The Conference: R.D.M. Accola's Work: In Memoriam http://math.bu.edu/people/ep/Accola/ will be held at Boston University, Friday afternoon through Saturday March 18-19, 2016. This meeting is intended to honor Bob Accola (1930-2011), explore and promote further extensions of his important work on Riemann Surfaces. Main Lectures will be given by: Alexandru Buium, University of New Mexico Eleanor Farrington, Massachusetts Maritime Academy David Grant, University of Colorado Boulder (TBC) Bruno Harris, Brown University Ernst Kani, Queen's University Michael Rosen, Brown University For additional speakers, activities, and details please visit the web page presently under construction: http://math.bu.edu/people/ep/Accola/ This conference is made possible by the Sponsorship of the National Security Agency. If you wish to offer a presentation or poster on the main topic please email me, the organizer. Provided you are a US Citizen or Permanent Resident I can reimburse your expenses partly or fully, from the NSA grant. We strongly encourage underrepresented or disabled mathematicians to apply. A registration link will soon be available from the webpage. Registration Fees include refreshments and a buffet lunch on Saturday, as well as the information packet containing scientific and logistic materials; if a waiver of the fee can help you, I can probably accommodate it, just let me know. A Proceedings Volume is planned. Please join us in celebration of a humble and epoch-making mathematician.

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.
