YAMABE SYMPOSIUM OCTOBER 5 -- 7, 2012
This coming October 5--7 (Friday-Sunday) will be the
Fiftieth Anniversary Yamabe Memorial Symposium at the University
of Minnesota in Minneapolis. The topic this time is "Geometry and
Analysis". Confirmed speakers are:
Huai-Dong Cao, Lehigh University
Jean-Pierre Demailly, University of Grenoble
Benson Farb, University of Chicago
Robert Hardt, Rice University
Misha Kapovich, University of California, Davis
Conan Leung, Chinese University of Hong Kong
Natasa Sesum, Rutgers University
Ben Weinkove, University of California, San Diego
Financial Support
We have funding from the National Science Foundation to
defray workshop expenses for a number of participants, with
highest preference given to younger scientists (grad students,
postdocs, young faculty or researchers at most five years after
Ph.D.), although all active people are eligible. Women and
minorities are especially encouraged to apply. The application
deadline for full consideration for funding is
Wednesday, July 25, 2012.
Those who have resources available from their own grants are
requested to rely on such resources. Applications received later
may also be considered if funds allow.
If you are applying for financial assistance, you should send a
brief CV and have one letter of recommendation, addressing your
qualifications, sent to [log in to unmask] or by hard copy to
Yamabe Committee, c/o Robert Gulliver, School of Mathematics,
University of Minnesota, Minneapolis, MN 55455. The
recommendation letter is optional for people holding a Ph.D in
mathematics.
Registration for the workshop can be done on the web at
http://www.math.umn.edu/yamabe/2012/registration. The deadline for
registration (to ensure housing) is Monday, September 17, 2012.
Later registrations may also be possible.
For further information see http://www.math.umn.edu/yamabe/2012/.
We hope you will make plans to come to the symposium! Also,
please recommend it to the graduate students, postdocs and faculty
colleagues you are in contact with.
This symposium is supported by the National Science Foundation,
and by the Yamabe Memorial Fund at the University of Minnesota.
If you have further questions about the symposium, please
do not hesitate to contact us at [log in to unmask]

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.
