The seminar is the second of two consecutive seminars dedicated to the problem of the connection of the Abrikosov-Bogomolny equations with the physics of topological effects. While the first seminar focused on the classical scalar case and laid the foundation for understanding self-dual vortex structures in type II superconductors, this seminar explores the Abrikosov-Bogomolny equations with the inclusion of spin degrees of freedom. The speaker: Mauro Doria, a member of the IAS project and a professor at the Federal University of Rio de Janeiro.

This is the first of two consecutive seminars on the problem of the Abrikosov-Bogomolny equations and their connection with topological phenomena. The seminar was devoted to the consideration of the Abrikosov-Bogomolny equations in the spinless (scalar) mode, which operate in 2nd-order superconductors near the upper critical field and in the crossover region between 2nd- and 1st-order superconductivity.The focus of the seminar is to obtain the Abrikosov-Bogomolny equations from the kinetic energy of a Schrödinger scalar field by decomposing this energy into three parts, which is known as a special case of the Laplace operator representation through the Lichnerowicz Laplace operator and leads to a local relation between the magnetic induction and the superconducting order parameter.

On 16 March 2026, the second seminar in an educational series for early‑career researchers, organized by the International Laboratory of Intangible-driven Economy (IDLab) at the National Research University Higher School of Economics (HSE) in collaboration with the Iran University of Science and Technology (IUST), was held. The event was conducted within HSE’s "International Academic Cooperation" project and attracted more than 40 participants. The speaker was Dennis C. Coates, Professor of Economics at the University of Maryland, Baltimore County (UMBC) and Editor‑in‑Chief of the Journal of Sports Economics.

About Conference Participation

On February 20, 2026, the International Laboratory of Intangible-driven Economy (IDLab) hosted a scientific seminar featuring two research presentations. Petr Parshakov presented findings from a study on gender discrimination in investment seeking, while Iuliia Naidenova discussed whether companies leverage the disclosure of "green" intellectual capital in ESG reporting to restore their reputation following scandals.

On January 20, 2026, the IL LLFP, in collaboration with the Department of Philosophy of the Ural Institute for the Humanities at the Ural Federal University named after the first President of Russia B. N. Yeltsin and the Centre for Logic, Epistemology and the History of Science at the University of Campinas, held the Russian-Brazilian Colloquium “Inferential Knowledge about Fictions: How We Infer, and How Far These Inferences Go.”

The first year of the project "Internationalization of Companies from Developing Countries: The Role of Intellectual Resources in Response to Exogenous Shocks", implemented in 2025–2027 under the HSE University Joint Basic Research Projects ‘International Academic Cooperation’ competition, has been successfully concluded. The project is carried out by the International Laboratory of Intangible-driven Economy at HSE University in collaboration with Iran University of Science and Technology, under the supervision of Maria Molodchik and Amir Zakeri. All planned commitments for the first year have been fully fulfilled.

On October 30^th-31^st, the Perm campus of the National Research University "Higher School of Economics" (HSE) hosted researchers from 16 Russian and 9 international universities for the XII International Conference on Applied Research in Economics "iCare." The two-day event focused on internationalization in emerging economies, featuring key presentations from Professor Kazi Sohag, Head of the Laboratory of International and Regional Economics at Ural Federal University (h-index 41), and Professor Kayhan Tajeddini of Tokyo International University's Department of Strategic Management and International Business.

From October 21 to 24, 2025, the 23rd Conference on International Exchange of Professionals took place in Shanghai and Beijing, bringing together more than 7,000 scientists and experts from around the world. HSE University was represented by Ivan Arzhantsev, Dean of the Faculty of Computer Science, and Vasily Gromov, Head of the Laboratory for Semantic Analysis of the Centre for Language and Semantic Technologies.
