Continued Fractions and Geometry of Lattices

This conference is aiming to bring together researchers interested in geometry of numbers.
Traditionally a subject of number theory, continued fractions appear in dynamical systems,
algebraic geometry, topology, and even celestial mechanics.
It is known that geometry of continued fractions can be described in terms of lattice invariants.
In the framework of this conference we plan to discuss and develop links between
the lattice geometry and geometric aspects of continued fractions.
We will cover several applications to various questions of Diophantine approximation, algebraic number theory, and toric geometry.
This workshop takes place at the
Department of Mathematical Sciences
of the
University of Liverpool.
