Introduction

Reflection arrangements appear in various areas of mathematics including algebra, combinatorics, differential geometry, integrability and singularity theory. The concrete research strands within these areas that this workshop focused on include Cherednik algebras, Coxeter-Catalan combinatorics, logarithmic vector fields, Frobenius manifolds and flat invariants. The main goals of the workshop were to bring together specialists from these diverse fields, to explore remarkable connections between these areas, to enhance viewpoints and to stimulate further research.

The keynote talks were given by P. Etingof, C. Hertling, V. Reiner, A. Shepler and M. Yoshinaga.

The workshop was organised in partnership with the Clay Mathematics Institute.
