• 1732 - Analysis, Geometry and Topology of Positive Scalar Curvature Metrics 

      [OWR-2017-36] Workshop Report 2017,36 (2017) - (06 Aug - 12 Aug 2017)
      Riemannian manifolds with positive scalar curvature play an important role in mathematics and general relativity. Obstruction and existence results are connected to index theory, bordism theory and homotopy theory, using ...
    • 1726 - Geometric Structures in Group Theory 

      [OWR-2017-30] Workshop Report 2017,30 (2017) - (25 Jun - 01 Jul 2017)
      Geometric group theory has natural connections and rich interfaces with many of the other major fields of modern mathematics. The basic motif of the field is the construction and exploration of actions by infinite groups ...
    • 1734 - Low-dimensional Topology and Number Theory 

      [OWR-2017-38] Workshop Report 2017,38 (2017) - (20 Aug - 26 Aug 2017)
      The workshop brought together topologists and number theorists with the intent of exploring the many tantalizing connections between these areas.
    • 1743c - Mini-Workshop: Interactions between Low-dimensional Topology and Complex Algebraic Geometry 

      [OWR-2017-50] Workshop Report 2017,50 (2017) - (22 Oct - 28 Oct 2017)
      Recent developments exhibit a strong connection between low-dimensional topology and complex algebraic geometry. A common theme is provided by the Alexander polynomial and its many avatars. The mini-Workshop brought together ...
