Quantum Groups, Deformations, and Geometry
A Conference in Memory of Joseph Donin
15-17 June 2014
This satellite conference
of the Second Joint AMS-IMU
Meeting is dedicated to the memory of Prof. Joseph
Donin, who suddenly passed away in January 2004. One of the fields Joseph
Donin was actively working in was the
deformation of algebraic structures on geometric spaces. He devoted his last 16 years to
equivariant quantization of
G-manifolds. The conference will cover equivariant quantization and related
topics of quantum algebra and representation theory. Applications to mathematical physics
including integrable systems will also be addressed.

- Prof. Roman Bezrukavnikov Department of Mathematics, MIT, bezrukav@math.mit.edu
- Prof. Steven Shnider Department of Mathematics, Bar Ilan University, shnider@math.biu.ac.il
