The study of algebraic torus actions on algebraic varieties has developed into a highly successful branch of algebraic geometry known as toric geometry. In symplectic geometry there has been a great deal of activity since the 1980s studying Hamiltonian group actions on symplectic manifolds. In both cases, geometric constructions are studied by translating them into combinatorics. During the past two decades, these examples of algebraic and symplectic manifolds with a torus action have been generalized topologically, sacrificing some algebraic and symplectic properties to focus on the topological and combinatorial ones.

 The workshop will introduce and explore new themes of research in toric topology. It will provide an opportunity for interaction between people who work on different aspects of torus actions, such as topological, combinatorial, symplectic and algebro-geometric.
