Dear all,
we  are organizing the conference

"Asymptotic geometry of groups and spaces" 
from February 20 -23, 2017 
in Heidelberg, Germany.

Please, see the web page of the conference for more details
https://www.mathi.uni-heidelberg.de/~alessandrini/Asymptotic/

We will bring together more experienced and young researchers, who study
asymptotic properties of groups and spaces form different angles. The
schedule will leave ample room for discussion and scientific interaction.

The confirmed speakers for the moment are

Tsachik Gelander (Weizmann Institute of Science, Rehovot)
Olivier Guichard (Université de Strasbourg)
Fanny Kassel (CNRS)
Francois Labourie (Université de Nice Sophia Antipolis)
Jean Lecureux (Université Paris-Sud 11)
Arielle Leitner (Technion, Haifa)
Anne Parreau (Université Grenoble Alpes)
Frederic Paulin (Université Paris-Sud 11)
Joan Porti (Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona)
Jean Raimbault (Université de Toulouse)
Nicolas Tholozan (CNRS)
Gabriela Weitze-Schmithüsen (Universität des Saarlandes) 


This will be the concluding conference of the Focus Semester of the
Mathematics Center Heidelberg (MATCH) on “Groups and Geometries” and the
first conference we are organizing within the new joint research training
group “Asymptotic invariants and limits of groups and spaces” (KIT and
Heidelberg University), which started on October 1st, 2016. The conference
will take place at the Internationales Wissenschaftsforum Heidelberg (IWH),
a small conference center located downtown Heidelberg.

With best regards,
The organizers

Daniele Alessandrini
Maria Beatrice Pozzetti
Roman Sauer
Petra Schwer
Anna Wienhard

This message was sent to you via the Geometry List, which announces conferences in geometry and closely related areas to almost 1500 mathematicians worldwide.

At http://listserv.utk.edu/archives/geometry.html there are many functions available, including checking the archives since November 2005, changing your e-mail address or preferences, and joining/leaving the list. If you have problems that cannot be resolved at this website, send a message to [log in to unmask]

Before sending an announcement, please carefully read the following. Any announcements that are *not* about conferences (e.g. those about jobs, journals, books, etc.) will be rejected by the moderator without comment. To announce a geometry or closely related conference, send the announcement (including a conference web site if possible) to [log in to unmask] The moderator cannot edit your message; list members will receive the announcement as an e-mail from you EXACTLY as you submitted it. For example, if your submission starts with "Please post this on the geometry list" then your conference announcement will also begin with that statement. In order to keep down the volume of e-mail, only TWO announcements per conference will be approved by the moderator. The "subject" of your message should include the name of the conference and the number (first or second) of the announcement, e.g. Gauss Memorial Lectures in Geometry: Second Announcement. Please check that your announcement (especially the website) is correct. Corrections will be approved only in the most critical situations, e.g. if corrected information is not available on the website. After submitting an announcement you may receive a message asking you to confirm your submission. This feature is designed to thwart the hundreds of machine-generated spam that are sent to the list and would otherwise have to be manually blocked by the moderator. If you do not see your announcement within 48 hours, please check the archives to see whether it was actually posted (i.e. you somehow missed seeing the post or are not subscribed with your current email address). If the announcement is not in the archive, search for a confirmation message that you may have missed (from listserv.utk.edu). If none of this solves the mystery, send a message to [log in to unmask]


The Geometry List is sponsored and maintained by the Mathematics Department, The University of Tennessee, Knoxville.
