| Title | Ricci solitons in contact geometry |
| Speaker | Ramesh Sharma (Univ. New Haven) |
| URL | http://www.math.dartmouth.edu/~gts/ |
| Detail | This talk would cover the contact Riemannian metrics (especially, the standard contact metrics on the unit tangent bundle of a Riemannian manifold) that are Ricci solitons. It would also indicate how a cosmological model can be evolved through a Ricci soliton. |
