Dg-manifolds in Geometry and Physics

Organisers : Frédéric Hélein (Paris), Grégory Ginot (Paris), Camille Laurent-Gengoux (Lorraine)
 

This conference intends to bring together mathematicians that solve questions in differential geometry or theoretical physics using dg-manifolds (or related objects) as a tool. Dg-manifolds, also called Q-manifolds, or Lie infinity-algebroids, have been proved to be both powerful and efficient: we think that the time has come to recapitulate the miscellaneous applications of the concept that have appeard in the previous ten years.  

Confirmed speakers include:

• Christian Blohmann (Bonn)
• Adrien Brochier (Paris)
• Ezra Getzler (Northwestern)
