40th Cascade Topology Seminar

April 21-22, 2007 at the University of British Columbia, Vancouver

The Cascade Topology Seminar is a bi-annual gathering of topologists from 
the US Pacific Northwest and Southwestern Canada.
All talks will be at the Pacific Institute for the Mathematical Sciences
in Room 110 West Mall Annex, 1933 West Mall, Vancouver

Coffee and refreshments will be served at 9am Saturday and Sunday 
preceding
the talks.  On Saturday evening there will be a dinner for participants, 
at a location to be announced.

The Cascade Topology Seminar is supported in part by grants from the US
National Science Foundation, the Natural Sciences and Engineering Research 
Council of Canada and the Pacific Institute for the Mathematical
Sciences, and is a Mathematical Sciences Research Institute MER Network
Conference. The support of these agencies is gratefully acknowledged. The
Seminar has dedicated funding available to support the participation of
students, early career mathematicians, and members of traditionally
underrepresented groups. Members of these aforementioned groups are
especially encouraged to attend and apply for support.

This meeting honors of the retirement of Professors Kee Lam and Denis 
Sjerve.
Organizing committee: Gabriel Indurskis, Dale Rolfsen and Laura Scull

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. If you send a submission from an e-mail address that is not subscribed to the geometry list then you will be sent an e-mail asking for confirmation. This feature is designed to thwart the hundreds of machine-generated spam that are sent to the list and would otherwise have to be manually blocked by the moderator.

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.
