Dear colleagues,
On February 2-5, 2020 we are organizing in Les Diablerets (Switzerland)
an event called 'Geometry of Complex Webs'. It intends to bring together people with theoretical and applied backgrounds, and with various interests, from universities, institutes of technology, and universities of applied sciences, around the wide concept of networks and their geometry.
The first part of the event is a Minicourse 'Deep Learning on Graphs and Manifolds' by Michael Bronstein (Imperial College) - it is designed as an introduction to the workshop and does not require any prior knowledge. It will take place on Sunday, Feb 2nd.
The second part of the event is an Exploratory Workshop, from Monday, Feb 3rd to Wednesday, Feb 5th. The nine speakers have been selected because of their transversal profiles and oratory skills. Their fields of expertise range from neurosciences to social sciences, all with a strong geometric flavor.
The first part of each talk will be a survey, in order for everybody to be able to get familiar with various current research directions related to networks.
There will be a Problem Session and a Poster Session in order to stimulate interactions and discussions among participants, as well as a social event (most probably outdoors) devoted to casual networking.
You can find the event's poster in attachment. More information, can be found on https://sites.google.com/view/geocow2020/.
Limited funding is available for PhD students, young researchers, and individuals from under-represented minorities.
We are looking forward to meeting you in Les Diablerets !
The organizers:
Robin Delabays (HES-SO Valais & ETHZ), Matthieu Jacquemet (HES-SO Valais and Uni Fribourg), and Christian Mazza (Uni Fribourg)
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.
