Workshop on Global Riemannian Geometry

AbstractAward：DMS-0813659首席研究员：Frederick Wilhelm该奖项为美国参加将于2008年5月在墨西哥国立自治大学（IMATE-UNAM库埃尔纳瓦卡）数学研究所（库埃尔纳瓦卡）举行的全球黎曼几何研讨会提供部分支持。 会议将包括两个迷你课程由DetlefGromoll，Gerard Walschap和Karsten格罗夫教授，加上大约18个研究讲座。 在会议之前，将为参加研讨会的初级学生开设一门额外的小型课程，回顾基本的黎曼几何。会议旨在向初级参与者传播黎曼几何最新进展的知识，促进女性和少数民族研究人员参与这一主题，加强黎曼几何在墨西哥的存在，并鼓励墨西哥几何研究人员之间的合作，拉丁美洲的其他国家，美国，加拿大和欧洲。 该讲习班得到了Clay数学研究所、CIMAT、CONACYT、国际数学联盟、IMATE-UNAM以及NSF的支持。 会议网址是http://www.matcuer.unam.mx/e/dg/。

AbstractAward: DMS-0813659Principal Investigator: Frederick WilhelmThis award provides partial support for US participation in aWorkshop in Global Riemannian Geometry to be held at theInstituto de Matematicas (Unidad Cuernavaca) Universidad NacionalAutonoma de Mexico (IMATE-UNAM Cuernavaca) in May 2008. Themeeting will consist of two mini-courses taught by DetlefGromoll, Gerard Walschap, and Karsten Grove, plus approximatelyeighteen research talks. The conference will be preceded by anadditional mini-course reviewing basic Riemannian geometry toprepare student participants for the workshop.The conference aims to disseminate knowledge of recent progressin Riemannian geometry among junior participants, to promote theinvolvement of female and minority researchers in the subject, tostrengthen the presence of Riemannian geometry in Mexico, and toencourage collaborations between geometric researchers in Mexico,other countries of Latin America, the United States, Canada, andEurope. The workshop is receiving support from the ClayMathematical Institute, CIMAT, CONACYT, the InternationalMathematics Union, and the IMATE-UNAM, as well as NSF.
