The 2016 Redbbud Topology Conference will be held at the  University of
Oklahoma April 1-3, 2016. The Redbud conference is a regional conference in
topology and related areas, with participants from the University of
Arkansas, the University of Oklahoma, Oklahoma State University, and
elsewhere. This year's conference is centered on topics in geometric group
theory and low-dimensional topology. 

Friday April 1 will be a graduate workshop with introductory talks. The main
conference will take place Saturday and Sunday, April 2-3. 

Some funding is available; please register at the conference website by
March 6, 2016 to receive full consideration. Graduate students, recent
Ph.D.s, and mathematicians in underrepresented groups are especially
encouraged to apply. 

Organizers: Noel Brady, Matt Clay, Max Forester, Henry Segerman, Robert
Tang, Jing Tao

Sponsors: NSF and the University of Oklahoma

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.

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.
