Geometry of Scalar Curvature 2019 

Conference and Summer School 
in Cortona (Italy), July 8-13, 2019 

https://www.uni-math.gwdg.de/schick/Cortona19.html

a classical style conference during the morning sessions, with research talks by 
experts in the area
a working seminar (for younger participants) during the afternoon sessions, 
based on the recent paper: Mikael Gromov, Metric inequalities with scalar 
curvature, GAFA 28 (2018), 645-726. We expect younger participants to 
volunteer to present parts of the article during the conference, the presentation 
to be prepared in advance.
Speakers of the Conference

Bernd Ammann (Regensburg)
Christian Bär (Potsdam)
Boris Botvinnik (University of Oregon)
Michael Eichmair (Wien)
Nadine Grosse (Freiburg)
Chao Li (Princeton)
Yugang Shi (Peking)
Wilderich Tuschmann (Karlsruhe)
Hang Wang (East China Normal University)
Guoliang Yu (Texas AM)
Weiping Zhang (Nankai University)
Misha Gromov will also try to attend.

Organizers: 
Bernhard Hanke (Augsburg), 
Paolo Piazza (Roma), 
Thomas Schick (Göttingen), 
Christina Sormani (City University of New York),
Sponsors

The conference/school is an activity of and sponsored by Scuola Matematica 
Interuniversitaria (SMI) and the Priority Program "Geometry at Infinity" of DFG.
Participation. (Apply before March 15)

All participants must be prepared to lead a discussion about some aspect of 
Gromov’s paper.   To apply for participation, send your vita to Paolo Piazza 
([log in to unmask]) and include a short statement indicating which 
sections of the recent paper: Mikael Gromov, Metric inequalities with scalar 
curvature, GAFA 28 (2018), 645-726 you would be prepared to present.  Due to 
limited capacity, 
participation is by invitation only. We expect particpants to be willing to actively 
contribute to the school part, and we give priority to younger researcher. Local 
expenses will be covered by the school.

This message was sent to you via the Geometry List, which announces conferences in geometry and closely related areas to over 1600 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]
