  The Hamilton Mathematics Institute, Trinity College Dublin

                            on

*Homological invariants in low-dimensional topology and geometry*


Sponsors: Boston College, the Hamilton Mathematics Institute, and
the National Science Foundation.


*Organizing Committee:* Javier Aramayona (Toulouse), John Baldwin (Boston
College), Ian Biringer (Boston College), Noel Brady (Oklahoma), Tom Brady
(Dublin City University), Martin Bridgeman (Boston College), Martin Bridson
(Oxford University), Vladimir Dotsenko (Trinity College Dublin), Josh
Greene (Boston College), Brendan Guilfoyle (Tralee institute of
Technology), G. Robert Meyerhoff (Boston College)

This is the first announcement for the 10th William Rowan Hamilton Geometry
and Topology Workshop to be held a the Hamilton Mathematics Institute
(HMI), in Trinity College Dublin Ireland. The workshop will consist of a
 two day mini-course August 26-27, followed by a three day lecture series,
August 28-30, 2014.


This year's topic for the workshop is *Homological invariants in
low-dimensional topology and geometry. *


*Funding and Sponsors:*

The workshop is co-sponsored by Boston College, the HMI and the
NSF. Funding is available for graduate students and junior
researchers wishing to attend the mini-course and workshop. A limited
amount of funding is also available for both junior and senior
researchers wishing to attend the workshop. If you would like to request
travel support you can do so on the workshop website at

*Minicourse**:*

This years minicourse will be given by Jacob Rasmussen (Cambridge) and Liam
Watson (Glasgow) on *Floer homology and low-dimensional topology.*

The minicourse will run August 26-27 and consist of a two-day series of
lectures and discussions. The target audience is graduate students and
junior researchers.

*Lecture Series:*

The lecture series will be August 28-30, speakers to be announced. There
will also be scheduled discussion and problem sessions.

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.
