DESCRIPTION:Speakers: Anton Alexeev (Universite de Geneve (CH))\, Derek Kr
 epski (University of Manitoba)\, Henrique Burstzyn (IMPA)\, Yiannis Loizid
 es (George Mason University)\n\nMany moduli spaces of interest in mathemat
 ics and theoretical physics carry rich geometric structures\, including sy
 mplectic or Poisson structures and their relatives. Quantization of these 
 moduli spaces links to several different areas of mathematics and theoreti
 cal physics\, giving rise to far-reaching implications. The conference wil
 l showcase recent advances in the following areas\, and provide opportunit
 ies for enriching discussions at their frontiers:\n• Moduli spaces of fl
 at connections on surfaces\, Quasi-Hamiltonian G-spaces\;• Geometric str
 uctures on Lie groupoids\, Poisson/Dirac geometry\;• Geometric quantizat
 ion\, gerbes\, twisted K-theory\, loop groups\;• Hamiltonian Virasoro sp
 aces and Teichm¨uller theory.\nA cross-cutting theme of the meeting is th
 e interplay of higher geometric structures\, moduli spaces of geometric st
 ructures on surfaces\, and their quantizations. The conference also serves
  as an opportunity to celebrate Eckhard Meinrenken’s 60th birthday\, and
  contemplate the wide ranging impacts of his research in mathematics over 
 the past three decades. The event will bring together outstanding research
 ers working at the cutting edge in these areas. There will be talks by jun
 ior and senior researchers on recent advances\, and survey talks by senior
  researchers highlighting open questions to inspire and fuel further devel
 opments.\n\nhttps://indico.global/event/13800/
