Metric Geometry and Geometric Analysis
Date: 11 - 22 July 2022
Location: University of Oxford
Event type: Research School
Organisers: Cornelia Drutu (Oxford) and Panos Papazoglou (Oxford)
The purpose of this MSRI summer school is to introduce graduate students to key mainstream directions in the recent development of geometry, which sprang from Riemannian Geometry in an attempt to use its methods in various contexts of non-smooth geometry. This concerns recent developments in metric generalizations of the theory of nonpositively curved spaces and discretizations of methods in geometry, geometric measure theory and global analysis. The metric geometry perspective gave rise to new results and problems in Riemannian Geometry as well.
All these themes are intertwined and have developed either together or greatly influencing one another. The summer school will introduce some of the latest developments and the remaining open problems in these very modern areas, and will emphasize their synergy.
