Liviu Ornea to talk in the geometry seminar, 12/10/2015

The next talk in the geometry seminar will be given by Liviu Ornea from the University of Bucharest. The talk will be at 2pm, on Monday, 12th October, in the Salle de Profs (9th floor of building NO). Please note the change of day. Liviu’s title is CR manifolds in locally conformally Kähler geometry, and his abstract follows.

I shall describe a connection between locally conformally Kahler manifolds with potential and pseudoconvex CR-manifolds.

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.
