16:25-17:05 Maxim Zabzine (Uppsala) "Odd dimensional gauge theories and contact geometry"
17:05-17:45 Michael Shapiro (Michigan State) "Pentagram map and cluster algebra" abs

Wednesday, July 4:

14:30-15:10 Daniel Persson (Gothenburg) "Hyperholomorphic bundles and dilogarithm identities"
15:10-15:50 Igor Burban (Bonn) "Vector bundles on curves of genus one and the classical Yang-Baxter equation" abs

The talks will be at the AGH University of Science and Technology, room 118, A3.

The thematic session is one in the series of three events associated with ECM. Another event is the Mini-Symposium 25 Years of Quantum Groups: From Definition to Classification which will be held during the Congress, on the 5th of July. The speakers will include:

Yuri Manin (Bonn) "Symmetries and deformations in noncommutative geometries based upon operads" abs
Michael Semenov-Tian-Shansky (Dijon) "Duality for Poisson Lie groups and for Quantum groups: from Quantum R-matrices to Quantum Virasoro"
Stanislaw Woronowicz (Warsaw) "Drinfeld double in the C^*-algebra setting" abs
Efim Zelmanov (San Diego) "Towards classification of quantum groups"

Finally, there will be a conference 3Quantum: Algebra Geometry Information which will be held in Tallinn right after the Congress, from the 10th to the 14th of July.
