"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.

The University of Waterloo acknowledges that much of our work takes place on the traditional territory of the Neutral, Anishinaabeg and Haudenosaunee peoples. Our main campus is situated on the Haldimand Tract, the land granted to the Six Nations that includes six miles on each side of the Grand River. Our active work toward reconciliation takes place across our campuses through research, learning, teaching, and community building, and is co-ordinated within our Office of Indigenous Relations.
