Topics will include moduli compactifications and multiscale structures appearing in metric degenerat ions\, with emphasis on recent developments at the interface of geometric analysis and algebraic geometry.Tuesday 2 June\n • 10:00 - 12:00 Lorenzo Foscolo (Sapienza): Constructions of special holonomy manifolds from 4 to higher dimensions (Part II)\n • 14:00 - 15:00 Cristiano Spotti (Aarhus Univ.): Degenerations of canonical metrics and algebraic geometry (Part II )Thursday 4 June (Venue: IFPU/IGAP Building\, Room 205)\n • 15:00 - 16:0 0 Thomas Jiang (Duke Univ.): TBAAbstract: TBA\n • 16:30 - 17:30 Jacob St ein (Campinas Univ.): TBAAbstract:  TBAFriday 5 June\n • 11:00 - 12:30 Bobby Acharya (ICTP): Ricci flat manifolds\, Particle Physics and Gravity\ n • 14:00 - 15:30 Closing Session (Venue: Stasi Seminar Room\, ICTP Leon ardo Building)\n\n//indico.ictp.it/event/11362/ LOCATION:ICTP Leonardo Building - Euler Lecture Hall URL://indico.ictp.it/event/11362/ END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
