1st ANNOUNCEMENT OF BWB 2018 Second Brazilian Workshop in Geometry of Banach Spaces August 13-17, 2018 Maresias, Sao Paulo State, Brazil. (Satellite Conference of the ICM 2018)
We are glad to announce that we are organizing the Second Brazilian Workshop in Geometry of Banach Spaces, as a satellite conference of the ICM 2018 (Rio de Janeiro).
This international conference will take place at the Beach Hotel Maresias, on the coast of Sao Paulo State, in Maresias, in the week August 13-17, 2018. The scientific program will focus on the theory of geometry of Banach spaces, with emphasis on the following directions: large scale geometry of Banach spaces; nonlinear theory; homological theory and set theory.
The webpage of the workshop is under construction and will be available at
