Dear Colleagues, 

It is our pleasure to announce the "Workshop on Discrete Shapes”,  which will take 
place at the University of California, Davis, on September 20 - 22, 2019. 

Website: http://discreteshapes.com

The workshop will begin with two days of background and expository talks,
aimed primarily at graduate students and researchers exploring this area.
It will finish with a day of talks on current research. Multiple introductory talks will 
be given by Boris Springborn and David Gu.

An updated list of speakers can be found on the website. 
Registration for the workshop is free and is now open at the website.

Graduate students are particularly encouraged to attend. Support for travel is 
available due to support from the National Science Foundation "FRG Project on 
Geometric and Topological Methods for Analyzing Shapes." Priority for financial 
support will be given to applications received by June 15, 2019. Applications from 
members of underrepresented groups are strongly encouraged.


The organizers: 
Joel Hass   (UC Davis)
Patrice Koehl (UC Davis)
David Glickenstein (Arizona)
Feng Luo (Rutgers)

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]


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