SCHEDULE
- Saturday, April 25.
Jane Gilman is Professor of Mathematics at Rutgers University in Newark and is currently serving as a Program Officer in the Division of Mathematical Sciences at the National Science Foundation. Dr. Gilman received her Ph.D. from Columbia University and an SB from the University of Chicago. She has held visiting positions at Princeton University, Yale University, the Institute for Advanced Study, the Mathematical Sciences Research Institute, the Mittag-Leffler Institute and the Institut-des-Hautes-Études Scientifique. Dr. Gilman's research centers on Teichmüller theory and Kleinian groups, an area which uses techniques from algebra, hyperbolic geometry and complex analysis.Keynote Speaker: JANE GILMAN, Rutgers University-Newark & the National Science Foundation Title: Continued fractions and the geometry of hyperbolic 3-manifolds
- Sunday, April 26.
