The organizers are pleased to announce the conference "Conformal Geometry, Analysis, and Physics," to take place at the University of Washington in Seattle from June 13 - 17, 2022. The conference, originally scheduled for summer 2020, is in honor of Robin Graham on the occasion of his 65th birthday and academic retirement. The themes will be broadly all of the subjects in the title, particularly at points where they interact: the AdS/CFT correspondence, geometric scattering theory, asymptotically hyperbolic Einstein metrics, Q-curvature conditions, classical conformal geometry, and Yamabe problems, among other examples. Goals of the conference will be to provide a forum for experts and young researchers to present their research, as well as to provide possibility for fruitful interaction among attendees. It is a particular hope that attendees whose work is of mutual interest to each other, but who might not usually cross paths, will have opportunities to interact. There will also be a poster session for early-career researchers and graduate students. Confirmed speakers include: Eric Bahuaud, Seattle University Robert Bryant, Duke (Clay Mathematics Speaker) Andreas Cap, University of Vienna Jeffrey Case, Pennsylvania State University Azahara de la Torre Pedraza, Sapienza University of Rome Michael Eastwood, Australian National University Nikolaos Eptaminitakis, Purdue Dan Fox, Technical University of Madrid Rod Gover, University of Auckland Qing Han, Notre Dame Kengo Hirachi, University of Tokyo Andreas Karch, University of Texas at Austin Claude LeBrun, Stony Brook University John M. Lee, University of Washington Yueh-Ju Lin, Wichita State University Lionel Mason, Oxford Rafe Mazzeo, Stanford Richard Melrose, MIT Paweł Nurowski, Polish Academy of Sciences Jie Qing, University of California, Santa Cruz Kostas Skenderis, University of Southampton Andràs Vasy, Stanford Andrew Waldron, University of California, Davis Yi Wang, Johns Hopkins Edward Witten, Institute for Advanced Study Travis Willse, Guilford College Maciej Zworski, University of California, Berkeley Funding has largely already been disbursed, but participants may still request funding and might receive some as available; early-career researchers, women, and members of under-represented groups are particularly encouraged to apply. Registration is available on the website at https://personal.utdallas.edu/~sxm190098/graham65/ , which is also where further information will be available. A poster is available there. We hope to have lectures available live by zoom or other live-stream, and such information will be posted on the website. There will be a banquet on Thursday evening, which will cost $50 ($30 for graduate students). If you wish to attend the banquet, you must register by this Wednesday at noon PDT. Important COVID information: All attendees will have to provide proof of either COVID vaccination or a negative test within 72 hours of each day they are attending. Sufficient evidence includes a COVID vaccination record card, printed or electronically presented COVID vaccination health record or, for those attending outside the United States, a reasonable equivalent of either. Negative test results (for the unvaccinated) must be PCR tests. Sincerely, Sun-Yung Alice Chang, Princeton University Stephen E.

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. You are strongly encouraged to provide essential information such as dates and location near the top of the body of your message, and not require someone to visit your conference link to find it. 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.
