Title: Deforming Geometric Structures in Low Dimensions.
Time: 14:15.
Abstract:
This talk will be an invitation to the study of geometric structures on manifolds through both example and illustration. We will review some fundamental results in the field regarding what types of geometric structures can exist in dimensions two and three, and how they can (or cannot) be deformed. Specifically, we aim to address fundamental questions about projective rigiditiy of hyperbolic 3-manifolds which we will motivate through computer illustration.
