Here is a collection of photos taken during the winter school.

Goal

The goal of the winter school is to present state-of-the-art methods in Galois theory to graduate students and postdocs. We will focus on Galois representations, in particular on Serre's modularity conjecture, and on several of the patching technics and their various applications. Prior to the school, there will be three preparatory days on background material.

Preparatory days, 15 - 17 February 2012

• Profinite Groups - Luis Ribes
• Field Theory - Wulf-Dieter Geyer
• Modular Forms - Johan Bosman
• Question Sessions

Winter School, 20 - 24 February 2012

• Galois Representations - Gebhard Böckle
• Serre's Modularity Conjecture - Michael Schein
• Patching in Galois Theory - Moshe Jarden
• Patching in Algebra - David Harbater
• Research talks
