The Conference CURVE 2015 is located at University Paris 6 (UPMC), bâtiment Esclangon, from June 22nd to June 25th.
Description
This conference focuses on representation varieties of 3-manifold groups, special coordinates from triangulations, and aspects of efficient computation. Talks will focus on general theory of representation varieties, geometric structures, computational techniques, and applications in quantum topology. In addition, there will be a series of mini courses on SnapPy, geometric structures, and on special coordinates from triangulations.
