Dear colleagues,


The Department of Mathematics at Colorado State University and the
Department of Computer Science at the University of Colorado, Boulder
invite interested participants to attend a workshop and conference on *Tensors:
Algebra, Computation, and Applications (TACA)*. The central theme of
tensors is meant to bring together several complementary research
areas––pure & applied mathematics, quantum physics, big data, scientific
computing, & theoretical computer science––whose interactions could lead to
breakthroughs.


The workshop will consist of:

   -  Mini-courses + group problem sessions  (June 4—8, U. Colorado Boulder
   Campus)
   -  Presentations of contemporary research and software demonstrations
   (June 9-14, Colorado State University “Pingree Park” Mountain Campus).

Further details about the mini-courses––drawn from the following
topics––will be included in our third announcement in early March:

   - Foundations of algebraic computation
   - Statistical analysis of tensor data
   - Quantum computation
   - Complexity of tensor computations and applications to Computational
   Complexity
   - Tensor equivalence and isomorphism testing in groups and algebras

We especially encourage graduate students and younger researchers to apply
to attend these workshops and subsequent joint problem sessions.


Researchers interested in attending mini courses and the conference should
fill out the following Google form if you have not already done so. (This
is still an informal expression of interest, not yet official
registration.)

*Limited funds are available on a need basis to offset travel costs for
participants, and we are now accepting applications for such funding.*


We hope you can join us!


Best regards,


The Organizers
