Holomorphic Differentials in Mathematics and Physics: February 4 – 8, 2019

  Organized by Jayadev Athreya, Steve Bradlow, Sergei Gukov, Andy Neitzke, Anna Wienhard, and Anton Zorich   Holomorphic differentials on Riemann surfaces have long held a distinguished place in low dimensional geometry, dynamics and representation theory. Recently it has become apparent that they constitute a common feature of several other highly active areas of current … Read more

Convergence and Low Regularity in General Relativity: April 29-May 3, 2019

Workshop: Convergence and Low Regularity in General Relativity April 29-May 3, 2019 Organized by: Philippe LeFloch, Jeff Jauregui, Mike Anderson, Christina Sormani To truly address the many open questions that persist in Mathematical General Relativity, one cannot restrict oneself to smooth metrics and strong notions of convergence.   One must apply Lebesgue, Sobolev, Sormani-Wenger Intrinsic … Read more
