CONFERENCE

Perspectives in Real Geometry
September 18 – 22, 2017

The main topic of the workshop is modern real algebraic geometry with an emphasis on the interactions with neighboring domains, such as low-dimensional topology, complex algebraic geometry, symplectic geometry and enumerative geometry.

The workshop is dedicated to the memory of Jean-Jacques Risler.
