Glimpses of Geometry: the Italian schools in the years around 1900

The conference aims to collect contributions to the history of geometry in Italy at the turn of the nineteenth and…

Young Researchers Meeting in Algebra and Geometry 2022

Holomorphic motions of Julia sets: dynamical stability in one and several complex variables – Fabrizio Bianchi (Université de Lille, France)

We discuss the stability of holomorphic dynamical systems under perturbation. In dimension 1, the theory is now classical and is based on…

Geometry and Arithmetic of Moduli Spaces

Further information is available on the event page on the Indico platform.…

The Riemannian Penrose inequality via nonlinear potential theory – Carlo Mantegazza (Università di Napoli)

We will discuss the Riemannian Penrose inequality in an asymptotically flat 3-manifold with nonnegative scalar curvature  and the main points of a new proof by means of a monotonicity formula holding along the level sets of the p-capacitary…

Free groups and Stallings’ folding – Dario Ascari (Oxford University)

L’operazione di folding sui grafi, introdotta da Stallings, è uno strumento fondamentale nello studio di varie proprietà dei gruppi liberi.…

Statistical properties of hyperbolic billiards – Carlangelo Liverani (Università di Roma Tor Vergata)

I will discuss some recent and less recent results concerning the statistical properties of hyperbolic billiards, with particular emphasis on…

Mirror symmetry for generalized Kummer varieties – Justin Sawon (University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, USA)

The generalized Kummer variety $K_n$ of an abelian surface $A$ is the fibre of the natural map $\mathsf{Hilb}^{n+1}A\to \mathsf{Sym}^{n+1}A\to A$. Debarre described a Lagrangian fibration on $K_n$ whose fibres are the kernels of \$\mathsf{Jac}C\to…

Chaos maps and study of the Geminids meteor shower – Ariane Courtot (Observatoire de Paris)

Meteor showers originate from a parent body, an asteroid or a comet. This parent body ejects several meteroids, forming a meteoroid stream, which will then meet the Earth. From Earth, several meteors can then be observed. To prove they form a shower, we then need to prove whether they come from the same source.…
