• 3rd cosmic topology workshop: unofficial copy on this page
  • 2nd workshop: Cosmological Topology in Paris, 14 December 1998: AstroPh:0010170
  • 1st cosmic topology workshop: Cleveland, USA 1997

Is this list complete? Should we also include side sessions at big conferences?

mailing list

This list is for research discussion about cosmic topology:
