Dear Colleague,
You are cordially invited to attend the 48th annual Cornell Topology
Festival, which will be held Friday-Monday, May 7-10, 2010. The program
will feature several one-hour talks, a table for preprints, and much
opportunity for conversation. Two introductory workshops will focus on
the area of applications of profinite groups. The invited speakers will
also participate in a panel discussion on recent developments in
topology and related fields. Social activities will include an opening
reception, a banquet, two working luncheons, and a picnic.
Financial support is available and may be requested by filling in the
registration form at
http://www.math.cornell.edu/napp/top/login10.php
Requests are due by April 2. Young researchers and members of
underrepresented groups are especially encouraged to apply.
Speakers will include:
* Miklos Abert, University of Chicago
* Indira Chatterji, Ohio State University and Université d'Orléans
* Karsten Grove, University of Notre Dame
* Jeremy Kahn, Stony Brook University
* Dan Margalit, Tufts University
* Nikolay Nikolov, Imperial College London
* Doug Ravenel, University of Rochester
* Ed Swartz, Cornell University
* Dani Wise, McGill University
* Robert Young, IHES
In addition, the festival will begin with a special lecture by Eugene
Dynkin, in honor of his upcoming retirement. Although not directly
related to topology, the lecture will be of interest to most participants.
Further information and a registration form can be found on the festival
web page:

Please register if you plan to attend -- by April 2nd if you are
requesting support, by April 23rd if you plan to attend the banquet.

This message was sent to you via the Geometry List, which announces conferences in geometry and closely related areas to over 1200 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. 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.
The Geometry List is sponsored and maintained by the Mathematics Department, The University of Tennessee, Knoxville.
