This is the second announcement for the conference "Perspectives in
Geometry", to be held in Florence, Italy, on 26-28 January 2017.

The conference, originally intended to celebrate the 65th birthday of our
friend Paolo de Bartolomeis, will instead be held in his memory, since he
sadly passed away on 29 November 2016.

The scientific aim of the conference will be to present a panoramic vision
of some of the main topics of today's Geometry (including Differential
Geometry, Algebraic Geometry, Geometric Analysis and Several Complex Variables).
The current list of confirmed speakers includes:

Dan Burns (University of Michigan)
Fabrizio Catanese (University of Bayreuth)
Jean-Pierre Demailly (University of Grenoble)
Yasha Eliashberg (Stanford University)
Paul Gauduchon (Ecole Polytechnique)
Andrei Iordan (Université Pierre et Marie Curie)
Luca Migliorini (Univ. of Bologna)
Gang Tian (Princeton University and Peking University)
Giuseppe Tomassini (Scuola Normale Superiore)

Each speaker will choose a broad topic and deliver a set of one or two 45
minute lectures, presenting his view on where the field lies today and which
are the main open questions.

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]
