The 36th meeting of the Texas Geometry and Topology Conference will be
held on October 27-29, 2006 at Rice University.  This meeting will focus
on recents results on low-dimensional Topology and related areas.

Speakers:

Joan Birman (Columbia University)
Richard Hain (Duke University)
Ko Honda (University of Southern California)
Elisenda Grigsby (Columbia University)
Feng Luo (Rutgers University)
Eleny Ionel (Stanford University)
Mikhail Khovanov (Columbia University)
Daniel Ruberman (Brandeis University)

The Conference is supported by the National Science Foundation and Rice
University. Everyone is welcome. There are no registration fees.  However,
please  register by October 13th (preferably earlier) if you plan to
attend so that we can estimate the number of attendees.

The Texas Geometry and Topology Conference is committed to the strengthening
and enrichment of the mathematics personnel base. We will be able to offer
some support for expenses. To apply for financial aid, please fill out the
registration. Note that in order to receive support, you must register by
October 2nd.  Graduate students, junior faculty, women, minorities, and
persons with disabilities are especially encouraged to participate and to

This message was sent to you via the Geometry List, which announces conferences in geometry and closely related areas to over 1100 mathematicians worldwide.

Before sending an announcement, please carefully read the following. To announce a geometry or closely related conference, send the announcement (including a conference web site if possible) to [log in to unmask] The moderator cannot edit your message; list members will receive the announcement as an e-mail from you EXACTLY as you submitted it. For example, if your submission starts with "Please post this on the geometry list" then your conference anouncement will also begin with that statement.  In order to keep down the volume of e-mail, only TWO announcements per conference
will be approved by the moderator. The "subject" of your message should include the name of the conference and the number (first or second) of the announcement, e.g. Gauss Memorial Lectures in Geometry: Second Announcement. Please check that your announcement (especially the website) is correct! Corrections will be approved only in the most critical situations, e.g. if corrected information is not available on the website.

At http://listserv.utk.edu/archives/geometry.html there are many functions available, including checking the archives since November 2005, changing your e-mail address or preferences, and joining/leaving the list.
