The purpose of the Hermitian Program is to give a shelter to small groups of researchers to enhance their joint research in the stimulating atmosphere of PMI. Researchers in the Hermitian Program can concentrate on their research without any hindrances.

A research group of the Hermitian Program should stay for a period of duration one to three weeks. It should consist of two to five researchers. The Institute will provide office space and accommodation(room and board). Travel expenses can be reimbursed only in exceptional cases. The Institute will be able to support one group a month on the average. The obligation of a research group of Hermitian Program is to give talks on its research during the stay at PMI.
