Dear colleagues,

This is an announcement for the workshop "Geometric moduli spaces –
Rigidity, Genericity, Stability“ hosted at ICMS (Edinburgh, UK), May
19-23, 2025.

The workshop’s goal is to explore connections across mathematical
communities that study different geometric moduli spaces. Our workshop
will bring together researchers from positive scalar curvature
geometry, minimal surface theory, harmonic mapping theory, and special
geometries. The study of moduli spaces naturally draws on a confluence
of ideas from neighbouring fields, and in each of these areas there is
a tradition of exploiting rigidity, genericity, and stability
phenomena. Despite many parallel developments, there has been
surprisingly limited interaction and cross-collaboration across these
communities. This workshop aims to foster new connections and to
elucidate future research directions.

Confirmed speakers are:

Simon Brendle (keynote)
Chikako Messe (keynote)
John Pardon (keynote)
Christian Bär
Jonathan Bowden
Sebastian Goette
Sven Hirsch
Marie-Amelie Lawn
Jason Lotay
Thomas Schick
Uwe Semmelmann
Rudolf Zeidler
Aleksander Doan
Marina Logares
Felix Schulze
Ruxandra Moraru
Kai Cieliebak

We plan to have 35 participants. Applications are open through our
website https://www.icms.org.uk/GeometricModuliSpaces until November
29, 2024. The aim is to notify all applicants of the decisions of the
scientific organisers by mid-December.

The ICMS will provide accommodation for all workshop participants.
While we typically cannot cover travel expenses, we do have limited
travel assistance for Early Career Researchers or under special
circumstances.

Best,
Izar Alonso
Bernhard Hanke
Christos Mantoulidis

This message was sent to you via the Geometry List, which announces conferences in geometry and closely related areas to over 2000 mathematicians worldwide. We strongly recommend that announcements are mostly or all in plain text (i.e. without html formatting, which reportedly can create unexpected results on different devices and email systems), with a link provided to a nicely formatted web page.

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. Announcements of individual talks and department seminars will also be rejected; https://mathseminars.org is a good option to announce for such talks. To announce a geometry or closely related conference, send the announcement 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.

You are strongly encouraged to provide essential information such as dates and location near the top of the body of your message, and not require someone to visit your conference link to find it.

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]
