DESCRIPTION:Prof. Bruno KLINGLER - Université Paris Diderot (Paris 7)\nTh
 e problem of uniformisation\, as introduced by Poincaré and Riemann in th
 eir study of surfaces\, asks about the relations between the topology of a
  manifold (for example our universe) and its possible geometric structures
 . In this talk I will discuss different aspects of this question\, from to
 pology to arithmetic\, through different examples: affine manifolds\, fund
 amental groups of Kaehler manifolds and functional transcendence propertie
 s of Shimura varieties.
