We are pleased to invite you to the (virtual) 18th Graduate Student Topology and Geometry Conference (GSTGC), to be held online and organized by students of Indiana University (Bloomington), on April 9-11, 2021. This is the first announcement for this conference.

After careful thought and deliberation, the GSTGC organizers have decided that the conference will be held entirely online due to the pandemic. The registration deadline to give a talk or participate in the poster session is March 12, 2021. The registration deadline for all other participants is April 2, 2021.

This conference is a venue for graduate students interested in topology and geometry to be exposed to new research areas, present their own work in a productive and welcoming environment, network with their peers, and meet experts in the field. While the conference will be entirely online, its structure will closely follow that of previous years. In line with past conferences, GSTGC-2021 will feature many graduate student talks, along with invited talks by plenary and young faculty speakers. New to this year’s conference is a poster session, which will allow us to incorporate many more presenters into the weekend.

To register or to look up more information about the conference, please go to: 

https://gstgc2021.iu.edu.

Early grad students, women, and members of historically underrepresented groups are especially encouraged to apply.

Plenary Speakers:
Sarah Koch (University of Michigan)
Kate Ponto (University of Kentucky)
Daniel Ruberman (Brandeis University)

Young Faculty Speakers:
Bahar Acu (ETH Zürich)
Viveka Erlandsson (University of Bristol)
Dami Lee (University of Washington)
Clover May (UCLA)
Lisa Piccirillo (MIT)
Inna Zakharevich (Cornell University)

We hope to see you in April!

=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- 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. Announcements of individual talks and department seminars will also be rejected; https://mathseminars.org is a good option to announce for such talks. 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.
