The main part of the summer school will be 10 Lectures by Roger Casals. These lectures will be supplemented by the following active learning activities:

  • Math Q&A: participants will be able to ask questions about the lecture series.
  • Recitations: participants will work on problem sets with the help of an expert in the field.
  • Group Work: participants will break into groups to work on the problem sets. 
  • Bonus Lectures: Lenny Ng will discuss connections to holomorphic curves and augmentations. 
  • Wrap-up: Roger Casals will summarizing the main mathematical takeaways from the day and a brief peek at what is to come.

There will be two Research Talks on recent developments in Legendrian knot theory and microlocal sheaves.

During lunch on two of the days there will be Panel Discussions. One will be about the job process in academia and the second will be about publishing, giving talks, and other aspects of the profession.

We will also hold one session to discuss Open Problems in the field.
