Descripción de la actividad

Convex Geometry is the geometry of convex sets in Euclidean space. It plays a central role in several fields in Mathematics, pure and applied. This summer School aims to showcase cutting-edge results in Convex Geometry that have been obtained using techniques from Harmonic Analysis and PDEs, within the framework of Differential Geometry. The courses will be aimed at starting researchers by providing a comprehensive introduction to the topics,  and also to established researchers from one of the areas who want to learn techniques from a different area.

The summer school will consist of three mini-courses.  The main speakers are key players in the most important recent developments in modern convex geometry:

-Semyon Alesker (Tel Aviv University, Israel): Valuations and convex geometry.

-Alina Stancu (Concordia University, Montreal, Canada): Applications of partial differential equations to convex geometry.

-Vladyslav Yaskin (University of Alberta, Edmonton, Canada):  Harmonic Analysis Methods in Geometric Tomography.

Additional 1 hour lectures will be delivered by experts on the topic, both Spanish and international. We aim to enhance and promote the research activity in these topics, by facilitating discussions and joint work among the participants.
