Building on our long tradition, Eastern Illinois University will host a conference in geometry, dynamics, and topology on March 27 through 29, 2020. This year marks our
30th annual event!
The organizers are
Charles Delman,
Grant Lakeland, and
Andrew Parrish.
Special Lectures by:
Danny Calegari (University of Chicago)
Jonah Gaster (UW Milwaukee)
Neil Hoffman (Oklahoma State)
Allison Miller (Rice)
Margaret Nichols (University of Buffalo)
Jennifer Schultens (UC Davis)
Undergraduate and graduate Students are especially encouraged to submit abstracts. Lodging and travel funding is available.
There will be lecture sessions reserved for undergraduate and graduate speakers, in addition to poster sessions. If you are a graduate student or undergraduate and would like to submit an abstract for consideration, please send it as a PDF attachment to
Undergraduate submissions should be accompanied by a letter of support, sent to the same address, from an advisor or faculty mentor. If you need support, please mention it in the email. Abstract submissions (and letters of support) will be accepted on a
rolling basis until March 1, 2019. Examples of abstracts from last year's talks can be found on the
conference website
here.
The nearest airports are Urbana-Champaign, IL, Bloomington, IL, Indianapolois, IN, and Chicago, IL. Direct Amrak service is available from Urbana-Champaign and Chicago to the nearby town of Mattoon, IL. We will gladly arrange to pick up visitors arriving by train. For those traveling by car, visit the EIU Visitor's Page for directions to campus, maps, and information on parking.
The organizers gratefully acknowledge the financial support of the National Science Foundation

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.
