Geometrical Aspects of Mathematical Relativity Masterclass
Copenhagen Centre for Geometry & Topology (GeoTop),
University of Copenhagen
16-20 June 2025
The event will consist of three minicourses by our speakers, highlighting the various geometrical approaches to Einstein's theory of general relativity. In particular, the topics will include singularity theorems, topology of blackholes, constraint equations, connections between scalar curvature and mass of asymptotically flat spacetimes, and more. The target audience will be young researchers and students with a background in differential geometry or working in the field.

The conference/masterclass will take place at the Department of Mathematical Sciences, University of Copenhagen. See detailed instructions on how to reach Copenhagen and the conference venue. More detailed information about the rooms will be posted here as the date of the masterclass is approached.
Tickets and passes for public transportation can be bought at the Copenhagen Airport and every train or metro station. You can find the DSB ticket office on your right-hand side as soon as you come out of the arrival area of the airport. DSB has an agreement with 7-Eleven, so many of their shops double as selling points for public transportation.
A journey planner in English is available.

We kindly ask the participants to arrange their own accommodation.
We recommend Hotel 9 Små Hjem, which is pleasant and inexpensive and offers rooms with a kitchen. Other inexpensive alternatives are CabInn, which has several locations in Copenhagen: the Hotel City (close to Tivoli), Hotel Scandinavia (Frederiksberg, close to the lakes), and Hotel Express (Frederiksberg) are the most convenient locations; the latter two are 2.5-3 km from the math department. Somewhat more expensive – and still recommended – options are Hotel Nora and Ibsen's Hotel.
An additional option is to combine a stay at the CabInn Metro Hotel with a pass for Copenhagen public transportation (efficient and reliable). See information about tickets & prices.
Please register here - no later than 9 June 2025. Some limited funding for participants is available. To apply for funding you must register by 9 March 2025.
