This is the second meeting of the UK Metric Geometry and Analysis Network, a network which brings together working groups from Cardiff University, Durham University, University of Oxford, University of Stirling, the University of Warwick and beyond.
The network focuses mainly on topics in differential geometry and geometric analysis which include:
- Alexandrov spaces
- Manifolds with lower curvature bounds
- RCD spaces
- Lorentzian geometry
- Geometric PDEs
Speakers
- Asma Hassannezhad (Bristol)
- Ana Lucía García Pulido (Stirling)
- Mattia Magnabosco (Oxford)
- Ambrose Yim (Cardiff)

Arrival Information
The nearest train station is Durham (DHM), which is 10-15 minutes from the centre of the city.
The Mathematics and Computer Science building is about 20-25 minutes away from the city centre on foot.
Here's a map showing the Mathematics and Computer Science building to the south of the city centre, and the train station to the north on the west of the river.
On-campus Accommodation
If you are interested in staying in an ensuite room on campus on the night of 29 August (cost £63pp), including breakfast on 30 August, please make a reservation here by Tuesday, 13 August.
