About:
The workshop’s goal is to explore connections across mathematical communities that study different geometric moduli spaces. Our workshop will bring together researchers from positive scalar curvature geometry, minimal surface theory, harmonic mapping theory, and special geometries. The study of moduli spaces naturally draws on a confluence of ideas from neighbouring fields, and in each of these areas there is a tradition of exploiting rigidity, genericity, and stability phenomena.
Despite many parallel developments, there has been surprisingly limited interaction and cross-collaboration across these communities. This workshop aims to foster new connections and to elucidate future research directions.
Invited participants were sent an email invitation by ICMS in early September.
To apply to attend the workshop, please submit your application via the 'apply here to attend' button above. The application deadline is Friday 29 November. No late applications will be accepted. The aim is to notify all applicants of the decisions of the scientific organisers by mid-December.
