Brussels-London 8 postponed until 12th January

Due to the recent security uncertainty in Brussels, it has been decided to postpone the 8th Brussels-London seminar, which was originally planned for the 1st December. The event will now happen on the 12th January. The theme and speakers remain unchanged: lower bounds on Ricci curvature, with talks by Andrea Mondino, Fabio Cavalletti and Theo Sturm. See the seminar webpage for more information.

Getting here

The department of mathematics is in building NO, on the Campus de la Plaine, of the Université libre de Bruxelles. The geometry group is on the 7th floor. This map shows NO, as well as the metro station Delta and entrance 2, which is right by the stop for the number 71 and 72 buses. The number 95 also stops a short walk from the department. See the STIB website for more information on public transport in Brussels.
