Recent progress in the geometry of Poincaré-Einstein metrics

Abstract
In this talk, we will exhibit recent developments in studying the geometry of Einstein metrics with negative scalar curvature, called Poincaré-Einstein metrics, via the tool of conformal compactification. We will introduce some new formulations of rigidity, regularity, as well as quantitative geometry in this direction. An interesting phenomenon is that these results suggest a certain resonance between the structures of Ricci flat manifolds and Poincaré-Einstein manifolds.
