Dear colleagues,
We would like to advertise the following
School on Low-Dimensional Geometry and Topology: Discrete and Algorithmic Aspects
Institut Henri Poincaré, Paris
June 18-22, 2018
http://geomschool2018.univ-mlv.fr/
This one-week school, held at the Institut Henri Poincaré in the heart of Paris, is devoted to low-dimensional geometry and topology, from both the viewpoints of mathematicians and computer scientists. It is aimed at graduate students and researchers in mathematics and computer science interested in geometric or topological aspects. This includes, not exhaustively, mathematicians working in differential, Riemannian, or topological geometry; and computer scientists working in computational geometry or topology. The goal is to foster interaction between these communities.
The principal speakers (each giving one 90-minute lecture per day):
* Jeff Erickson (University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, USA):
Two-dimensional computational topology (tentative)
* Joel Hass (University of California at Davis, USA):
Algorithms and complexity in the theory of knots and manifolds
Additional speakers (giving a presentation):
* Bruno Benedetti (University of Miami, USA)
* Benjamin Burton (University of Queensland, Australia)
* Erin Chambers (Saint Louis University, USA)
* Gregory Chambers (Rice University, USA)
* Moira Chas (Stony Brooke University, USA)
* Francis Lazarus (CNRS, Gipsa-Lab, France)
* Hugo Parlier (University of Luxembourg)
* Saul Schleimer (University of Warwick, UK)
* Eric Sedgwick (DePaul University, USA)
* Uli Wagner (IST Austria)
* Yusu Wang (Ohio State University, USA)
Registration is free but mandatory, before March 15, 2018. We expect to be able to provide accommodation for some students and, depending on availability, post-doctoral researchers; see the webpage for more details when they become available.
Organizing committee:
* Éric Colin de Verdière (CNRS, LIGM, Université Paris-Est Marne-la-Vallée)
* Xavier Goaoc (LIGM, Université Paris-Est Marne-la-Vallée)
* Laurent Hauswirth (LAMA, Université Paris-Est Marne-la-Vallée)
* Alfredo Hubard (LIGM, Université Paris-Est Marne-la-Vallée)
* Stéphane Sabourau (LAMA, Université Paris-Est Créteil)
This event is supported by Bézout Labex and the Institut Henri Poincaré.

This message was sent to you via the Geometry List, which announces conferences in geometry and closely related areas to almost 1500 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.
