The meeting continued the biannual conference series Differentialgeometrie im Großen at the MFO which was established in the 60’s by Klingenberg and Chern. Global Riemannian geometry with its connections to topology, ...

This is the collection of extended abstracts for the 26 lectures and the open problem session at the fourth Oberwolfach workshop on Discrete Differential Geometry.

This is the collection of extended abstracts for the 24 lectures and the open problems session at the third Oberwolfach workshop on Discrete Differential Geometry.

We study the homotopy type of the space $\mathcal{E}(L)$ of unparametrised embeddings of a split link $L=L_1\sqcup \ldots \sqcup L_n$ in $\mathbb{R}^3$. Inspired by work of Brendle and Hatcher, we introduce a semi-simplicial ...

Dynamics of the Teichmüller geodesic flow on the moduli space of curves and asymptotic monodromy of the Hodge bundle along this flow have numerous applications to dynamics and geometry of measured foliations, to billiards ...

The 2015 Oberwolfach meeting “Geometric and Algebraic Combinatorics” was organized by Gil Kalai (Jerusalem), Isabella Novik (Seattle), Francisco Santos (Santander), and Volkmar Welker (Marburg). It covered a wide variety ...

The overall theme of the conference was geometric group theory, interpreted quite broadly. In general, geometric group theory seeks to understand algebraic properties of groups by studying their actions on spaces with ...

The conference was in the area of geometric group theory, the field of mathematics in which one studies infinite groups (finitely generated, or more generally locally compact, countable etc.) via actions on spaces endowed ...

Geometric topology has seen significant advances in the understanding and application of infinite symmetries and of the principles behind them. On the one hand, for advances in (geometric) group theory, tools from algebraic ...

We construct graph-valued analogues of the Kuperberg sl(3) and $G_2$ invariants for virtual knots. The restriction of the sl(3) and $G_2$ invariants for classical knots coincides with the usual Homflypt sl(3) invariant and ...
