GREAT LAKES GEOMETRY CONFERENCE
               SEPTEMBER 15 - 16, 2007

        This coming September 15-16 (Saturday-Sunday) will be the eighth
meeting of the Great Lakes Geometry Conference, held this year at the
University of Minnesota in Minneapolis.  Confirmed speakers so far are:

                   Jun Li, Stanford University
             Ciprian Manolescu, Columbia University
              Davesh Maulik, Princeton University
             Yong-Geun Oh, University of Wisconsin

                       Financial Support

        We have funding from the National Science Foundation  and the
McKnight Foundation to defray workshop expenses for a number of
participants, with preference given to younger scientists (grad students,
postdocs, young faculty or researchers five-ten years after Ph.D.),  
although
all active people are eligible.  Women and minorities are especially
encouraged to apply.

        If you are applying for financial assistance, you should send

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. If you have problems that cannot be resolved at this website, send a message to [log in to unmask]

The Geometry List is sponsored and maintained by the Mathematics Department, The University of Tennessee, Knoxville.
