2nd Brazil–France School on Foliation Theory

The second Brazil–France School on Foliation Theory will bring together graduate students, postdoctoral researchers, and researchers from the Brazilian and French communities. Building on their longstanding collaboration and the first edition held in 2024, the school aims to introduce participants to different areas of research in foliation theory and encourage new collaborations and scientific exchanges.

The event will take place simultaneously at IMPA and CIRM in a mirror format. The programme will feature four mini-courses: two delivered at IMPA and broadcast live to CIRM, and two delivered at CIRM and broadcast live to IMPA. Each course will begin with an introduction accessible to graduate students and progress towards recent results.

The planned topics include algebraization of meromorphic functions, deformation of rational curves along foliations, singular leaves, and complex dynamics. Short talks will complement the mini-courses. Local exercise and discussion sessions will also take place at both institutions, in the mornings at CIRM and after the broadcast sessions at IMPA.
