Virtual Workshop on Ricci and Scalar Curvature
in honor of Misha Gromov's 75th Birthday
  • synthetic notions of Ricci and scalar curvature;
  • geometric properties of Riemannian manifolds with bounds on their Ricci and scalar curvature;
  • low regularity notions of Ricci and scalar curvature;
  • almost rigidity and stability of rigidity theorems involving Ricci and scalar curvature;
  • convergence of sequences of Riemannian manifolds with bounds on their Ricci or scalar curvature and the properties of their limit spaces
We invite submissions of videos and/or papers to this virtual conference on these and related topics.  Selected videos will be included in our virtual workshop and selected articles will be published in Special Issue of SIGMA on Scalar and Ricci Curvature in honor of Misha Gromov’s 75th Birthday edited by Lan-Hsuan Huang, Blaine Lawson, Pengzi Miao, Paolo Piazza, Richard Schoen, Christina Sormani, and Guofang Wei.  Deadline August 1, 2020 but please submit early as we already have many promised contributors and everything must be refereed.

=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- 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]
