Series of conferences/workshops/schools
A conference series "Mathematical Results in Quantum Theory" (or QMath) was initiated by P. Exner and P. Seba in 1987. The aim is not only to bring together people interested in the "quantum part" of mathematical physics, but in the first place to stimulate a search of new quantum effects and a deeper understanding of quantum physics, as well as development of methods which can help in situations where the standard quantum mechanical tools are inadequate. Up to now there were thirteen meetings, the fourteenths is in preparation:
- QMath1: "Applications of Self-Adjoint Extensions in Quantum Physics" (Dubna, Russia, September 1987)
- QMath2: "Schroedinger Operators, Standard and Non-Standard" (Dubna, September 1988)

Indian-Summer School is a series of summer courses on various topics of physics which has been held annually in Prague and its vicinity since 1988. It is intended for graduate and advanced undergraduate students, postdocs and researchers in the field. The school has been organized by Nuclear Physics Institute of the CAS, sometimes together with Faculty of Mathematics and Physics, Charles University in Prague or Faculty of Nuclear Sciences and Physical Engineering, Czech Technical University in Prague.
Each year of the School has its own website. This page contains just links to them.
