Graduate Student Topology and Geometry Conference

第十二届研究生拓扑与几何年会将于2014年4月5日至6日在德克萨斯大学奥斯汀分校举行。这次会议将汇集全国约170名数学专业的研究生。讨论和介绍的主题将包括几何学和拓扑学中广泛的子领域，包括低维拓扑、代数拓扑、代数几何、辛几何和微分几何。加州大学伯克利分校的Robion Kirby和宾夕法尼亚大学的Tony Pantev将举行两次全体会议，让研究生接触开创性的研究。还将有六场由年轻教员主持的演讲，他们将介绍新的研究途径和重要的开放问题。大部分讲座(至少24场)将由研究生学员主讲。他们将有机会向该领域的同行解释他们的研究和原创研究。会议将为与会者提供足够的时间提问，讨论他们对开放问题的看法，交流想法，并与未来的同事网络建立友谊。第十二届研究生拓扑和几何年会是专门针对研究生的最大会议之一。它为研究生向包括该领域的专家、渴望学习的初学者和相关领域的专家在内的广大观众介绍他们的工作提供了宝贵的培训经验。聆听教职员工和研究生的演讲，让参与者接触到来自广泛视角的想法，并向他们通报本国大学以外的数学家在解决问题方面取得的进展。在未来的联合研究之前，与同学们讨论共同的数学兴趣。研究生几何和拓扑学会议为在一系列相互关联的领域中相互联系、相互交流的新一代美国数学家提供了基础。有关该会议的更多信息，请访问：http://ma.utexas.edu/conferences/gstgc14/.

The twelfth annual Graduate Student Topology and Geometry Conference will be held at the University of Texas at Austin, April 5 and 6, 2014. The conference will bring together approximately 170 graduate students from mathematics programs across the country. The topics discussed and presented will include a wide range of subfields in geometry and topology including low-dimensional topology, algebraic topology, algebraic geometry, symplectic geometry, and differential geometry. There will be two plenary talks by distinguished faculty members, Robion Kirby from the University of California Berkeley and Tony Pantev from the University of Pennsylvania, to expose graduate students to groundbreaking research. There will also be six talks by young faculty members who will present new avenues of research and important open questions. The majority of the talks (at least 24) will be given by graduate student participants. They will have the opportunity to explain their studies and original research to their peers in the field. The conference will provide sufficient time in between talks for participants to ask questions, discuss their perspectives on open problems, exchange ideas, and build friendships with a network of future coworkers.The twelfth annual Graduate Student Topology and Geometry Conference is one of the largest meetings aimed specifically at graduate students. It provides a valuable training experience for graduate students to present their work to a large audience which includes specialists in that field, beginners eager to learn, and specialists in related fields. Listening to talks by faculty and graduate students exposes participants to ideas from a wide range of perspectives and informs them of progress being made on problems by mathematicians outside of their home university. Discussions with fellow students about common mathematical interests precedes joint research in the future. The Graduate Student Geometry and Topology Conference provides the groundwork for a connected, communicative, new generation of US mathematicians in a range of interrelated fields.More information about the conference can be found at: http://ma.utexas.edu/conferences/gstgc14/.
