At the Institute for the Theory of STEM, we have held, or will hold, the following summer schools.

Toy Index Theorems (2027)

From Differential Geometry to Topology (2026): Gauss-Bonnet, Tensor Networks, a further round of Hopf’s Little Mathematics. This has been approximately 2/3rds written up so far: *** and ***.

No summer school in 2025, because of the size of the hole that our A. Ford burned into our “Flat Geometry via Linear Algebra in Detail” program… By which what would have been summer school material was given instead in the Autumn term, some of A. Ford’s contributions included! Here are some links to this material… *Annals* , *PURiAT*

Hopf’s Little map and Linear Algebra of Triangles and Quadrilaterals (2024) ***

Combinatorics of Basic Linear Algebra (2023) ***

Applied Combinatorics (2022) resulting in the following book: ***

Prior to this, the Institute had not fully formed. There are two predecessor Summer Schools, however, on the conceptsofshape site *** .

Global and Combinatorial Methods in Fundamental Physics (2021) ***

Problem of Time is Lie Theory (2020) ***
