Title: Partially hyperbolic diffeomorphisms in dimension 3.

Abstract: I'll talk about recent progress around the problem of classifying partially hyperbolic diffeomorphisms on 3-manifolds. In particular I'll discuss a special class of such diffeomorphisms called collapsed Anosov flows, how they are conjectured to give all partially hyperbolic diffeomorphisms, and the construction of a new type of such example (in progress, with Federico Salmoiraghi).
