Administration

Description

The call for application is now open.

DEADLINES:
31 December 2026 for financial or visa support
15 March 2027 for all other applications

The Vector Bundles on Algebraic Curves (VBAC) Conferences have been held annually at institutions around the world since 1994 and have played a central role in shaping research directions in the field.

The purpose of VBAC is to bring together leading experts to assess recent developments, identify emerging trends, and define priorities for future research. The 30th edition of the series will serve as the closing event of the Special Program “Moduli Spaces: Geometry, Structures, and Invariants,” to be held at ICTP from February to May 2027.

Topics

Birational geometry of moduli spaces of sheaves, wallcrossing, Brill-Noether theory
Derived categories of moduli spaces of sheaves
Geometry of quasimap spaces
Compactifications and tautological rings of the moduli space of principally polarized abelian varieties
