This award supports participation in three meetings in a series of annual conferences held at Cornell University and next convening May 8-10, 2015. The conference series subject area is algebraic, differential, and geometric topology and allied subjects. The conference series provides a significant arena for the development and dissemination of a wide array of research results and has been a force in the mathematical life of topologists and geometers in the northeastern United States and beyond since 1963. It has a broad, interdisciplinary flavor and collaboration-friendly format. The meetings begin with an introductory day aimed at graduate students and non-specialists. The training effects are extended by dissemination of lecture notes and summaries of panel discussions.Approximately ten speakers are invited each year, from a variety of subject areas in and around topology. Each year an area of emphasis is chosen from which about a third of the speakers are drawn; this allows deeper focus on fields undergoing rapid change and is responsive to the trends in topology toward specialization and cross-disciplinary activity. For the 2015 meeting, the area of emphasis will be "groups acting on negatively curved spaces." The broader impacts of the conference series include (a) a more broadly-trained community of topologists, able to transcend the boundaries of sub-specialties; (b) a more diverse mathematical workforce; (c) a more rapid integration of younger topologists into areas of current research; and (d) the enhancement of collaboration among researchers in different areas of topology.

该奖项支持参加在康奈尔大学举行的一系列年度会议中的三次会议，并于2015年5月8日至10日召开。 会议系列的主题领域是代数，微分，几何拓扑和盟军的主题。 该系列会议为广泛研究成果的开发和传播提供了一个重要的竞技场，自1963年以来一直是美国东北部及其他地区拓扑学家和几何学家数学生活中的一支力量。 它具有广泛的跨学科风格和合作友好的格式。 会议开始的介绍日针对研究生和非专业人士。 培训效果通过分发课堂讲稿和小组讨论摘要来扩大。每年邀请来自拓扑学及其相关学科领域的约10位演讲者。 每年都会选择一个重点领域，其中大约三分之一的演讲者被吸引;这使得人们能够更深入地关注正在经历快速变化的领域，并对拓扑学走向专业化和跨学科活动的趋势做出反应。 2015年会议的重点领域将是“在消极弯曲空间中采取行动的群体”。" 会议系列的更广泛的影响包括：（a）一个更广泛的培训社会的拓扑学家，能够超越子专业的界限;（B）一个更多样化的数学劳动力;（c）更迅速地整合年轻的拓扑学家到目前的研究领域;和（d）加强合作的研究人员在不同领域的拓扑。会议系列的网站是http://www.math.cornell.edu/~festival/。
