Revision as of 12:34, 19 January 2011
An Atlas writing workshop is a sort of hackathon for topologists.
Over a period of usually two days, we introduce the Atlas to participants and then sit together to discuss manifolds and related topics and to write on the Atlas.
Below is a summary of the writing workshops to date:
1 Bonn December 2010
From December 13th - 15th, there was a focussed meeting at the HIM.
Participants:
Pages worked on during or following the meeting:
- Axiomatization of the manifold concept, Bott periodicity and exotic spheres: some comments, Selected publications in manifold theory, Lens spaces: a history, Poincaré’s homology sphere, Projective plane: a history and Poincaré's cube manifolds.
At the end of the meeting, Jeremy Gray joined the editorial board.
2 Będlewo November 2010
The second Atlas writers workshop took place in Będlewo: the local organiser were Tadeusz Januszkiewicz and Krzysztof Pawałowski.
