Conference: Analytical problems in conformal geometry and applications

Dates and Location

The conference will take place during the week September 17-21, 2018 at the University of Regensburg
Please note that in the week before this workshop, the Workshop: Special Metrics and Symmetries on Complex Manifolds takes place at the same location. Talks will be held in H 31, registration and coffee breaks in M 102.

Aims and Scope

The main subject of the conference is the analysis of conformally invariant partial differential equations such as the Yamabe equation, and related fields in general relativity and geometry, such as Einstein manifolds, positive mass theorem, initial data sets in general relativity or more generally Lorentzian geometry.
