* AIMS (African Institute Mathematical Sciences)-Cape Town, Muizenberg (South Africa),
* from Sunday, July 19th, to Friday, July 31st, 2015.
The aim of the research school is to explore recent research trends including : interactions between finite groups and infinite dimensional Lie algebras, connections between quantum groups and knot theory.
The basic material will be provided in 6 mini-lectures in the first week of the school. In addition, 14 one-hour advanced lectures will provide related and more advanced material in the second week.
