Webs in Algebra, Geometry, Topology and Combinatorics
Topical Workshop
Webs are diagrammatic tools for representing complex calculations graphically. These diagrams first arose from the representation theory of classical groups, and they have since become important in disparate areas of mathematics. The goal of this workshop is thus to bring together experts from these communities and cross-fertilize these diverse subjects by spreading knowledge of recent developments and perspectives on our shared interest in webs. This workshop will also provide an opportunity for distinct research groups to share current code functionality as well as future needs and desires, with an aim towards building collaborative and open-source computing capabilities.
