***************************************************** Winterbraids XIII --- second announcement School on braids and low-dimensional topology Montpellier, February 6-9 2024 ******************************************************

Winterbraids XIII is the 13th edition of an itinerant school on braids and low-dimensional topology, that will be held at Institut Montpelliérain Alexander Grothendieck (Montpellier) from February 6th to 9th, 2024.

The school consists on three 3-hours mini-courses and a special lecture:

* Asilata Bapat (ANU, Australia): Braids and stability conditions * Marco Golla (Nantes, France): Surfaces in 4-manifolds * Bram Petri (Sorbonne, France): Probabilistic methods in low-dimensional hyperbolic geometry

* Vincent Pilaud (Polytechnique, France): Combinatorial geometry

These will be completed by short talks and a poster session devoted to student presentations (not necessarily focused on braids or their generalizations).

The school will be mainly supported by the Institut Montpelliérain Alexander Grothendieck, the Université de Montpellier, the GDR Tresses, the ETH Zürich, and the European Commission.

The school will start on Tuesday morning and will end on Friday at noon. Registrations are avaible online: (deadline 15 november)
