Funded Activity Summary

Discrete Projective Differential Geometry: Comprehensive Theory and Integrable Structure. Differential geometry has been developed over centuries by the most distinguished of mathematicians and its applicability in the mathematical and physical sciences is beyond doubt. However, both natural and man-made structures are inherently discrete. Discrete differential geometry constitutes a relatively new and active research area located between pure and applied mathematics which is more fundamental than differential geometry in that it aims to establish an autonomous discrete analogue from which differential geometry may be derived via an appropriate continuum limit. Even though discrete differential geometry has reached a high degree of sophistication, this project seeks to deliver the first comprehensive theory in this area.
