Manifolds and groups in Bologna, II

Workshop

  • Date: from 17 April 2024 to 19 April 2024

  • Event location: Math Department - Room "Cremona" IV floor

  • Access Details: Free admission subject to enrolment

The aim of this workshop is to bring together young researchers working in low-dimensional topology and geometric group theory in a broad sense. The event consists of main lectures and shorter talks in order to give the opportunity to young researchers to present their own research.
