Texas-Oklahoma
Representations and Automorphic forms
Texas-Oklahoma Representations and Automorphic forms (TORA) is a conference series, which is hosted in rotation by Oklahoma State University, the University of Oklahoma, and the University of North Texas. These are weekend conferences with talks (usually) on Saturdays & Sundays. There are three invited plenary speakers each meeting: two senior researchers and one junior mathematician.
Texas-Oklahoma Representations and Automorphic forms for Students (TORAS), is the (student-organized) companion conference to TORA, with the specific goal of presenting current research in automorphic forms and representation theory at a level accessible to graduate students.
The
TORA meetings bring together the automorphic
forms and representation theory community of the South Central region
to hear about recent research in automorphic
forms and representation theory. Graduate
students and junior researchers are particularly encouraged to attend
and present their own work.
