LAMINATIONS AND FOLIATIONS in dynamics, geometry and topology

May 18-24, 1998

Stony Brook, NY, USA

Mathematics

Host: SUNY
Homepage: http://www.math.sunysb.edu/solenoid/
Email: solenoid@math.sunysb.edu

Organizers: Eliashberg, Ghys, Lyubich, Milnor, Minsky, Sullivan, Phillips, Verjovsky

Description:
We plan to bring together people looking at laminations and foliations from different points of view in the hope that it will create fruitful interactions between somewhat separated fields. The conference will include both introductory mini-courses and research lectures.

Themes to be included: Riemann surface and hyperbolic laminations, and their relation to conformal dynamics. Laminations and currents in higher dimensional holomorphic dynamics. Analytic differential equations. Groupoids and non-commutative geometry Geodesic laminations on surfaces; laminations and foliations in 3D manifolds. Foliations, symplectic and contact structures.

Speakers: Bedford, Bonahon, Brunella, Camacho, Connes, Eliashberg, Fenley, Fornaess, Gabai, Ghys, Gomez-Mont, Hatcher, Hubbard, Ilyashenko, Kaimanovich, Ledrappier, Mosher, Sad, Sibony, Smillie, Sullivan, Verjovsky
