We organize the interdisciplinary mathematical workshop
Our goal is to combine the expertise from these deeply intertwined topics to encourage the development of novel solution strategies that help to solve geometric problems from rigidity theory, as well as to provide meaningful and difficult examples to test existing approaches on.
We plan to have an open problem session to get to know some relevant and tractable problems from the field. A sketch of our scientific vision for the workshop and some exemplary problems can be found here!
Moreover, we plan to have a reception and a poster session on the evening of the 25th of February. If you would like to present a poster there, please let us know in your registration email.
Finally, we prepared a promotional poster for the workshop which you can download here.
Under Abstracts you can find an overview of the Talks.
The registration is now open!
In order to register, please send an email to rigidity_workshop2026 (at) tu-braunschweig.de . The registration deadline is February 09, 2026.
In your email we would like to know whether you are interested in joining our (self-paid) conference dinner and what your dietary restrictions are.
If you would like to present a poster during the reception, please also let us know in your registration email. We will reach out at a later point in time to ask you to submit a title and an abstract.
