Mini-Workshop: Spaces and Moduli Spaces of Riemannian Metrics

Abstract

The mini-workshop focused on central questions and new results concerning spaces and moduli spaces of Riemannian metrics with lower or upper curvature bounds on open and closed manifolds and, moreover, related themes from Anosov geometry. These are all described in detail below. The event brought together young and senior researchers working about (moduli) spaces of negative and nonnegative sectional, nonnegative Ricci and positive scalar curvature as well as Anosov metrics, and the talks and discussions brought about many new and inspiring research problems to pursue.
