| 09:00 - 17:00 8th IPM Workshop on Particle Physics Phenomenology (IWPPP8) School PARTICLES AND ACCELERATORS Abstract: This workshop will delve into cutting-edge developments in particle physics aimed at advancing our understanding beyond the Standard Model (SM). While the SM has provided a robust framework for describing elementary particles and their interactions, evidenced by its success up to TeV-scale energies at the LHC and the 2012 discovery of the Higgs boson by the ATLAS and CMS collaborations, it leaves several profound questions unanswered. The workshop will explore recent theoretical advancements and experimental results from the LHC with a focus on Higgs boson, top quark, and bottom quark physics, alongside pivotal topics ... 14:00 - 15:00 Combinatorics and Computing Weekly Seminar The MST-Ratio: A New Measure of Mixedness for Colorful Point Sets School MATHEMATICS Recently, motivated by applications in spatial biology, we explored the interactions between color classes in a colored point set from a topological perspective. We introduced MST-ratio as a measure for quantifying the mingling of points with different colors. Investigating this measure raises intriguing questions in discrete geometry, which is the primary focus of this talk. In this talk, I will introduce the concept of the MST-ratio, present the best-known bounds and key complexity results for computing its maximum, and share new findings on its behavior in both random and arbitrary point sets. Finally, I will highlight several open ... 16:00 - 17:00 Mathematics Colloquium Affine Lie superalgebras and their representations School MATHEMATICS This talk is based on a project started since 2016 on representations theory of affine Lie superalgebras. The study of representations over affine Lie (super)algebras has a long history; the first attempt in this regard dates back to 1974 when a certain class of modules over affine Lie algebras were studied and classified by the eminent mathematician, Victor Kac. In this talk, we will discuss different classes of modules over an affine Lie (super)algebra and state the difficulties appearing to obtain a classification and that how we can overcome these difficulties.
