TETRAHEDRAL GEOMETRY/TOPOLOGY SEMINAR

         ANNOUNCEMENT

DATE:              Friday, February 6, 2009             

LOCATION:    Hempfield High School, Room 213 (directions at http://www.millersville.edu/~tgts/)                

                           followed by dinner at a place to be determined.

4:30 TALK:  Ralph Gomez, Swarthmore College

                           “A Tour of Sasakian Geometry”

Abstract: Sasakian geometry is often described as an odd-dimensional cousin of

   Kahler geometry. We will take a casual tour through Sasakian geometry and discuss

   how this framework can be used to produce numerous examples of odd-dimensional

   Einstein manifolds, which are manifolds that admit Riemannian metrics satisfying a

   specially chosen curvature condition.

     EVERYONE WELCOME

       PLEASE FORWARD THIS ANNOUNCEMENT TO ANYONE INTERESTED

           The Tetrahedral Geometry/Topology Seminar is sponsored jointly by

Elizabethtown College, Franklin & Marshall College, Lebanon Valley College and Millersville University.
