2022年“清华大学丘成桐中学生数学夏令营”报名通知

The Department of Mathematical Sciences of Tsinghua University, Yau Mathematical Sciences Center and Yanqi Lake Beijing Institute of Mathematical Sciences and Applications are intended to hold the Tsinghua YAU Summer Mathcamp for Secondary School Students (hereinafter referred to as the “Mathcamp”) at Tsinghua University/Yanqi Lake Beijing Institute of Mathematical Sciences and Applications from July to August, 2022.

The Mathcamp is designed for students who love mathematics, are passionate about this subject, and have some basic competency in this respect. This event aims to enable students to learn about mathematics of modern times and have access to modern mathematical research. The Mathcamp mainly invites outstanding teenagers. We will rigorously select 70-80 students from those who have submitted applications for the Mathcamp held at Tsinghua University. These students with potential are expected to devote themselves to mathematical research in the future through the enlightenment by this summer camp so that our goal of training a new generation of young mathematical research talents can be achieved.

We will offer three mathematical courses for four weeks, including linear algebra, algebraic combinatorics, and analysis and topology. These courses cover essential tools and applications for modern scientific research. In order to teach these courses to the students within four weeks, we will invite experts from all localities to give lectures to the students. The Mathcamp is not limited to standard classroom learning. Some courses are also combined with special research projects and students are encouraged to deliver special lectures and publish their research results in the last few days of the camp. During the Mathcamp, a tutorial class will be arranged each afternoon. Coaches will lead students in discussing about and doing exercises or talking about the special research.

Announcements
  • [July 25th]There will be an online colloquium this Saturday(July 30) at 9:00AM.
    Title: Geometry from chaos, or limit shapes in statistical mechanics.
    Speaker: Professor Nicolai Reshetikhin
    Abstract: This lecture will start with the statistical analysis of an unbiased coin tossing. The limit shape phenomenon occur for when the number of tossings is very large (tends to infinity). We will see that the limit shape here is 1/2 and will compute the structure of fluctuations near the limit shape. Then we will focus on discrete random surfaces. We will see that they will develop deterministic limit shape (emergent geometry) and how they fluctuate around it. No advance prior knowledge is required.
  • [July 13th]There will be an online colloquium this Saturday(July 16) at 16:00.
    Title: The history of gauge theory (规范场的发展史)
    Speaker: Professor Shing-Tung Yau (丘成桐教授）
    Abstract: In this talk, we will review the history of gauge theory in mathematics and physics.
