In the week June 29 - July 4, 2025, the Scuola Matematica Interuniversitaria will offer a summer course in Cortona, Tuscany, on topics in mathematical billiards.

The course will take place in the castle named Palazzone owned by the Scuola Normale Superiore. The intended audience consists of Ph.D. students writing their theses and postdocs. Applications are now open. Traditionally, 12 applicants will be offered free lodging, breakfast and lunch at the Palazzone.

The Institute of Science and Technology Austria (ISTA) organizes the ISTA Summer School in Dynamical Systems, which will take place on September 22-26, 2025, in Strobl (Austria).

The school will consist of five mini-courses given by Alberto Abbondandolo, Pierre Berger, Abed Bounemoura, Marcel Guardia and Dalia Terhesiu. There will also be a small number of contributed talks and a poster session.

For junior participants selected for the school, the organization will cover local expenses and contribute to travel expenses up to 300 Euro.

The Ph.D. School in Mathematics of the University of Pisa will host a course on the ‘Ergodic theory of geodesic flows’ by Claudio Bonanno. This course will be conducted in person, with the option of remote participation.

The preliminary meeting will be held on February 24 at 3pm (CET). More information about the course is available at https://pagine.dm.unipi.it/bonanno/geodflows-2425.html. The links to the first meeting and to the lectures will be available on the same page.

The Department of Mathematics at KTH (Royal Institute of Technology) announces their third Master Class in Dynamical Systems, which will be held in Stockholm from May 19 to May 23, 2025.

Minicourses will be taught by: Giovanni Forni and Anton Zorich, Kathryn Mann, Florian Richter.

Funding is available to cover costs for a selection of participants (see the application form on the event page above).

The conference On Geometric Complexity of Julia Sets - VI will be held at the Stefan Banach International Mathematical Center, Będlewo, Poland, on August 3 - 8, 2025. It will address a wide range of topics on Complex Dynamics, many of which related to the question of how complex Julia sets can be.

While the organizers hope that most participants and speakers can attend in person, there will be the option to attend virtually. More information can be found on the conference website: https://sites.google.com/impan.pl/25-juliasets/home-page
