The Poincaré Conjecture: work of Grigory Perelman

Grigory Perelman was awarded a Fields Medal at the Madrid meeting on the International Congress of Mathematicians for "his contributions to geometry and his revolutionary insights into the analytical and geometric structure of the Ricci flow." A number of authors have written detailed expositions of Perelman's work. These papers, as well as other references, are listed here.


Poincaré Conjecture

Poincaré Conjecture

In 1904 the French mathematician Henri Poincaré, asked if the three dimensional sphere is characterized as the unique simply connected three manifold. This question, the Poincaré conjecture, is a special case of Thurston's geometrization conjecture. The latter would give an almost complete understanding of three dimensional manifolds.

 


Workshops at CMI
