About ADU
Algebra Down Under (ADU), the 10th Australian Algebra Conference, is an international meeting that brings together mathematicians from around the world. The conference will be held at Western Sydney University from November 16–20, 2026.
Beyond the formal program, the conference is committed to fostering an inclusive and welcoming environment. We strongly encourage participation from mathematicians in developing countries, members of Aboriginal and Indigenous communities, women in mathematics, and individuals from other underrepresented groups, with the aim of building a diverse and representative mathematical gathering.
In addition to plenary and contributed talks, ADU will offer ample opportunities for informal discussions and networking, supporting collaboration and strengthening connections within the global algebra community. We look forward to welcoming you to Sydney!
