24th ANNUAL GEOMETRY FESTIVAL IN HONOR OF DETLEF GROMOLL
Stony Brook University
Stony Brook, New York
Friday, April 17 - Sunday, April 19, 2009
The 24th Annual Geometry Festival will be held at the Department of
Mathematics at Stony Brook University from Friday, April 17 to Sunday,
April 19, 2009.
This year's festival will be held in honor of
DETLEF GROMOLL
Everyone is invited to the Geometry Festival, and graduate students are
especially encouraged to attend. A continuing grant from the National
Science Foundation makes it possible for us to partially reimburse the
expenses of a large number of graduate students, post-docs and younger
faculty who do not have access to travel funds from other sources.
A substantial portion of this funding can be committed in advance, and
experience shows that additional funds for this purpose are usually
available after conference expenses have been met.
Speakers at this year's festival are:
Jeff Cheeger
Marcos Dajczer
Karsten Grove
Wolfgang Meyer
Gabriel Paternain
Christina Sormani
Guofang Wei
The Geometry Festival website is at
http://www.math.sunysb.edu/geomfest09/
Please visit the web site for the usual conference information, in
particular:
The detailed schedule, when available.
Registration and financial support.
The Saturday night dinner.
Accommodations...we are holding a block of rooms at several area hotels.
A list of participants will be posted approximately one week before
the beginning of the conference.
The web site will remain in place after the Geometry Festival is
over, so that you can refer to it for information about, and
links to, future Festivals.
The organizing committee is Blaine Lawson, Dennis Sullivan, Mike
Anderson, Claude LeBrun, Jason Starr, Denny Hill, Marcus Khuri, Tony
Phillips and Aleksey Zinger.

This message was sent to you via the Geometry List, which announces conferences in geometry and closely related areas to over 1100 mathematicians worldwide.
Before sending an announcement, please carefully read the following. 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 anouncement 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.
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]
The Geometry List is sponsored and maintained by the Mathematics Department, The University of Tennessee, Knoxville.
