Effective methods in resolution of singularities are becoming central to a modern generation of problems from analysis and geometry, for example, spectral theory and Hodge theorem for algebraic varities, stability of oscillating integrals, existence of Kähler-Einstein metrics, sharp forms of Moser-Trudinger inequalities. The diversity of the problems and their very different origins and aims have led to a lack of communication among researchers on these and related topics. This program, bringing together leading experts in resolution of singularities, complex differential geometry, and real analysis and partial differential equations, may have ground-breaking impact.
