The workshop will consist of three main activities:
- A series of research lectures: in particular young researchers participating, especially those who are PhD students, will have the opportunity to present their recent work.
- Two courses for PhD and Master students, given in partnership with ENS Paris: one by Ariane Mézard on complex analysis and number theory, one by Frédéric van Wijland on statistics in high dimension. They include two extra lectures given in pair by a student from ENS Libreville and a student from ENS Paris: Mozer Maleghi and Jules Fressonnet, Geordann Igouwe and Santiago Reyes.
- A series of events to promote mathematics, organized in partnership with the Institut Français in Gabon: two half-days for high school students, a half-day for the economic community of Gabon, a screening of the movie “Le théorème de Marguerite”.
