Abstract

Riemannian manifolds with positive scalar curvature play an important role in mathematics and general relativity. Obstruction and existence results are connected to index theory, bordism theory and homotopy theory, using methods from partial differential equations and functional analysis. The workshop led to a lively interaction between mathematicians working in these areas.
