Fernando C. Marques (IMPA - Rio de Janeiro, Brazil) and André Neves (Imperial College - London, UK) have recently given a proof of the Willmore conjecture. In this workshop these authors will give a detailed survey on their proof.
Additionally, related aspects of the Willmore conjecture will be covered in the meeting.
