Ring Theory Conferences in Graz

The conference at the Institute of Analysis and Number Theory of Technische Universität Graz (TU Graz), July 14-19, 2025, continues the series of biennial ring-theory conferences held alternatingly at the two math departments in Graz since 2012 - at TU in 2012, at KFU in 2014, at TU in 2016, at KFU in 2018, at TU in 2021, and at KFU in 2023. We hope to see the participants of the previous events again in Graz 2025, as well as many new participants.

What is more, the series of conferences will continue, with a Conference on Rings and Factorizations 2027 in Ljubljana.
