Special Colloquium

Aissa Wade, Penn State University

"On generalized contact geometry"

Generalized contact manifolds are odd-dimensional analogues of generalized complex manifolds. In this talk, I will review aspects of generalized contact geometry. I also will discuss interactions between generalized contact geometry and other areas of mathematics. Examples of generalized contact manifolds will be provided. If time permits, I’ll explain the integration problem for holomorphic Jacobi manifolds.
