DESCRIPTION:Prof. Marco GUALTIERI (University of Toronto)\nI will give a t
 our of the subject of generalized geometry\, with a special focus on gener
 alized complex geometry\, a kind of geometric structure which interpolates
  between complex manifolds and symplectic manifolds.  It has been particu
 larly useful for understanding mysterious geometric structures occurring i
 n the physics of nonlinear sigma models. \nI will also describe how the s
 ubject has inspired advances in Dirac and Poisson geometry. Finally\, I wi
 ll outline a number of new developments and outstanding questions for the 
 future.
