The 45th Meeting of the Texas Geometry and Topology Conference (TGTC) will be held at Texas Tech University, in Lubbock, Texas, on February 18-20, 2011. The confirmed speakers are: Anthony Bloch (University of Michigan) Annalisa Calini (College of Charleston) Jeanne Clelland (University of Colorado at Boulder) Boris Coskunuzer (Koc University, Turkey) Shantanu Dave (University of Vienna, Austria) Dragos Oprea (University of California San Diego) Richard Palais (University of California at Irvine) Alexander Voronov (University of Minnesota) On Feb 17, preceding the conference, Chuu-Lian Terng, from University of California at Irvine, will deliver a Departmental Colloquium talk. TGTC is a prestigious event, held every Spring and Fall at one of the participating universities in Texas, namely: University of Texas at Austin, Texas A&M University, Rice University, Texas Christian University, University of Houston and Texas Tech University. The 45th TGTC Meeting is supported by the National Science Foundation and the Department of Mathematics and Statistics at Texas Tech University. Many thanks go to the National Science Foundation and the Texas Tech University Administration for their special support. Everyone is welcome. There are no registration fees. The Texas Geometry and Topology Conference is committed to the strengthening and enrichment of the mathematics personnel base. We will be able to offer some support for expenses. Graduate students, junior faculty, women, minorities, and persons with disabilities are especially encouraged to participate and to apply for support. A registration website for the 45th TGTC Meeting is expected to become active after the Spring semester starts, in January 2011, and it will be accessible from the main departmental website: http://www.math.ttu.edu/ For general/past information on TGTC as an event, please see: http://www.math.tamu.edu/~tgtc/archive/ We would also like to thank the Texas A&M University Mathematics Department, in particular to the Geometry and Topology Research Group, for their great work in coordinating the TGTC meetings, statewide. For more information about the 45th TGTC meeting, please contact Lance Drager ([log in to unmask]), the Chair of the TGTC Organizing Committee at TTU. The organizing committee includes: Lance Drager, Razvan Gelca, Alastair Hamilton, Jeffrey Lee, Magdalena Toda. We are wishing everyone a restful winter break and a happy holiday season!

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.
