Statistical aspects of geodesic flows in nonpositive curvature
20-23 January 2020
Organisers: Yuri Lima, Ian Melbourne
Geodesic flows are among the classical examples in dynamics. Much is known for negatively curved manifolds, but for nonpositive curvature the theory still misses some fundamental pieces. The workshop will gather specialists in a variety of techniques related to the dynamics of geodesic flows.
The workshop will begin Monday lunchtime and end Thursday afternoon.
The titles and abstracts are available here.
