Dear Colleagues,

The twenty third Groupoidfest will be held at the 

Department of Mathematics, Statistics and Computer Science 
at the University of Illinois at Chicago 
on the weekend of November 10 & 11.  

The latest updates to the conference plans are here:

http://www.math.uic.edu/~hurder/groupoidfest2018/

All talks and the teas will be held in room 636 in the Science and Engineering Offices (SEO) building on the East Campus. Links to maps and more details are posted on the web page.

There are still opportunities to give a talk.  Please send an email to [log in to unmask]  if you are interested in giving a talk. Even better, include a title and abstract.

As always, there is no registration fee required, and no charge for conference Tea & Coffee & Refreshments.

Chicago is well-served by airlines and expressways, so it is likely that cheap flights to the city are available to either O'Hare or Midway Airports. The web page describes how to get from the airports to the city and the UIC East Campus.

There is a list of hotels near to UIC listed on the web page, and when I checked yesterday, they were still offering discounted rates. There are many hotels available in Chicago, but please be sure to check the location of a place you are interested in booking before choosing it just for the rate. Email Steve or Olga with any questions.

We look forward to seeing you all here next month!

=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- 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.
