Hayri Körezlioğlu Research Award

Mathematics Foundation started a research award for young researchers in the name of Prof. Hayri Körezlioğlu, who is the founder of METU Institute of Applied Mathematics, Financial Mathematics Program.

The award is aimed to encourage young researchers in the fields of Financial Mathematics, and Stochastic Processes and its Applications, and to publicize their prestigious work. Starting with for 2012, the award will be given annually.

The application procedure is as follows: The applicant must be younger than 45 years old. The application can be made personally, or an institution can nominate the researcher. The application package should include the resume, the publication list and the publications. These should be emailed to the Chair of Mathematics Foundation (This email address is being protected from spambots.

Abstract

One of the most fundamental questions in representation theory asks for a description of the simple representations. I will give an introduction to this problem with an emphasis on the representation theory of Lie groups and algebras. A recurring theme throughout the history of the subject is the appearance of geometric techniques in seemingly algebraic problems.
