Non-Smooth Geometry

Month: April 2013

Date: April 29--May 3

Name: Non-Smooth Geometry

Location: Institute for Pure and Applied Mathematics (IPAM), UCLA, Los Angeles, California.

Description

Many contemporary investigations in geometry lead to analytic questions on non-smooth and fractal spaces different from the usual Euclidean setting. In this workshop we intend to pursue some of these directions with an emphasis on more geometric aspects (another workshop in this program on "Analysis on Metric Spaces" has a more analytic bias). Topics will include analytic problems that arise in geometric group theory or for expanding dynamical systems, differentiability properties of Lipschitz functions, currents and isoperimetric problems on metric spaces, quasiconformal geometry of fractals, and sub-Riemannian geometry.
