Two mathematical conferences, Lobachevsky Readings and Complex Analysis and Related Topics, opened at Kazan Federal University

They take up 30 June to 4 July.

In his greeting, Acting Rector Dmitry Tayursky touched on the history of Kazan University and its achievements in mathematics. He mentioned that KFU’s Center of Mathematics of the Volga Federal District was launched in 2016. Since 2017, the University has resumed its Lobachevsky Medal and Prize, a storied award for accomplishments in geometry. One of the members of the prize’s international jury, Yau Shing-tung, is a contributor of this year’s conferences, as well as the 2021 winner Idzhad Sabitov.

The participants were then addressed by Vice-Rector for Academic Affairs, Director of the Institute of Mathematics and Mechanics Yekaterina Turilova.

Welcoming words also arrived from Tsinghua University, Moscow State University, Novosibirsk State University, and Russian Academy of Sciences.

Overall, the two events comprise over 200 participants, including more than 150 from other provinces of Russia and other countries. Some of the included panel discussions at the Complex Analysis and Related Topics are on the theory functions, theory of approximation of functions of a complex variable, boundary value problems for analytic functions and their generalizations, functions of several complex variables, vasoconformal mappings, and potential theory. The Lobachevsky Readings concentrate on geometry of Lie groups with left-invariant sub-Riemannian metrics, geometry of differential-geometric structures on manifolds, low-dimensional (3-4 dim) geometry, multidimensional geometry and calculus of pseudodifferential operators, graphs and knot theory, integrable systems and topology of integrable Hamiltonian systems, homotopy classification of transitive Lie algebroids, and applications of geometry and topology.
