The 2019 'Australian-German Workshop on Differential Geometry in the Large' represented an extraordinary cross section of topics across differential geometry, geometric analysis and differential topology. The two-week programme featured talks from prominent keynote speakers from across the globe, treating geometric evolution equations, structures on manifolds, non-negative curvature and Alexandrov geometry, and topics in differential topology. A joy to the expert and novice alike, this proceedings volume touches on topics as diverse as Ricci and mean curvature flow, geometric invariant theory, Alexandrov spaces, almost formality, prescribed Ricci curvature, and Kähler and Sasaki geometry.

Reviews & endorsements
'The high-quality surveys and original work in this book give a convenient path to understand some recent exciting developments in global Differential Geometry and Geometric Analysis. This should be of great value to graduate students entering the field, as well as to more experienced researchers looking for an updated perspective on a wide range of topics, ranging from nonnegative curvature and Alexandrov spaces to geometric flows and equivariant geometry.' Renato G. Bettiol, Lehman College, The City University of New York
See more reviews'The volume includes important additions to the literature including new results, new proofs of previous results, and simplified expositions, and also an excellent collection of surveys on recent activity. It is well written and offers a generous overview and invitation to a variety of modern, active topics in differential geometry.' Christopher Seaton, MAA Reviews
