Dear all,
Applications are now open for Kylerec, a student workshop in symplectic geometry. The topic is "Symplectic
Geometry of Cotangent Bundles: The Nearby Lagrangian Conjecture." Graduate students at any stage are
encouraged to apply. Please pass this on to anyone who may be interested.
Topic: The Nearby Lagrangian Conjecture, that every closed exact Lagrangian in a cotangent bundle is
Hamiltonian isotopic to the zero section. Subtopics include the wrapped Fukaya category, local systems in
Floer theory, homotopy theory, and examples via pseudo-holomorphic curves.
Applications due by April 14th: Please apply at https://form.jotform.com/80708231534149. We will provide
financial support for participants.
Format: Kylerec is an intensive week-long workshop run by students and for students. Each participant will
be given reading material in advance to prepare a talk on a topic from a provided list, and mentors will
provide guidance.
Mentors: Roberta Guadagni (U Penn), Thomas Kragh (Uppsala), Kyler Siegel (MIT), and Jingyu Zhao
(Brandeis)
Dates: May 25 - 31, 2018
Location: Leavenworth Lodge, Washington State

Best regards,
Catherine Cannizzo (UC Berkeley), on behalf of the organizing committee:

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.
