Analysis, Geometry and Topology of Positive Scalar Curvature Metrics (hybrid meeting)

Abstract

The investigation of Riemannian metrics with lower scalar curvature bounds has been a central topic in differential geometry for decades. It addresses foundational problems, combining ideas and methods from global analysis, geometric topology, metric geometry and general relativity. Seminal contributions by Gromov during the last years have led to a significant increase of activities in the area which have produced a number of impressive results. Our workshop reflected the state of the art of this thriving field of research.
