*Abstract:* One of the greatest achievements on mathematics in the 21st 
century is the proof of the Poincaré’s Conjecture by Grigory Perelman in 
2003. Indeed, Perelman proved a much stronger result, which is the 
Geometrization Conjecture proposed by William Thurston in 1982. In order 
to do so, Perelman used the Ricci flow, a geometric/analytical argument 
proposed by Richard Hamilton. In this course, thought for a student with 
some background in Riemannian geometry, we will present Poincaré’s 
conjecture in the context of the geometrization, explain the 
Geometrization theorem together with the eight Thurston’s geometries and 
give an intuitive overview of the proof of Perelman.

Please note: The CIMPA/ICTP Courses will be recorded and broadcasted.

They will be hybrid courses. All are very welcome to join either online 
or in person. Venues: Euler Lecture Hall and Lecture room B (ICTP 
Leonardo Da Vinci Building), for those wishing to attend in person.
