Geometry Seminar

The geometry seminar is organized by Annina Iseli, Nicolas Monod, Georgios Moschidis, and Marc Troyanov. We host talks in all areas of geometry including:

differential geometry, the geometry of metric spaces, geometric measure theory, fractal geometry, conformal geometry and dynamics, geometric group theory
.

The seminar time in Fall 2024 is Wednesday, 11:15am – 12.15pm in
CH B3 31 (Seminar room on the 3rd floor of the Chemistry building).

Please reach out to either of the organizers if you have a questions about the seminar or if you would like to be considered as a speaker or suggest a speaker.


THE SEMINAR IS PAUSED FROM FALL 2025 UNTIL SUMMER 2026.
