Moab Topology Conference; Moab, UT; May 2009

低维拓扑学会议将于2009年5月13日至15日在犹他州的摩押举行。会议将集中讨论双曲几何、3流形和几何群论等领域。近年来，这些领域有了长足的发展，并出现了许多重叠。演讲者将介绍这些领域的最新研究和新成果。会议旨在将知名专家、初级数学家和研究生聚集在一起，探讨最近的发展和他们之间的潜在联系。演讲者既包括著名的研究人员，也包括早期的职业数学家。参与者包括许多研究生和职业生涯早期的数学家，以及来自美国西部代表不足的团体、较小的学院和大学的数学家。会议将为与会者提供一个互动的机会，展示他们的研究成果，并培养新的想法和对话。

A conference on low dimensional topology will be held in Moab, Utah, May 13-15, 2009. The conference will focus on the areas of hyperbolic geometry, 3 manifolds, and geometric group theory. These areas have had significant development and much overlap in recent years. Speakers will present current research and new results in these fields.The conference aims to bring together established experts, junior mathematicians, and graduate students, to explore recent developments and their potential connections. Speakers include both well-known researchers and early career mathematicians. Participants include many graduate students and early career mathematicians, as well as mathematicians from underrepresented groups, smaller colleges and universities in the western United States. The conference will provide the participants an opportunity to interact, to present their research, and to cultivate new ideas and dialogue.
