This award supports three annual "Georgia Topology Conference" meetings to be held at The University of Georgia in Athens, GA on May 21-25, 2014, and subsequently in May 2015 and May 2016. Topology can be viewed as the study of the structure and shape of the space we live in, particularly of the properties of the space that are not changed as the space is continuously deformed. There are deep relationships between topology, geometry, and physics, as well as applications to topics such as fluid dynamics, robotics, and image analysis. It is this diversity of approaches to central problems that has always energized research in topology.The Georgia Topology Conference is an annual event that has been organized by topologists at the University of Georgia over the past half-century. An important aspect of this conference is that the organizers have consistently stressed the participation of new and recent doctoral recipients as speakers and encouraged participation by graduate students. With a format featuring the participation of several senior mathematicians and a larger group of junior researchers, this conference series plays a significant role in both disseminating the newest research and preparing graduate students and postdocs for a successful career in mathematics. The conference encourages and supports participation by members of under-represented groups. The Georgia Topology Conference in 2014 will be centered on the theme of automorphisms of surfaces.

该奖项支持将于2014年5月21日至25日在佐治亚州雅典的格鲁吉亚大学以及随后于2015年5月和2016年5月举行的三次年度“格鲁吉亚拓扑会议”。拓扑学可以看作是对我们所居住的空间的结构和形状的研究，特别是对空间的性质的研究，这些性质不会随着空间的不断变形而改变。拓扑学、几何学和物理学之间有着深刻的联系，在流体动力学、机器人学和图像分析等主题中也有着广泛的应用。正是这种解决中心问题的方法的多样性一直激励着拓扑学的研究。佐治亚拓扑学会议是由佐治亚大学的拓扑学家在过去半个世纪里组织的一年一度的活动。这次会议的一个重要方面是，组织者一贯强调新的和最近的博士获得者作为演讲者参加，并鼓励研究生参加。这一系列会议以几位资深数学家和一大批初级研究人员参与的形式，在传播最新研究成果和为研究生和博士后在数学领域的成功生涯做好准备方面发挥了重要作用。会议鼓励和支持任职人数不足的群体的成员参加。2014年的佐治亚州拓扑学会议将围绕曲面的自同构这一主题展开。欲了解更多信息，请访问会议网站http://www.math.uga.edu/~topology/。
