📚Matrix Pencils and Linear Relations

Join Francisco Martínez Pería from Instituto Argentino de Matemática, CONICET for an insightful online course on the relationship between Kronecker invariants of matrix pencils and spectral properties of linear relations, with applications to perturbation problems.

Abstract:
The first part of this course is devoted to presenting the Kronecker canonical form of a matrix pencil. We hope that the course will be useful for anyone interested in studying systems of linear algebraic differential equations, since they often require an accessible, but rigorous, introduction to the Kronecker form. In the second part of the course, we briefly introduce the theory of linear relations, to present a canonical form for linear relations in a finite dimensional vector space, which can be described by means of the so-called Weyr characteristic of a linear relation. Finally, we show how to represent a matrix pencil by means of two different linear relations: its kernel representation and its range representation. Also, we show how to determine the Kronecker invariants of the pencil using the Weyr characteristic of these linear relations, and vice versa.

📅 Dates: November 3-6, 2026
🕒 Time: 14:00–16:00 (Paris time)
📍 Venue: Luigi Stasi Seminar Room, ICTP

📢 Global Survey on Women Scientists in Crisis and Emergency Contexts

UNESCO and Data-Pop Alliance invite scientists and organizations worldwide to participate in a global survey exploring the roles, contributions, and challenges of scientists working in crisis and emergency situations, with a particular focus on women scientists.

🌍 Your experience matters! Whether you have personally experienced a crisis or emergency or represent an organization, your insights can contribute to a better understanding of the challenges faced by scientists in these contexts.

📝 Survey details:
- Available in Arabic, Chinese, English, French, Russian, and Spanish
- Takes approximately 20 minutes to complete
- Open to individual and organizational responses

📅 Deadline: 22 November 2026

📲 Scan the QR codes in the poster to access the survey and share your perspective!

We encourage the scientific community to participate and help amplify the voices of women scientists worldwide.

📣 Call for Applications | CIMPA Mentoring Program

CIMPA is launching a new Mentoring Program connecting students and early-career researchers with experienced members of the mathematical community. The program is especially designed to support researchers in low- and middle-income countries through academic guidance, scientific exchange, and professional development. 🌍📐

We are now inviting members of the CIMPA community to become mentors. Mentors will commit for one year, meeting virtually with their mentee for around one hour per month to provide career guidance, encouragement, scientific exchange, and feedback on academic materials such as manuscripts, CVs, grant applications, and research proposals.

🤝 Mentor–mentee matching will consider scientific interests, geographical proximity, language, and cultural background.

Interested in supporting the next generation of mathematicians? Join the CIMPA Mentoring Program!
