Geometric Flows and Relativity

Summer School and Workshop
URUGUAY

Workshop

MARCH 18-20 / PUNTA DEL ESTE

Welcome to the workshop "Geometric Flows and Relativity!" We are happy to host this special international meeting. You can find all the necessary information on this page.

Geometric analysis is a very active and exciting area in pure mathematics today and geometric flows in particular have proved to be a powerful tool in the analysis of a large number of important problems in differential geometry, image processing and mathematical physics, leading to a profound impact on each of these fields. They also arise very naturally in various physical contexts such as thermomechanics, annealing metals, crystal growth, flame propagation, wearing processes and conformal field theory and are therefore of interest to a diverse group of scientists outside of the pure mathematical fields, including applied mathematicians, materials scientists, and theoretical physicists. For all these reasons, the area has gained a large international interest to the extent that by now a large network of specialists are present all over the world.
