This grant supports US participants expenses in the workshop "Contact Geometry in Dimension Three and Higher" to be held at University College London, from July 28 to August 1, 2014. This workshop aims to bring together researchers and students from around the world working in contact geometry and related areas in symplectic topology. There are large groups of researchers in both the U.S. and Europe working in contact topology; and to foster further developments in the field it is important that there is good communication between these research groups. This conference will help provide some of that communication. The workshop includes topics such as pseudo-holomorphic curves, h-principles, symplectic dynamics and Stein manifolds, with the specific goal of introducing higher-dimensional techniques to participants who might be more familiar with low dimensions, or vice versa. The program will be a mixture of ordinary research talks with more in-depth mini-courses on topics of recent interest. The mini-courses will be "Orderability and Rabinowitz Floer theory" by Peter Albers (Munster) and Will Merry (ETH Zurich), "Flexibility in higher-dimensional contact geometry" by Patrick Massot (École Polytechnique) and Emmy Murphy (MIT), and "Intersection theory of punctured holomorphic curves and applications" by Richard Siefring (MPI Leipzig) and Chris Wendl (UCL). The exact list of research talks will be determined closer to the time of the workshop to reflect the latest developments in the field.

该补助金支持美国参与者在研讨会上的费用“接触几何在三维和更高的”将在伦敦大学学院伦敦，从7月28日至2014年8月1日举行。本次研讨会的目的是汇集来自世界各地的研究人员和学生在接触几何和辛拓扑相关领域的工作。在美国和欧洲都有大量的研究人员从事接触拓扑学的研究;为了促进该领域的进一步发展，这些研究小组之间保持良好的沟通是很重要的。这次会议将有助于提供一些这种沟通。该研讨会的主题包括伪全纯曲线，h-原理，辛动力学和Stein流形，具体目标是向可能更熟悉低维的参与者介绍高维技术，反之亦然。 该计划将是一个普通的研究会谈与最近感兴趣的话题更深入的迷你课程的混合物。微型课程包括Peter阿尔伯斯（Munster）和Will Merry（苏黎世联邦理工学院）的“有序性和Rabinowitz Floer理论”，帕特里克马索（École Polytechnique）和Emmy Murphy（MIT）的“高维接触几何的灵活性”，以及Richard Siefring（MPI Leipzig）和Chris Wendl（UCL）的“穿孔全纯曲线的相交理论和应用”。研究会谈的确切名单将在接近研讨会的时候确定，以反映该领域的最新发展。有关详细信息，请访问研讨会网页：http://www.homepages.ucl.ac.uk/~ucahcwe/workshop.html
