Professor Tian is a Simons Professor of Mathematics at MIT. Tian is a leading
figure in differential geometry and symplectic topology. In addition, he is
the winner of Veblen prize and Waterman Award. Among his research areas are:
Kahler geometry and geometry of Calabi-Yau space, Quantum cohomology, Floer
homology and Dynamics of Hamiltonian systems, Yang-Mills equation. In the first
four talks, Professor Tian covered recent important developments in these fields.
The Second four talks were a mini course on Kahler geometry.
