We are pleased to announce the Moab Topology Conference, to be held May 9-11, 
2019 in Moab, Utah. 

The Moab Topology Conference 2019 will feature low-dimensional topology, 
including plenary talks by leading researchers in 3- and 4-manifolds, knot theory, 
categorification, and related areas.  The plenary talks will be given by:

John Etnyre, Georgia Institute of Technology
Slava Krushkal, University of Virginia
Aaron Lauda,  University of Southern California

There will also be shorter talks drawn from submitted abstracts.  This conference is 
supported by the NSF.  We will be able to offer some funding for domestic travel 
and accommodation to senior graduate students and early career researchers.  

Graduate students are especially encouraged to apply and attend!  We would 
appreciate your forwarding this information to those who might be interested.  
Please note that the deadline to apply for funding and submit an abstract is 
February 25, 2019.  

We are committed to strengthening mathematics at all levels, and encourage 
graduate students, junior faculty, women, and minorities to participate, and to 
submit abstracts.

For more information, to register for the conference, and to apply for funding, 
please visit http://www.math.usu.edu/~geer/conference2019/

Moab is an incredibly beautiful place surrounded by desert, red rocks, and 
mountains.  There are several national parks in the area including Arches and 
Canyonlands.


Organizers:

Nathan Geer, Utah State University
Mark Hughes, Brigham Young University

This message was sent to you via the Geometry List, which announces conferences in geometry and closely related areas to over 1600 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. After submitting an announcement you may receive a message asking you to confirm your submission. 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. If you do not see your announcement within 48 hours, please check the archives to see whether it was actually posted (i.e. you somehow missed seeing the post or are not subscribed with your current email address). If the announcement is not in the archive, search for a confirmation message that you may have missed (from listserv.utk.edu). If none of this solves the mystery, send a message to [log in to unmask]
