Following the success of the first Workshop on Climate Change and Insurance  https://fam.tuwien.ac.at/events/cci2024/ held in Vienna, we are delighted to announce that the second edition, CCI 2025, will take place in the beautiful city of Edinburgh from September 10 to 12, 2025.

The workshop continues its mission to deepen our understanding of how climate change impacts the insurance industry and to foster collaboration between actuaries and academics on both national and international levels.

Registration Fees

Early Bird (by June 30th):
PhD students & full-time academics: 270 GBP
Industry professionals: 370 GBP

Standard fee (after June 30th):
PhD students & full-time academics: 370 GBP

This is a two-week research school under the ICMS Mathematics for Humanity programme, facilitating interaction between researchers from China, India, and the UK. The programme holds numerous potential benefits for academic research, dissemination, and fostering collaboration. The vision is that this is the first in a series of schools, conferences, and workshops rotating between China, India and the UK.

The first week will consist of pedagogical overviews and tutorials of topics in string theory and mathematical physics. There will be a more intensive workshop-style atmosphere in the second week to give participants an overview of contemporary research topics. The lecturers include Vijay Balasubramanian, Pawel Caputa, Chi-Ming Chang, Atish Dabholkar, Rajesh Gopakumar, Sergei Gukov, Yu-Tin Huang, Alok Laddha, Hong Liu, Wei Song.

Payment to be made after you have been accepted as a participant only. Payment alone does not guarantee a place at this workshop.

Combinatorics has experienced tremendous growth in the last century, and especially in the last few decades. This is in part due to the systematic study of the field that was initiated by many great mathematicians in the beginning of the 20th century. Additionally, the discovery of links between combinatorics and other fields of mathematics, such as algebra, analysis, logic, probability, and number theory, as well as various branches of computer science, showcased the importance of combinatorics and led to the development of an ever-growing toolbox containing methods from various fields.

The focus of this workshop will be on extremal and probabilistic combinatorics which are particular strengths of the UK combinatorics community. The first area typically studies how large (or small) a parameter of a discrete collection of objects can be, provided it satisfies certain conditions, whereas the second seeks to describe typical properties of a discrete object drawn randomly from such a collection. Problems of both types arise naturally not only in combinatorics but also in other areas of mathematics and computer sciences.

Fluid is one of the most omnipresent substances on the planet. Mathematical analysis of the fundamental partial differential equations of fluid dynamics such as the Navier-Stokes equations was pioneered by Leray in 1934. Gaining insights into the behaviour of the solutions to such equations is crucial for our understanding of the physical phenomena that we experience in our daily lives. This interdisciplinary conference will serve as a forum for leading experts, emerging early-career researchers, and under-represented groups with complementary strength to explore recent developments, exchange insights, and address key challenges in the pursuit of better understanding of various issues.
