CR - Structures

Program Organizers: L. Mason (Oxford)
P. Nurowski (Warsaw)
H. Urbantke (local organizer), E-Mail: urbantke@galileo.thp.univie.ac.at

Time: April - July, 1997

Taking up threads already touched upon at a 1994 ESI workshop on Spinors and Twistors, this program is concerned with spaces of null geodesics in 4-dimensional Lorentzian manifolds and their CR structures. Applications to General Relativity as well as to Differential Geometry are considered.

Participants: The participants will be chosen depending on the financial situation from the following list of researchers who have already shown definite interest: R. Penrose, I. Robinson, A.Trautman, E.T. Newman, C. Lebrun, J. Frauendiener, J. Lewandowski, L. Mason, P. Nurowski, G.Sparling, L. Szabados, J. Tafel, P. Tod, N. Woodhouse, R. Bryant, G. Gibbons, R. Low, J. Beem, R. Maszczyk, H. Pedersen, S. Salamon, S. Merkulov, S. Huggett, P Gauduchon, P. Kobak, W. Kopczynski, M. Przanowski, D. Robinson, P. Henkin.

A much more detailed description is available from any of the organizers upon request.
