Program and Abstracts of Higher Geometric Structures along the Lower Rhine

Description

This is the first in a series of short workshops jointly organized by the Geometry/Topology groups in Bonn, Nijmegen, and Utrecht, all situated along the Lower Rhine. The focus lies on the development and application of new structures in geometry and topology such as Lie groupoids, differentiable stacks, Lie algebroids, generalized complex geometry, topological quantum field theories, higher categories, homotopy algebraic structures, higher operads, derived categories, and related topics.

Location: Max-Planck-Institut für Mathematik, Vivatsgasse 7, 53111 Bonn

We hope that bringing together specialists in different areas of mathematics would boost interesting discussions and plan to organise a few seminars and mini-courses covering, in particular, the following topics:

basics of model theory, algebraic geometry and model theory, Zariski geometries, Diophantine geometry and model theory, complex geometry and model theory, open problems in number theory and arithmetic geometry.

Those planning to attend include:
