AIM workshop: Metric embeddings

This workshop, sponsored by AIM, the NSF, and the Merkin Center at Caltech, will be devoted to the theory of metric embeddings and its interactions with geometry, analysis, probability, combinatorics, group theory, topology, and theoretical computer science. It will provide the opportunity for researchers to learn about major recent advances in this area. Another goal of the conference is to revive Matoušek’s influential list of "Open Problems on Embeddings of Finite Metric Spaces" (https://kam.mff.cuni.cz/~matousek/metrop.ps), by updating it to reflect progress on existing problems, and adding to it a list of new questions and challenges.
