Lehigh University Geometry and Topology Conference

Dates: June 8-10, 2006

This conference is held in honor of the 90th birthday of Professor Chuan-Chih
Hsiung, emeritus Professor of Mathematics at Lehigh University and founder of
the Journal of Differential Geometry. In addition, we will celebrate the 40th
anniversary of the Journal as well.

The conference will start at 9:00 am on Thursday, June 8. The first talk will
begin at 11:00 Thursday, and the last talk will end before 5:00 Saturday,
June 10.

Principal Speakers

      Fedor Bogomolov,  Courant Institute
      Ralph Cohen,      Stanford University
      Lisa Jeffrey,     University of Toronto
      Frank Morgan,     Williams College
      Dennis Sullivan,  SUNY Stony Brook

In addition, there will be parallel sessions of 40-minute contributed talks,
divided roughly into Differential and Complex Geometry, Geometric Analysis,
Algebraic Topology, and Geometric Topology.

Those interested in speaking should submit an abstract of their talk by May
1, 2006.

The conference is supported by Lehigh University, and the NSF. Limited travel
support (up to $300) is available for recent PhD's, current graduate students
and members of underrepresented groups. Participants interested in being
considered for this support should complete the request for travel support
form no later than May 15, 2006.

There is a $35 registration fee.  On-campus dormitory housing will be

becomes available. Please check back from time to time. You can register
for the conference on the Web form there, or mail in the accompanying
