International Symposium on Geometry and Topology
in memory of C.-C. Hsiung

Dates:  May 28-30, 2010
Location: Lehigh University, Bethlehem, PA

This symposium celebrates the life and mathematical legacy of Chuan-Chih 
Hsiung (1916-2009).

The conference will start in the morning of
Friday, May 28 and end in the afternoon of Sunday, May 30.

		Speakers
		
		Werner Ballmann, University of Bonn

In addition, there will be a poster session on Saturday afternoon.  On 
Saturday evening there will be a reception and banquet following the 
poster session.

On-campus housing is available at subsidized rates.

More information will be available as it becomes available at

The conference is supported by the Journal of Differential Geometry, the 
Office of International Affairs of Lehigh University, and the College of 
Arts and Sciences at Lehigh University.  Partial support is anticipated 
from the National Science Foundation.

On-campus housing is available at subsidized rates. We have funds to 
help cover expenses for many of the participants. Priority for support 
will be given to graduate students, recent Ph.Ds, and members of 
underrepresented groups, who are especially encouraged to attend. 
Participants interested in being considered for support should complete 
the request for travel support (available on the website) no later than 
May 1, 2010.

This message was sent to you via the Geometry List, which announces conferences in geometry and closely related areas to over 1200 mathematicians worldwide.

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]

Before sending an announcement, please carefully read the following. Any announcements that are *not* about conferences (e.g. those about jobs, journals, books, etc.) will be rejected by the moderator without comment. 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 announcement 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.

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