Categorical symmetries in representation theory. This project aims to develop categorical symmetries of central objects in mathematics such as braid groups, the Hilbert scheme of points, and the Virasoro algebra. The concept of symmetry is an important organising principle in science. Representation theory is the field of mathematics concerned with studying symmetries. The problems proposed have connections to many different areas including algebra, geometry, topology, and mathematical physics. ....Categorical symmetries in representation theory.

Macdonald polynomials: Combinatorics and representations. This proposal is part of the aim to build a world class research team in algebraic combinatorics and combinatorial representation theory at the University of Melbourne, led by the two CI.
These fields are currently experiencing very rapid growth and development, and a strong Australia based team will further enhance the country's strong reputation in combinatorics and algebra.
The project will also provide a perfect training ground fo ....Macdonald polynomials: Combinatorics and representations.

These fields are currently experiencing very rapid growth and development, and a strong Australia based team will further enhance the country's strong reputation in combinatorics and algebra.
The project will also provide a perfect training ground for Higher Degree Students with interests in pure mathematics as well as computer
algebra and symbolic computation.Read moreRead less

Summary
Energetically Open Systems Research Network Study. Conceptual frameworks arising in the physical sciences, such as non-equilibrium statistical mechanics and thermodynamics, synergetics, chaos and dynamical systems theory, are seminal in the emerging science of complexity. This study will lay the groundwork for a network to link Australian and overseas research on these fundamental concepts, and their application within the context of entropy-producing systems vital to the long-term sustainabilit ....Energetically Open Systems Research Network Study. Conceptual frameworks arising in the physical sciences, such as non-equilibrium statistical mechanics and thermodynamics, synergetics, chaos and dynamical systems theory, are seminal in the emerging science of complexity. This study will lay the groundwork for a network to link Australian and overseas research on these fundamental concepts, and their application within the context of entropy-producing systems vital to the long-term sustainability of the earth - oceans, atmosphere, biosphere, CO2-free energy production, space and solar environment. The network would facilitate the development of young investigators and be linked into wider complex systems networks such as the CSIRO Centre for Complex Systems Science.Read moreRead less
