Yvonne Choquet-Bruhat has made many deep and lasting contributions to mathematical and physical aspects of General Relativity, starting with her epoch-making 1952 proof of the well-posedness of the Cauchy problem for Einstein’s equations.

On the occasion of her 90th birthday (29 December 2013), recent advances in mathematical relativity will be presented by leading experts.

The invited speakers include:

Demetrios Christodoulou  (ETH, Zuerich)
Piotr Chrusciel  (University of Vienna)
Helmut  Friedrich (AEI, Golm)
Jim Isenberg (University of Oregon)
Sergiu Klainerman (Princeton University)
Vincent Moncrief (Dpt of Physics and Mathematics, Yale University)
Tommaso Ruggeri (University of Bologna)
