Bloomington Geometry Workshop

摘要奖：DMS-0607956主要研究员：克里斯托弗·G·康奈尔、大卫·M·费舍尔、马蒂亚斯·韦伯布鲁明顿几何工作坊汇集了领先的几何学家，讨论和传播几何及相关领域的最新进展。今年的演讲者名单包括DenisAuroux、Manfred Einseidler、Nikolai Ivanov、Gregory Marguis和Juan Souto。这些演讲者将向与会者介绍辛几何、齐次空间上的动力学以及数论、刚性理论、双曲几何和泰奇穆勒理论的应用。研讨会的目的是促进中西部地区研究人员之间的合作和协作，并帮助教育研究生和年轻研究人员几何方面的最新发展。大部分资金将用于资助研究生和新近毕业的博士研究生的旅行。这些年轻的研究人员将在毕业后更好地准备参与当前的几何研究，这是一个对计算机图形学、量子物理、材料科学和许多其他科学学科很重要的基础研究领域。欲了解更多信息，请访问会议网站athttp://www.math.indiana.edu/programs/bgw/2006/.

AbstractAward: DMS-0607956Principal Investigator: Christopher G. Connell, David M. Fisher, Matthias WeberThe Bloomington Geometry Workshop brings together leadinggeometers to discuss and disseminate recent advances in geometryand related fields. This year's list of speakers includes DenisAuroux, Manfred Einseidler, Nikolai Ivanov, Gregory Margulis andJuan Souto. These speakers will inform participants of work insymplectic geometry, dynamics on homogeneous spaces andapplications to number theory, rigidity theory, hyperbolicgeometry and Teichmuller theory.The purpose of the Workshop is to help foster cooperation andcollaboration among researchers in the midwest region as well ashelp educate graduate students and young researchers about thelatest developments in geometry. Most of the funding will be usedto support the travel of graduate students and recentPhD's. These young researchers will come away from the workshopbetter prepared to take part in current research in geometry, afield of basic research that is important to computer graphics,quantum physics, material science, and many other scientificdisciplines.For more information, see the conference Web site athttp://www.math.indiana.edu/programs/bgw/2006/.
