Representation Theory, Geometry, and Mathematical Physics A Conference in Honor of the 90th Birthday of A. A. Kirillov
A Conference in Honor of the 90th Birthday of A. A. Kirillov

Dates: May 26–27, 2026

Location: Simons Center for Geometry and Physics

Institution: Stony Brook University

Celebrating the Legacy of Alexandre Alexandrovich Kirillov

Alexandre Alexandrovich Kirillov stands as one of the most influential mathematicians of the twentieth century. His pioneering development of the orbit method—which elegantly links the coadjoint orbits of Lie groups to unitary representations—fundamentally transformed the landscape of representation theory.

The profound impact of his work continues to resonate across the fields of geometry, mathematical physics, and algebra. This conference gathers leading mathematicians to celebrate Professor Kirillov’s 90th birthday and the enduring legacy of a vision that continues to shape modern mathematics.
