Abstract for Research Report This workshop is a sequel and an extension of the "IMI workshop II: Mathematics of Screw Dislocation" held on September 1-2, 2016, the "IMI workshop I: Mathematics in Interface, Dislocation, and Structure of Crystals" held on August 28-30, 2017, the "IMI workshop II: Advanced Mathematical Analysis of Dislocation" held on September 10-11, 2018, "IMI workshop II: Advanced Mathematical Analysis for Dislocation, Interface, and Structure in Crystals" held on September 9-10, 2019, and "IMI workshop II: Geometry and Algebra in Material Science I" held on September 7-8, 2020, and "IMI workshop II: Geometry and Algebra in Material Science I" held on August 30-31, 2021.

Based on the results of these workshops, and especially continuing the "Geometry and Algebra in Materials Science I" and "Geometry and Algebra in Materials Science II" held the year before last and last year, this workshop aims at the interaction between materials science and geometry and algebra. This aim is due to the following reasons:
1.Technological development has drastically changed the specifications required by industry.
2. For example, observation and preparation equipment development has enabled the control and observation of structures at the atomic level.
3. The phenomena cannot be described well only by the mathematics conventionally used in material science.
In the field of Analysis, it seems that there is already an interaction between materials scientists and mathematicians, but in geometry and algebra, the interaction between materials scientists and mathematicians is still limited. In addition, advanced use of mathematics by geometers and algebraists is desired for the phenomena related to geometry and algebra. Therefore, the purpose of this meeting is to provide a forum for discussion between researchers in materials science and those in geometry and algebra, and to provide an opportunity for mutual understanding. It is expected to accelerate research related to the adaptation of geometry and algebra to materials science, which is rapidly becoming a necessity in materials science in the 21st century. Although these new movements are not yet in full swing as a research field, it is hoped that this workshop will serve as a cornerstone and foothold for them. Three papers have already been published as a result of the series of these research meetings. It is expected that further development will be achieved through this workshop.
