AbstractWe consider smooth Riemannian surfaces whose curvature K satisfies the eguationAlogK-c=aK+b away from points where K=c for some (a,b, c) eIR3, which we callgeneralized Ricci surfaces. This equation generalize a result of Ricci, which provides a necessaryand sufficient condition for the surface to be (locally) minimally and isometrically immersed inEuclidean 3-space. in the first part of...
AbstractI will explain mirror symmetry for Fano varieties, and an approach to the classification of Fano varieties based on mirror symmetry.SpeakerProfessor Alessio Corti holds a Chair in Pure Mathematics at Imperial College London. His main areas of interest lie in algebraic geometry, particularly higher dimesional birational geometry, minimal model theory, Fano varieties.Professor Alessio Cor...
