Courses and Timetable

Topics

The StAR School is a summer school on modern research in mathematical general relativity aimed at Ph.D. students but applications are welcome from postdocs and advanced Master's students. The summer school will have lectures and problem sessions to guide students through a selection of topics essential to research in mathematical general relativity. These will be the following:

Grigorios Fournodavlos: 3+1 gauges for the Einstein equations, local well-posedness and further applications
James Lucietti: Black hole uniqueness theorems.
Zhongkai Tao: Integral formulas for underdetermined PDE systems and flexibility of initial data in general relativity
Rita Teixeira da Costa : Waves on black holes

Sample Timetable

Arrival is expected in the afternoon Sunday the 5th of July, dinner will be provided.

Lectures will start Monday the 6th of July.

We anticipate having 6 hours for each of the above topics with at least 1 hour of problem sessions.

There will be an opportunity to volunteer to give a lightning talk on your research in one of the evenings.

There will be an excursion on the Wednesday afternoon.

Departure is expected on Friday the 10th of July in the afternoon.
