Dear colleagues, We are glad to announce the Uppsala Summer School on Legendrian contact homology with a variety of augmentations, mentored by Prof Lenny Ng from Duke University. It will be held on the week 33, i.e. 2017/08/14-18 at Krusenberg Herrgård, near Uppsala, Sweden. The model for this workshop is the very popular and successful Talbot Workshop. The workshop will constitute a weeklong retreat with talks and organised discussions during the day; enough time will be kept clear for informal discussions and collaborations. Prof Ng will outline the program of talks to be given by the participants, most of whom will be expected to give one of the talks. The workshop discussions will have an expository nature and are aimed at graduate students and junior researchers interested in this area; no prior knowledge of Legendrian contact homology will be assumed. Further information about the workshop, a preliminary program, and a registration page can be found at http://www2.math.uu.se/~margo137/LCH-school.htm. The deadline for registering is April 30. If you know someone who is interested in participating or would like to receive more information about the workshop, please email us at the address [log in to unmask] All local expenses will be covered; we may also be able to subsidise participants' travel expenses within Europe. Please note that the number of participants will be strictly limited. The organisers, Marco Golla Maksim Maydanskiy =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- This message was sent to you via the Geometry List, which announces conferences in geometry and closely related areas to almost 1500 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. After submitting an announcement you may receive a message asking you to confirm your submission. 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. If you do not see your announcement within 48 hours, please check the archives to see whether it was actually posted (i.e. you somehow missed seeing the post or are not subscribed with your current email address). If the announcement is not in the archive, search for a confirmation message that you may have missed (from listserv.utk.edu). If none of this solves the mystery, send a message to [log in to unmask] The Geometry List is sponsored and maintained by the Mathematics Department, The University of Tennessee, Knoxville.
