Low-Dimensional Manifolds

Abstract

The workshop on Low-Dimensional was organized by M. Boileau (Toulouse), K. Johannson (Frankfurt) and P. Scott (Ann Arbor). The aim was to bring together an international audience in order to expose some of the recent results in Low-Dimensional Topology and related areas. There were altogether 22 talks from a broad range of topics including Heegaard surfaces, the curve complex, hyperbolic manifolds, orbifolds and geometric group theory. There was ample opportunity for ample interaction. The organizers would like to thank the Institute for providing a pleasant and stimulating atmosphere.
