JULY 29th - AUGUST 2nd 2019, TEL AVIV & THE DEAD SEA

Asymptotic Geometric Analysis 2019

Celebrating Vitali Milman's 80th birthday.





JULY 29 - JULY 31 consists of a research workshop of the Israeli Science foundation.

סדנת מחקר של הקרן הלאומית למדע בנושא אנליזה גיאומטרית אסימפטוטית 2019

Asymptotic Geometric Analysis, at the meeting point of geometry and analysis, is a thriving area with many new results and achievements, influencing not only various areas in mathematics but also computer science, statistical physics and other fields.
The happy occasion of the anniversary of Prof Vitali Milman, one of the founding fathers of the field, gives us the opportunity to review some exciting new developements in the field of asymptotic geometric analysis and some of its closer and farther neighbors. The speakers in this conference are mainly Professor Milman's descendants, together with some of his long-time collaborators and friends.

Our aim is to have an international meeting with many experts who will share ideas and different points of view on geometry and analysis, towards advancing science as a whole, and in particular asymptotic convexity.
