Hyperbolic Manifolds, Their Submanifolds and Fundamental Groups

IMPA, Rio de Janeiro, January 06–10. The conference will be followed by a workshop aimed at graduate students on similar topics on January 13 –17, 2025.

 

The main subject of the conference is about recent developments in hyperbolic geometry and hyperbolic group theory also covering some other closely related areas. The subsequent workshop will provide an in depth introduction to several key topics of the conference.

The conference and workshop is organised in partnership with the Clay Mathematics Institute and the NSF.
