Conference "Encounters in Geometry"

“几何相遇”会议将于2013年6月3日至7日在巴西的卡波弗里奥举行。 我们选择了三个在过去几年中特别有成效的主题，大多数演讲将集中在这三个主题上：1）具有下曲率界的流形，包括非负曲率和正曲率; 2）黎曼叶理，包括群作用的轨道几何; 3）子流形几何。该基金将为10-15名美国研究生和10-15名美国数学家提供从美国到里约热内卢的旅行，重点是最近的博士学位。's.地方支助由巴西赠款支付。将积极争取和鼓励妇女和少数民族的参与。会议将为美国研究生和最近的博士生提供一个环境。通过巴西和国际专家的研究讲座，他们可以了解几何学的新发展。第二个目标是将巴西的几何学家介绍给目前在美国活跃的学科。 参与者还将有机会通过讲座和海报展示会展示他们的成果。URL：http://www.impa.br/opencms/pt/eventos/store/evento_1302

The conference "Encounters in Geometry" will take place June 3 to 7, 2013 in Cabo Frio, Brazil. We have selected three topics that have been particularly productive over the last few years, on which most talks will concentrate: 1) manifolds with lower curvature bounds, including non-negative and positive curvature; 2) Riemannian foliations, including the orbit geometry of group actions; 3) submanifold geometry.The grant will supply travel from the US to Rio de Janeiro for 10-15 graduate students and 10-15 mathematicians from the US, with an emphasis on recent Ph.D.'s. Local support is paid for by Brazilian grants. Participation by women and minorities will be actively sought and encouraged. The conference will provide an environment for American graduate students and recent Ph.D.'s in which they can learn about new developments in geometry, through research talks by Brazilian and international experts. A second goal is to introduce geometers in Brazil to subjects currently active in the US. The participants will also be given an an opportunity to present their results through talks and poster sessions.URL: http://www.impa.br/opencms/pt/eventos/store/evento_1302
