September 16-20 2024
at IHES - Marilyn and James Simons Conference Center
How to get to IHES
The work of Maxim Kontsevich, Permanent Professor at IHES since 1995, and holder of the AXA-IHES Chair for Mathematics, has been a unique combination of spectacular ideas in algebra, combinatorics, topology, algebraic geometry, and theoretical physics.
No other mathematician has played such a pivotal role in enhancing the interaction of mathematics and physics on the crossroad of 20th and 21st centuries.
In this week-long meeting we will be celebrating the 60th birthday of Maxim Kontsevich and his profound influence on mathematics.
