GROUPS AND GEOMETRY

Master 2 degree in fundamental mathematics (M2R) of the University of Grenoble Alpes offers each year a training in research in a selected topic, with possibilities to pursue in a PhD in the Institut Fourier (Grenoble), one of the French prominent institute in pure mathematics. Courses are taught in English if non-french-speaking students are registered.

The topic of the academic year 2020-21 lies at the cross road of geometry, topology and algebra , with applications to geometric group theory, homological algebra, representation theory and besides also to number theory. The possible outlets and opportunities comprise a large range of domains and applications.

The courses are structured to provide the students with a comprehensive background on the subjects and preparing them to several possible directions, following their wishes.

In particular, an accent will be payed to a possible pursue in advanced research in some of the most relevant areas in pure mathematics.

Applications to the Master 2 year and to the grants will be opened on this server (click) from January 21, 2020 to June 30, 2020, but beware for candidates from outside Europe we recommend that you apply by the end of May 2020.

All information about GRANTS and SCHOLARSHIPS are available in this page (click). CROUS Scholarships applications will also open soon on this page (click). We strongly recommend to apply quickly, because we experienced last year that CROUS seems to refuse the applications if they are made too late.

The welcome meeting to our Master 2 degree is on September 7th 2020, at 10:30 am, in Room 04, at the groundfloor of the Fourier Institute. The courses will begin the same day.

Preparatory course Tuesdays 8/9 and 15/9 from 09:00 to 15h30 in Room 14. You can find the notes of this course HERE.
