First announcement

Non-linear Analysis,
PDEs and Applications
9th Annual Red Raider Mini-Symposium
October 29 - 31, 2009
Department of Mathematics and Statistics
Texas Tech University

The symposium will emphasize specific problems in non-linear analysis and
partial differential equations, with an additional emphasis on the geometric
theory of integrable systems. Numerical analysis applications will play a
very important role in the conference.

Partial support for participants will be available. Recent recipients of
doctoral degrees, women, and members of traditionally underrepresented
groups are particularly encouraged to apply.

FINANCIAL SUPPORT

The National Science Foundation will provide substantial funding for the
event. The conference proposal submitted by the organizers was recommended
and approved by the NSF in August 2009. The mini-symposium is partly
supported by Prof. Frits Ruymgaart's Paul Whitfield Endowed Horn
Professorship and the Department of Mathematics and Statistics of Texas Tech
University. Horn Professor Ruymgaart generously provides funds from his
endowed professorship to support distinguished speakers. The Department of
Mathematics and Statistics pays other organizational expenses. We will be
able to support most participants, giving priority to early career
researchers, women, minority, and people with disability.
Registration is ongoing, but the available space is filling up fast.
Participants are urged to register and apply for support no later than
September 1, 2009.

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.
