Geometry Workshop

University of Copenhagen

June 11-15, 2012

We are planning two days of talks, and the rest of the week we plan to have ad hoc activity

Program: Here is a tentative program for the workshop.

  • June 11, 10:15-11:00, Peter Petersen, UCLA: Existence and Uniqueness of warped Product Einstein Metrics I.
  • June 11, 11:15-12:00, Bruce Kleiner, NYU: Asymptotic geometry, finite generation of fundamental groups, and harmonic functions I.
  • June 11, 14:15-15:00, John Lott, Berkeley: Collapsing with a lower bound on the curvature operator.
  • June 11, 15:15-16:00, Burkhard Wilking, Münster: A generalization of Gromovs almost flat manifolds Theorem
  • June 11, 16:15-17:00. Karsten Grove: Tits geometry and positive curvature I
  • June 12 10:15-11:00, Peter Petersen, UCLA: Existence and Uniqueness of warped Product Einstein Metrics II.
  • June 12, 11:15-12:00, Bruce Kleiner, NYU: Bilipschitz embedding in Banach spaces.
  • June 12, 14:15-15:00, John Lott, Berkeley: Geometry of the space of probability measures.

The rest of the week we will arrange ad hoc activity
