Only a quick put up to promote the workshop “Machine assisted proofs” that will probably be held on Feb 13-17 subsequent yr, right here on the Institute for Pure and Utilized Arithmetic (IPAM); I’m one of many organizers of this occasion along with Erika Abraham, Jeremy Avigad, Kevin Buzzard, Jordan Ellenberg, Tim Gowers, and Marijn Heule. The aim of this occasion is to carry collectively consultants within the numerous forms of formal computer-assisted strategies used to confirm, uncover, or in any other case help with mathematical proofs, in addition to pure mathematicians who’re fascinated about studying concerning the present and future state-of-the-art with such instruments; this appears to be an opportune time to carry these communities collectively, given some current high-profile functions of formal strategies in pure arithmetic (e.g, the liquid tensor experiment). The workshop will include various lectures from each communities, in addition to a panel to debate future instructions. The workshop is open to common members (each in individual and remotely), though there’s a registration course of and a reasonable registration payment to cowl prices and to limit the capability to real candidates.
