The topology and geometry of low-dimensional manifolds: a celebration of the mathematics of Bob Gompf July 12-15, 2018 at the University of Texas at Austin This conference will bring mathematicians together to discuss recent developments in smooth and symplectic low-dimensional topology and geometry, and celebrate the first anniversary of Bob Gompf's 60th birthday. Speakers will include: - Inanc Baykur <https://people.math.umass.edu/~baykur/> (Umass Amherst)* - Yasha Eliashberg <https://mathematics.stanford.edu/people/name/yakov-eliashberg/> (Stanford) - Shelly Harvey <http://math.rice.edu/~shelly/> (Rice) - Rob Kirby <https://math.berkeley.edu/~kirby/> (Berkeley) - Tian-Jun Li <http://www-users.math.umn.edu/~lixxx248/> (Minnesota) - Tye Lidman <http://www4.ncsu.edu/~tlidman/> (NC State) - Gordana Matic <http://www.ma.utexas.edu/conferences/gompf/Gordana%20Matic> (University of Georgia) - Allison Miller <https://www.ma.utexas.edu/users/amiller/> (UT-Austin) - Tom Mrowka <http://www-math.mit.edu/~mrowka/> (MIT) - Danny Ruberman <http://people.brandeis.edu/~ruberman/> (Brandeis) - Hannah Schwartz <https://www.brynmawr.edu/sites/default/files/NewCVHannah.pdf> (Bryn Mawr) - Andras Stipsicz <https://users.renyi.hu/~stipsicz/> (Renyi Institute) - Bulent Tosun <https://math.ua.edu/profile/bulent-tosun/> (Alabama) - Kouichi Yasui <http://www.math.sci.osaka-u.ac.jp/eng/staff_yasui.html> (Osaka) *To be confirmed We expect to be able to support a limited number of graduate students and early career mathematicians. You can apply for support on the Registration page. We especially encourage members from underrepresented groups in mathematics to apply. Priority will be given to people who apply before April 15th. The first talk will be at 9am on Thursday July 12, and the last talk will end at noon on Sunday, July 15. The conference is supported by the University of Texas at Austin and we anticipate additional support from the NSF. Registration information along with hotel and schedule information can be found at the conference website: http:www.ma.utexas.edu/conferences/gompf/ <http://www.ma.utexas.edu/conferences/gompf/> Organizers: John Etnyre <http://people.math.gatech.edu/~etnyre/> (Georgia Tech), Laura Starkston <https://web.stanford.edu/~lstarkst/> (Stanford), Jeremy Van Horn-Morris <http://comp.uark.edu/~jv002/> (Arkansas), Jonathan Williams <http://www2.math.binghamton.edu/p/people/jwilliams/start> (Binghamton) =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- This message was sent to you via the Geometry List, which announces conferences in geometry and closely related areas to over 1600 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.
