Over the past forty years, under the guidance of visionary leaders, higher-dimensional geometry has flourished in a number of areas such as the minimal model program, moduli theory, rationally connected varieties, topology of varieties and singularity theory etc. This conference will both celebrate those achievements and explore the field’s current frontiers. It will be held at Princeton University from June 8–12, 2026. It is one of the series of events supported by the Simons Collaboration Grant.
