Riemannian Geometry Past, Present and Future: an homage to Marcel Berger
Marilyn and James Simons Conference Center
IHES
Marcel Berger greatly contributed to mathematics, through his own publications, for example on holonomy groups, symmetric spaces, curvature pinching and the sphere theorem, spectral geometry or systolic geometry. His influence goes far beyond his research papers. His books and surveys have inspired not only his students, but a much broader audience. Important features of Marcel Berger's mathematical heritage are also his seminar and his influence on the round tables organized by his friend Arthur L. Besse. Marcel Berger's Riemannian geometry seminar held at the Universite Paris VII in the nineteen-seventies and eighties, hosted lectures by both reputable mathematicians and young researchers. For the participants, it was a unique place for lively and informal mathematical discussions and exchanges, as well as inspiration.
AMS Notices is running a memorial article in the December issue, which is freely available online at
