| BAP-Career, Jan 2026- Jan 2028: Multiple holomorph of p-groups with class less than p and p-groups of maximal class Project PI: Şükran Gül Erdem Area: Group Theory Group Members: Gustavo Fernandez-Alcober Overview: This project aims to find a sharp lower bound for the order of the quotient of the multiple holomorph by the holomorph when G is a p-group with class < p or a p-group of maximal class. |
| TÜBİTAK 1001 Project, 2025-2028: Fibrations in Derived Symplectic and Contact Geometries Project PI: Mehmet Fırat Arıkan Area: Algebraic geometry, symplectic/contact geometry, and higher category theory Overview: This project aims to investigate fibrations in derived symplectic and contact geometries and provide new results. Our main techniques include analogous constructions in derived symplectic geometry and higher category theory. Group members: Researcher: Kadri İlker Berktav, PhD student fellow: Berat Geven, MSc student fellow: Muhammed Şen Website/email list/contact info: Higher Structures Group webpage; contact: farikan@metu.edu.tr or berktav@metu.edu.tr |
| TÜBİTAK 1001 Project (19.11.2025-19.11.2028): Generating Sets for Big Mapping Class Groups and Handlebody Groups Project PI: Mehmetcik Pamuk Area: Topology Overview: Generating Sets for Big Mapping Class Groups and Handlebody Groups Group members:Tülin Altunöz Yazıcı, Emir Gül, Celal Can Bellek, Berkay Aybak |
| TÜBİTAK 1001 Project (24.04.2025-24.10.2026): Closed Ramsey numbers of countable ordinals Project PI: Burak Kaya Area: Topology Overview: The project is about determining the topological and closed Ramsey numbers of pairs of small countable ordinals Group members: Necdet Duman, Özge Gönül, Jayatra Saxena, Yiğithan Tamer |
| TÜBİTAK 1001 Project, 2024-2027: Geometry of Singular Points in Pluripotential Theory Project PI: Özcan Yazıcı Area: Several Complex Variables and Algebraic Geometry Overview: Plurisubharmonic functions and currents are central theme in the study of puripotential theory. Using the tools of algebraic geometry and pluripotential theory, we try to understand the configuration of singular points of currents with large Lelong numbers. Group members: Researcher: A.U.Özgür Kişisel, Postdoctoral research fellow: Sadık Terzi, Master student fellow: M. Yiğit Demir |
| TÜBİTAK 1001 Project, 2024-2027: Global Barrier Method in Random Algebraic Geometry and the Bitangent Counting Problem Project PI: Ali Ulaş Özgür Kişisel Area: Algebraic Geometry and Probability Theory Overview: The project is about a probabilistic approach to algebraic geometry. In particular, it aims to develop techniques to understand the statistics of topological quantities related to real and complex algebraic varieties Group members: Turgay Bayraktar, Turan Karakurt, Mustafa Mehmet Kayakökü, Fatih Yokuş.
