Schedule and detailed schedule available!

Please note that main speakers will have 45min talks and all other speakers 25min talks. Poster sessions will be on Tuesday 26 and Thursday 28 during the coffee breaks.

The conference room has a big blackboard and there is also a projector connected to a computer for slides presentations.

Abstracts can be found here.

This workshop 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.

Registration is now closed.

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

Main speakers are S. A. Argyros, R. Deville, G. Godefroy, P. Hajek, P. Koszmider, V. Pestov, C. Rosendal, G. Schechtman, Th. Schlumprecht and S. Todorcevic.
