AGGITatE is an annual workshop taking place at the University of Essex. Its aim is to bring together researchers working in algebraic geometry and algebraic groups.

The 2026 edition will be part of the broader “Algebraic groups, geometry, invariants and related topics” one-month Isaac Newton Institute Satellite Programme taking part at Essex in July 2026.

About the AGGITatE series

The first AGGITatE conference was to take place in 2020 but was delayed to 2022 due to the CoViD pandemic and, back then the acronym stood for “Algebraic Groups and Geometric Invariant Theory at Essex” as a way to bring together researchers working in algebraic groups and algebraic geometry. The second AGGITatE took place in 2023 and focused in algebraic groups and the Cremona group. The third AGGITatE (2024) centred around moduli theory of varieties and it doubled as a London Mathematical Society Research School. The subject of the fourth AGGITatE (2025) was Groups, Representations and Cohomology. The fifth edition of AGGITatE (2026) will be part of a one-month INI Satellite Programme on algebraic geometry and algebraic groups.
