Convener Scope and Programme Due to the COVID-19 pandemic that has virtually gripped the globe, gathering of researchers to share individual views with others has not been possible for the last couple of months. So far, we are not sure whether the situation would be favourable in the coming months. Under these prevailing circumstances, we would like to provide a virtual platform to the young research scholars to present their research works before wide class researchers working in various fields of Mathematics and its applications. Moreover, our aim is to provide an opportunity to the researchers working in various fields of mathematics to exchange their scientific thoughts with each other through this webinar. The major areas to be covered in the Webinar includes Algebra, Analysis, Topology, Geometry, Mechanics, Optimization and Operations Research, Discrete Mathematics, Mathematical Physics and other topics related to mathematical sciences. The Webinar will consist of invited talks on emerging fields of research, invited talks on popular topics and presentation of research papers.

It has now emerged as the second largest public university (in terms of student’s enrolment) in the state of West Bengal, containing thirty-five post-graduate departments, and feeding and nourishing more than 230 affiliating colleges spread over three adjourning districts. The University is located in Burdwan, a rapidly growing town situated 100 km north-west of the state capital, Kolkata. The academic campus of the University, sprawling over 316 acres’ of area in Golapbag, is full of natural bio- diversity and has remained serene over the years. The university offers Certificate, Diploma, Honours, Post Graduate, M. Phil and Doctoral Programmes in diverse disciplines. Over 4000 students’ study different post- graduate courses and more than 500 research scholars pursue research works in the academic campus, while the number of students in the under-graduate courses is over two lakh. From its inception, the university has been giving utmost importance to the researches in basic sciences, humanities and commerce. The tireless efforts of the dedicated teachers of this university have brought about majority of the post-graduate departments under the support UGC Special Assistance Programme. At present, five departments are recognized as UGC CAS. All the core science departments have been continuously earning support from the Department of Science and Technology, Government of India under FIST programme for the last two decades or so. Currently, the university is carrying out the Promotion of University Research and Scientific Excellence (PURSE) Phase 2 programme. Apart from those Programmes, a reasonable amount of fund has been mobilized in the last five years through individual’s research and development projects funded by almost all the central and state funding agencies. The university has been consistently doing well in basic and fundamental researches. However, of late, with the availability of some high-end modern equipment, researches in cutting-edge technology have received a great impetus. The University has occupied 23rd position in Nature Index Annual Table 2020 for Physical Science. In ‘India’s Top 150 government universities league table’ of EW India Government University Rankings 2020-21, the university has secured 61st rank. About the Department The Department of Mathematics started its journey from the inception of the University. It has excellent records of teaching and research. Based on its performance, the University Grants Commission of India has identified the Department for Special Assistance Programme DSA (Phase –I). Currently, the Department is supported by the Department of Science and Technology, Government of India under FIST (Phase 3) programme. For the last twenty years, the Department has been receiving financial assistance for Departmental Library from National Board for Higher Mathematics (NBHM), India.

Introduction Swami Vivekananda envisioned a University at Belur Math, West Bengal, the headquarters of the Ramakrishna Mission. In his conversation with Jamshedji Tata, it was indicated that the spirit of austerity, service and renun- ciation, traditionally associated with monasticism could be united with the quest for Truth and Universality that Science embodies. An inevitable fruit of such a synthesis would be a vigorous pursuit of science as an aspect of Karma Yoga. Truth would be sought by research and the knowledge obtained disseminated through teach- ing, making knowledge universally available. The VivekanandaSchool of Mathematical Sciences at the fledgling Ramakrishna Mission Vivekananda University, headquartered at Belur, has been set up keeping these twin ide- als in mind. We shall first indicate that at the National level, a realization of these objectives would fulfill a deeply felt National need. 1.1.

  • The Monk Who Is Sold on Geometry: an Interview with Mahan Maharaj
    The Monk Who is Sold on Geometry: An Interview with Mahan Maharaj Professor Mahan Mj is a young geometric topologist at Ramakrishna Mission Vivekananda University, who combines an esoteric career as a research mathematician and teacher with that of a monk. He belongs to the monastic order, Ramakrishna Mission, founded in 1897 by Swami Vivekananda, a renowned Hindu philosopher. He is currently a Professor in the Department of Mathematics, Ramakrishna Mission Vivekananda University, whose campus is located just outside Belur Math, the Headquarters of the Mission in Kolkata, India. Mahan Mj was recently awarded the Shanti Swarup Bhatnagar Award in the Mathematical Sciences, India’s topmost national award that recognises scientific contributions made by Indian scientists under the age of 45. Initially reluctant to be interviewed, saying that he believed in the “anonymity that a mathematician’s career affords’’, Mahan Mj graciously relented and spoke to Sujatha Ramdorai. Sujatha Ramdorai (SR): Please tell us a little about your background and early education. Mahan Mj (MM): My early schooling was at St Xavier’s College, Kolkata and then I did an Integrated MSc (Maths) degree at IIT Kanpur. SR: When did it become clear to you that a career in Mathematics was what you preferred? MM: It’s the subject I liked most at school. Nevertheless, due presumably to social conditioning, I opted to join the BTech programme at IIT Kanpur in Electrical Engineering for the “security” it would provide. This was, however, with the intention of switching to Maths after the BTech. I expressed the intention of returning to Kolkata and joining ISI (Indian Statistical Institute) Kolkata BStat, a few months into the programme as I didn’t quite enjoy Engineering studies.

    PROPAGATING QUASICONVEXITY FROM FIBERS MAHAN MJ AND PRANAB SARDAR π Abstract. Let 1 → K −→ G −→ Q be an exact sequence of hyperbolic −1 groups. Let Q1 < Q be a quasiconvex subgroup and let G1 = π (Q1). Under relatively mild conditions (e.g. if K is a closed surface group or a free group and Q is convex cocompact), we show that infinite index quasiconvex subgroups of G1 are quasiconvex in G. Related results are proven for metric bundles, developable complexes of groups and graphs of groups. 1. Introduction The aim of this paper is to provide evidence in favor of the following Scholium. Scholium 1.1. For an exact sequence π 1 → K −→ G −→ Q → 1 of hyperbolic groups, and more generally for hyperbolic metric bundles, quasicon- vexity in fibers propagates to quasiconvexity in subbundles. There are two specific examples in which the exact sequence in Scholium 1.1 has been studied: (1) When K = π1(Σ) is the fundamental group of a closed surface of genus g > 1, and Q < MCG(Σ). Here, the exact sequence comes from the Birman exact sequence π 1 → π1(Σ) −→ MCG(Σ.∗) −→ MCG(Σ) → 1, where MCG(Σ.∗) denotes the mapping class group of Σ equipped with a marked point ∗. (2) When K = Fn is the free group on n generators (n> 2), and Q < Out(Fn). Here, the exact sequence comes from the Birman exact sequence for free arXiv:2009.11521v2 [math.GT] 4 Mar 2021 groups π 1 → Fn −→ Aut(Fn) −→ Out(Fn) → 1.

    COMMUTATORS, COMMENSURATORS, AND PSL2 Z p q THOMAS KOBERDA AND MAHAN MJ Abstract. Let H ă PSL2pZq be a finite index normal subgroup which is contained in a principal congruence subgroup, and let ΦpHq‰ H denote a term of the lower central series or the derived series of H. In this paper, we prove that the commensurator of ΦpHq in PSL2pRq is discrete. We thus obtain a natural family of thin subgroups of PSL2pRq whose commensurators are discrete, establishing some cases of a conjecture of Shalom. 1. Introduction The Commensurability Criterion for Arithmeticity due to Margulis [12] [15, 16.3.3] says that among irreducible lattices in semi-simple Lie groups, arithmetic lattices are characterized as those that have dense commensura- tors. During the past decade, Zariski dense discrete subgroups of infinite covolume in semi-simple Lie groups, also known as thin subgroups [17], have gained a lot of attention. Heuristically, thin subgroups should be re- garded as non-arithmetic, even though the essential difference between a thin group and a lattice is that the former has infinite covolume in the ambi- ent Lie group. A question attributed to Shalom makes this heuristic precise in the following way: Question 1.1. [8] Suppose that Γ is a thin subgroup of a semisimple Lie group G. Is the commensurator of Γ discrete? Let X be the symmetric space of non-compact type associated to G and arXiv:1810.11429v2 [math.GR] 10 Jun 2021 X denote its Furstenberg boundary. Question 1.1 has been answered affir- mativelyB in the following cases: Date: June 11, 2021.
