, (3) time integration, (4) practical aspects, e.g., optimization, sampling, and automatic differentiation.

Dynamo theory studies the spontaneous growth of magnetic fields in electrically conducting fluids and is a fundamental branch of magnetohydrodynamics, with important applications in planetary physics and astrophysics. Magnetic relaxation is in a sense the counterpart of dynamo action: a magnetic field seeks a minimum energy state compatible with its topology – a driving mechanism in the dynamics of the solar corona and in fusion plasmas. Both theories provide insight into fundamental questions of classical hydrodynamics. For instance, magnetic evolution is closely analogous to vorticity evolution under ideal (Euler) dynamics and magnetic relaxation is a way to generate steady Euler flows with prescribed topology. There is a large body of well-established theory in these questions but significant mathematical challenges remain. The low-viscosity/low-resistivity regime relevant to most MHD flows is characterized by the emergence of small scales, with an interplay between stretching of magnetic streamlines and magnetic diffusion. The description of these small scales and their averaged effect on MHD instabilities or relaxation phenomena is a major issue. The seminar will focus on recent mathematical developments in this area through lectures, discussions and some brief presentations. Deadline for applications: 6 September 2026

Originally the conference on Mathematics of Operational Research, and recently renamed to the Conference on Management Mathematics, 2027 marks the 6th edition of this event and will aim to draw together the considerable community of researchers and practitioners who use and/or develop innovative mathematics that is relevant to Management Science, Operational Research, Business Analytics and related disciplines. The conference will be held at The Studio in Manchester city centre, a terrific venue only moments away from Manchester Piccadilly (the central train station in Manchester) and with easy access from Manchester airport. We welcome contributions covering theory, applications, algorithms and/or software. The conference will host plenaries from leading international experts, sessions of themed talks, as well as poster sessions, and provide plenty of opportunities for networking.
