TRAVEL SUPPORT: 

PNGS meetings are supported by funds from the National Science Foundation
and the Pacific Institute for the Mathematical Sciences.  Limited travel
support is available for participants in this meeting.  First priority goes
to graduate students and faculty from the participating universities (Oregon
State, U. of Oregon, Portland State, Stanford, UBC, U. of Utah, U. of
Washington).  If you are affiliated with one of these universities and are
interested in travel support, please contact one of the PNGS organizers at
your university NO LATER THAN OCTOBER 1:

Participants from other universities may be supported if funds are
available.  Travel support is limited to graduate students or faculty
members who do not have NSF grants that provide travel funds.  We are
particularly interested in providing support to young researchers, female
mathematicians, and members of underrepresented groups. 

If you are not affiliated with a participating university and would like to
be considered for travel support, contact Jim Isenberg
<[log in to unmask]> as soon as possible.

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.
