The goal of the course is to introduce some of the recent developments on discrete conformal geometry of polyhedral surfaces. We plan to cover the following topics.- The Andreev-Koebe-Thurston theorem on circle packing polyhedral metrics and Marden-Rodin’s proof- Thurston’s conjecture on the convergence of circle packings to the Riemann mapping and its solution by Rodin-Sullivan- Finite dimensional variational principles associated to polyhedral surfaces- A discrete conformal equivalence of polyhedral surfaces and its relationship to convex polyhedra in hyperbolic 3-space- A discrete uniformization theorem for compact polyhedral surfaces- Convergence of discrete conformality and some open problems
