Embedding questions in Symplectic Geometry

Colloquium presented by Dusa McDuff

There has been a lot of recent progress in understanding when one open set embeds symplectically in another. This talk will describe some of the recent results and open problems. It should be accessible to those who know little or no symplectic geometry. Le colloque sera suivi d'une réception en l'honneur de M. Peter Russell, directeur du CRM,dont le mandat se terminera le 31 mai 2011. The colloquium will be followed by a reception to honour Dr. Peter Russell, whose term as CRM director will end on May 31, 2011.
