Ten years after the successful Cremona Conference 2016, there will be a second edition in 2026. This time, the whole event takes two weeks, where the first week consists of a summer school on Cremona Groups in the wide sense. Cremona groups can be studied from various perspectives. While the subject is classical, new methods from algebraic geometry, dynamics and geometric group theory have led to a renaissance of the field. Nowadays, it is a very active area of research. The five mini-courses will cover algebraic, dynamical and geometric aspects of the topic. The courses are aimed at a broad audience of students in algebra and geometry.
