Dear Fellow Geometers,
The deadline for applying to the
2013 Park City Mathematics Institute Summer Program
on Geometric Analysis is on Thursday. I suggest applying before then -
for example, today! This program has parallel programs for researchers,
graduate students, and undergraduates, so please forward this email to
researchers, graduate students, and undergraduates who you think would
be interested.
The Clay Senior Scholars-in-Residence will be
Gerhard Huisken (Albert Einstein Institute, Tuebingen)
Richard Schoen (Stanford)
The graduate summer school lecturers, each of whom will give 4 lectures
to graduate students in addition to participating in the research
program, will be
Michael Eichmair (ETH - Zurich)
Fernando Marques (IMPA, Brazil)
Tristan Riviere (ETH - Zurich)
Igor Rodnianski (MIT)
Peter Topping (Warwick)
Jeff Viaclovsky (Wisconsin)
Ben Weinkove (Northwestern)
Brian White (Stanford)
Steve Zelditch (Northwestern)
These graduate summer school lectures will include topics in geometric
relativity, minimal surfaces, Ricci flow, critical metrics, Kahler
geometry, and spectral geometry, to name a few of the topics already
discussed. Please help us advertise this graduate summer school to
graduate students for us. It should be a great opportunity for graduate
students. Applicants to the graduate program should have completed a
graduate level course in differential geometry. It is also recommended
that they have had some knowledge of partial differential equations.
In addition, there will be two undergraduate-level lecture series on
curvature of space and time, and on geometric differential equations.
These lectures will be given by
Iva Stavrov (Lewis & Clark College, Portland)
Paul T. Allen (Lewis & Clark College, Portland)
Applicants to the undergraduate program should have taken courses in
linear algebra, multivariable calculus, and ordinary differential
equations. Course work in real analysis is strongly recommended.
The undergraduate faculty program will be run by:
Justin Corvino (Lafayette College)
To apply to any of these programs, go to
http://pcmi.ias.edu/program-index
and then click on "Research in Mathematics" if you are a researcher
(postdoc on up), "Graduate Summer School" if you are currently in
graduate school, "Undergraduate Summer School" if you are currently an
undergraduate, or "Undergraduate Faculty Program" if you are
undergraduate faculty. (There are two other parallel programs listed as
well - one for high school teachers and one for mentors of undergraduate
research by minority students - please forward to those who you think
would be interested.) Then follow the instructions about how to apply
to PCMI through MathPrograms.org.
The dates of the program are from
June 30 to July 20, 2013.
This 3 week summer program will support visits of 50 or more faculty and
80 or more graduate students working in geometric analysis and will be
held in parallel with programs for undergraduates, undergraduate
faculty, and secondary school teachers as well.
*** Important Note for graduate students:
For those from MSRI sponsoring institutions: MSRI offers some funding
for graduate students, but this is NOT required.
1. Graduate students who were nominated by their departments and
accepted to PCMI through MSRI must also apply directly to PCMI as
described at the above website.
2. Graduate students from MSRI sponsoring institutions who wish to
attend PCMI can apply directly to PCMI. They do not need to have been
nominated by their department through MSRI or to have been accepted by
MSRI.
We look forward to seeing you there!
Best Regards,
Hubert Bray
on behalf of the organizers: Hubert Bray (Duke), Greg Galloway (Miami),
Rafe Mazzeo (Stanford), and Natasa Sesum (Rutgers)
Additional information: PCMI's graduate, undergraduate and research
programs are generously supported by the National Science Foundation and
the National Security Agency.

This message was sent to you via the Geometry List, which announces conferences in geometry and closely related areas to over 1200 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. If you send a submission from an e-mail address that is not subscribed to the geometry list then you will be sent an e-mail asking for confirmation. 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.
The Geometry List is sponsored and maintained by the Mathematics Department, The University of Tennessee, Knoxville.
