Invitations to Mathematics - Jean Lafont
Title: Introduction to negative curvature
Speaker: Jean Lafont
Abstract: I'll provide a gentle introduction to the topic of negative curvature, starting with the motivating example of hyperbolic space. I'll also discuss some constructions of hyperbolic manifolds. Time permitting, I'll explain how the theory and examples suggest various generalizations, leading to a wide range of related topics.
Note: This is part of the Invitations to Mathematics lecture series given each year in Autumn Semester. Pre-candidacy PhD students can sign up for this lecture series by registering for one or two credit hours of Math 6193 with Professor Nimish Shah.
