Eastern Hemisphere Colloquium on Geometry and Physics (EHCGP)

The interplay of Geometry and Physics has traditionally been a mutually enriching process for both fields. Recent years have brought new remarkable discoveries and new points of view, connecting deep mathematics with important physical problems.  It is an exciting time. The goal of our Colloquium is to promote the development and the mutual interaction of Geometry and Physics in the Asia-Pacific region.  An international effort, it is conducted online to ensure the widest possible participation. 

This biweekly online colloquium features geometers and physicists presenting current research on a wide range of topics in the interface of the two fields. The talks are aimed at a broad audience. They will take place via Zoom on alternate Wednesdays at 5pm Korea & Japan Standard Time (GMT+9), 4pm China Standard Time (GMT+8), 7pm Australian Eastern Daylight Time (GMT+11).  Each session features a 60 minute talk, followed by 10-15 minutes for questions and discussion. You may join the meeting 15 minutes in advance. Questions and comments may be submitted to the moderator via the chat interface during the talk, or presented in person during the Q&A session. These colloquia will be recorded and will be available (linked from this page) asap after the event. 

As an alternative to Zoom, you may watch recorded lectures at: IBS-CGP
