William Rowan Hamilton Geometry and Topology Workshop

第九届威廉罗文汉密尔顿几何和拓扑研讨会是一个为期五天的，指导研讨会“几何和群体瑟斯顿后”，将在爱尔兰都柏林的汉密尔顿数学研究所（HMI）举行，2013年8月27日至31日。研讨会将包括为期两天的研究生和初级研究人员的小型课程，然后是为期三天的系列讲座。 在过去的一年里，威廉·瑟斯顿（William P. Thurston，1946-2012）去世了，他的工作和学术计划影响了过去三十年来该领域的大部分研究。此外，最近的进展已经看到大部分瑟斯顿的精神病计划现在解决。今年的研讨会旨在考虑新的研究方向和新的问题，这将指导未来的研究在瑟斯顿的原始程序的精神。William Rowan汉密尔顿几何和拓扑研讨会的目标是研究当前几何和拓扑研究的重要领域中的共同主题和技术，并支持对这些领域感兴趣的初级研究人员。该研讨会将汇集领先的研究人员在几何和拓扑学与研究生和初级研究人员谁有一个特殊的兴趣在相关的群论和低维几何问题，以调查在这些领域的研究前沿的问题。来自不同领域的专业知识的融合将导致新的合作项目，并扩大参与者的研究视野。研讨会网站位于http://www.hamilton.tcd.ie/events/gt/gt2013.htm

The 9th William Rowan Hamilton Geometry and Topology Workshop is a five-day, directed workshop on "Geometry and Groups after Thurston", to be held at the Hamilton Mathematical Institute (HMI) in Dublin, Ireland, August 27-31, 2013. The workshop will consist of a two-day minicourse for graduate students and junior researchers, followed by a three day lecture series. This past year has seen the passing of William P. Thurston (1946-2012) whose work and conjectural program infuenced much of the research in the field over the past three decades. Also, recent progress has seen most of Thurston's conjectural program now solved. This year's workshop aims to consider new directions of research and new problems which will direct future research in the spirit of Thurston's original program. The goal of the William Rowan Hamilton Geometry and Topology Workshop is to investigate common themes and techniques among significant areas of current research in geometry and topology and to support junior researchers interested in these areas. The workshop will bring together leading researchers in geometry and topology with graduates students and junior researchers who have a special interest in problems related to group theory and low-dimensional geometry to investigate questions at the forefront of research in these areas. The confluence of expertise from different areas will result in new collaborative projects, and in broadening the research horizons of the participants.
