The web page of the program
During the period we run a weekly seminar and I took notes from most of the talks. I gather them here in case they could be useful to other people and also to register the interesting atmosphere of the period where a wide variety of topics was discussed, trying to bridge across “cultural divides”.
A word of warning: the notes were taken directly in TeXmacs during the seminar and I haven't attempted any later redaction (only a couple were checked by the speakers). The content reflects my understanding of the talk at the moment it was delivered. Only very minimal cosmetic changes were applied to conform to the style of the web site. Do not use them as reference material.
