The aim of the School is to provide intensive mini-courses in several areas of current mathematical interest, as well as to present methods for concretely applying the theoretical tools. This would be the seventh event in a series of Schools and Workshops organized both in Japan (Hokkaido) and in Italy (Pisa, Turin), starting in 2015. Here you can find the 2023 and the 2024 editions. The very first editions of the school have been hosted in Pisa, at Centro di Ricerca Matematica Ennio De Giorgi (see the 2016, 2018 and 2021 editions), where we plan on having the seventh edition.

At its seventh edition, the summer school is now well established and recognized for giving substantial visibility and support to young students and researchers; the organisers are committed to have contributed talks and/or a poster session. This way, the school aims to strengthen the ties between Italian and Japanese universities and their departments, giving continuity to a success ful format.

The school is intended mainly for master students (laurea magistrale) and Ph.D. students.

Learning goals and objectives: The aim of the lectures is to provide a practical approach to subjects such as algebra, analysis, geometry and probability. This also leads to a deeper understanding of the topics. To this end, we shall focus on various fields and stress their connections. Students who follow the lectures will be able to understand the practical aspects of the abstract the they learned in their undergraduate courses.

Structure of the summer school: We plan on having 8 courses. The courses shall be divided in 4 subjects, with 2 lecturers for subject. One of the lecturer per subject shall be affiliated to an Italian university and one to a Japanese university, so to engage both equally. In total, we plan on having 8 speakers.

Plan of proposed subjects:

• (Functional) analysis and PDE

• Algebra and geometry 

• Cryptography and applications

• Applications to biology/medicine/epidemiology

• Numerical analysis
