Hello all, We are happy to announce a Winter School on Galois Theory to be held in Luxembourg in February 2012. The goal of the winter school is to present state-of-the-art methods in Galois theory to graduate students and postdocs. We will focus on Galois representations, in particular on Serre's modularity conjecture, and on several of the patching techniques and their various applications. Prior to the school, there will be three preparatory days on background material. Preparatory days, 15 - 17 February 2012 * Profinite Groups - Luis Ribes * Field Theory - Wulf-Dieter Geyer * Modular Forms - Johan Bosman Winter School, 20 - 24 February 2012 * Galois Representations - Gebhard Böckle * Serre's Modularity Conjecture - Michael Schein * Patching in Galois Theory - Moshe Jarden * Patching in Algebra - David Harbater For more information and registration, please see the webpage: http://galois.pratum.net Best regards, Sara Arias-de-Reyna Lior Bary-Soroker Gabor Wiese
