The theory of automorphic forms is a rich research area with deep connections to many different fields of mathematics and physics. This conference will bring together world class researchers with expertise on automorphic forms.
The goal is to advance the theory of automorphic forms and to shed light on several open problems.
A strong emphasis will be on real-analytic automorphic forms and their role in combinatorics, mathematical physics and representation theory. In particular, the conference will concentrate on the following important topics: Harmonic weak Maass forms, harmonic Maass-Jacobi forms, mock modular forms, umbral moonshine, Nahm’s conjecture, quantum black holes, partitions and $q$-series, and asymptotics.
