The Spring 2018 Redbud conference will be held at Oklahoma State University April 
27–29, 2018. The Redbud conference is a regional conference in topology and 
geometry with participants from the University of Oklahoma, Oklahoma State 
University, the University of Arkansas, and elsewhere.

Friday 27th of April will be a graduate student workshop, with introductory talks on 
triangulations of three- and four-manifolds and on trisections of four-manifolds. 
The main conference will be held on Saturday 28th and Sunday 29th of April.

We will be able to cover a portion of the travel expenses for participants without 
other means of support. Graduate student, recent Ph.D.s, and mathematicians in 
underrepresented groups working in geometric topology are especially encouraged 
to apply for funding. 

This conference is supported by the National Science Foundation and Oklahoma 
State University.

We hope to see you in April!

Local organizers:
Andy Eisenberg
Robert Haraway III

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]
