About
The South Pacific Mathematics Exchange Seminar (SOUPAMES) aims to build a sense of community among mathematicians working in Australia and the Pacific, in connection with the French mathematical community. It is organised by the ANU-CNRS France Australia Mathematical Sciences and Interactions International Research Lab, and supported by the Australia-France Pacific Shared Knowledge Initiative.
SOUPAMES will involve the following activities:
- accessible micro-talks (15 minutes) by the participants, aiming to give everybody an idea of what the research of members of the community is about,
- specialised thematic working groups (at least one in Algebra, and one in Analysis) involving in-depth research discussions between SOUPAMES participants and MSI staff members,
- outreach talks presenting the research of members of the community to non mathematicians (including representatives of the French CNRS),
- talks and cultural walk aiming to give participants a sense of place in the region, cognisant of both French and British colonial history, while visiting the ANU on Ngunnawal and Ngambri Country,
- social activities to build connections.
Taking a long term view, the meeting will be particularly focused on early career researchers.
