Geometric Analysis at the Freie Universit? Berlin

Lectures and Seminars for Graduate and Undergraduate Students
Winter Semester 2009/2010

IMPRS

The International Max-Planck Research School for Geometric Analysis, Gravitation and String Theory is a joint project of the Max-Planck-Institute for Gravitational Physics (Albert-Einstein-Institute), Freie Universität Berlin (Institute for Mathematics) and Universität Potsdam.
The IMPRS aims to promote research in mathematical physics in an area related in the widest sense to Einstein's theory of general relativity, ranging from pure mathematics (differential geometry and the theory of partial differential equations) to the physics of black holes, gravitational waves and cosmological applications of Einstein's theory and all the way to the most recent efforts to reconcile Einstein's theory with quantum mechanics in the framework of superstring theory and M theory.
Our following seminars are recommended for post-graduates of the IMPRS:
- - Forschungsseminar Geometrische Analysis.
- - Oberseminar Analysis, Geometrie und Physik.

V-19053 Introduction to Ricci-Flow (Huisken)
Inhalt
:
The course studies the Ricci-Flow of Riemannian metrics and establishes necessary techniques on the way to some exemplary results. It is the aim of the course to establish at least some of the buiding blocks necessary for the proof of the Poincare conjecture.
