A. Alekseev, B. Enriquez, H. Furusho and S. Merkulov are organizing the workshop "GRT, MZVs and associators" on August 20-29 in Les Diablerets. The purpose of this workshop is to bring together the leading experts in the field of multiple zeta-values, associators and the Grothendieck-Teichmueller group as well as a number of young researchers. Its aim is to advance on several important problems: the relation between the Kashiwara-Vergne (KV) and GRT Lie algebras, the topological interpretation of the divergence cocycle, the theory of elliptic MZVs.
The workshop is co-sponsored by the NCCR SwissMAP, the grant "Algebra, Analysis, Geometry and Physics " of the Swiss National Science Foundation (SNSF) and the project MODFLAT of the European Research Council (ERC).
