New Methods in Finsler Geometry
21 May 2018 - 25 May 2018Aims
VIDEO: a playlist of the talks is available on Youtube.
The aim of this conference is to put together experts in various fields of mathematics who have given important contributions to Finsler geometry. Young mathematicians interested in this field are encouraged to participate.

The workshop has limited funds to support lodging (and in very exceptional cases, travel) costs of some participants, with priority given to young researchers. When you register, you will have the possibility to suggest a contribution (short talk or poster) and apply for financial support.
Participants who are applying for financial support and/or to give a talk should send their application before February 5, 2018. The application should include: short cv, title and abstract of proposed talk (if a talk is proposed), financial support requested (travel, lodging or both, in the case travel is requested please indicate approximate cost).
All other participants may apply before April 2, 2018.
