Geometry and TACoS

The idea of “Geometry & TACoS” is to have regular mathematical conferences on specific themes, related, in a broad sense, to Geometry and Topology of (Almost) Complex Structures.

We are revamping the format of “Geometry & TACos” to be an online conference with synchronous talks held on Zoom!  This format will be effective starting with the eighth session on “Complex Geometric Flows”. There will be six speakers each giving a 45-minute talk. The conference will span three days with two talks per day. Following each talk, there will be a 15 minute Q&A.

Talks will be recorded and posted to the Youtube channel.
