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富有成效的主题，大多数演讲将集中在这三个主题上：1)具有较低曲率界限的流形，包括非负曲率和正曲率；2)黎曼叶层，包括群作用的轨道几何；3)子流形几何。助学金将提供从美国到里约热内卢的10-15名研究生和10-15名美国数学家的旅行，重点是最近的博士S。巴西的资助由当地资助。将积极寻求和鼓励妇女和少数群体的参与。这次会议将为美国研究生和新近获得博士学位的S提供一个环境，让他们通过巴西和国际专家的研究讲座，了解几何领域的新发展。第二个目标是将巴西的几何学家介绍给目前活跃在美国的受试者。与会者还将有机会通过演讲和海报会议展示他们的成果。网址：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
