Description

This workshop, organized by the University of São Paulo (USP), will focus on the theory of geometry of Banach spaces, with emphasis on the following directions:

  • linear theory of infinite dimensional spaces and its relations to Ramsey theory;
  • homological theory and set theory;
  • nonlinear theory;
  • operator theory.

The program includes the tutorial Ramsey theory and the geometry of Banach spaces by Pandelis Dodos, which will be accessible to graduate students.

The meeting will take place in Maresias, which is located on the coast of São Paulo state, in Brazil. For further information about the venue, please click here.

Registration is now closed.
