ICTP Math Lecture Series on Dynamics of the Geodesic Flow on Surfaces Without Conjugate Points - Lecture 1
Zoom event
Lecture 1: Geometry of surfaces without conjugate points
Abstract: This lecture focuses on the general geometric aspect of surfaces without conjugate points. This includes properties of such surfaces and definition of the ideal boundary of the universal cover. We will also define the geodesic flow in this lecture.
Kindly register in advance for these meetings (you only have to register once to attend all events): https://zoom.us/meeting/register/tJ0sd-igqjouE917PnJKgmidMHmi3lDa58se
After registering, you will receive a confirmation email containing information about joining the meeting.
This lecture is to be considered as part of the ICTP Math Associates Seminars Series, being targeted to a general audience.
