Description of the Program
This will be a research-intensive program aimed at close collaboration
between the participants. The focus will be on five main topics
:
i) The boundary rigidity problem.
ii) Anisotropic inverse problems, geometric convergence and spectral
geometry.
iii) Index theory and inverse problems; reconstruction of topological
or geometric invariants.
iv) Inverse problems on Lorentzian manifolds.
v) The geometric Whitney problem.
There will be a number of short courses aimed at attracting graduate
students and postdoctoral fellows and at helping define the research
questions to be investigated during the program.
We plan to have regularly scheduled seminars and informal working
groups organized around the main themes of the program.
