The conference "Groups, Geometry, and Three-manifolds" will be held May 21-22 at the University of California in Berkeley, California. This conference will bring together a number of experts in "Thurstonian" three-manifold topology and related areas to discuss their latest research, as well as to talk about where the subject may be headed. In addition to the speakers, the grant will fund the participation of a number of faculty at primarily undergraduate institutions, as well as early career researchers.The proofs of the virtual Haken conjecture and the virtual fibering conjecture by Agol have moved the study of three-manifolds into an exciting new stage. Although these central problems have been resolved, there remain many exciting directions to pursue. At this conference experts in the field will give talks on topics such as: random methods in three-manifolds, deformations of geometric structures, algorithmic methods in three-manifolds, Dehn surgery and the space of all three-manifolds, and hyperbolic geometry. Participants will also be asked to contribute to a new problem list in Thurstonian geometry and topology, and this problem list will be published on the conference website: https://sites.google.com/site/groupsgeometry3manifolds/

会议“群，几何和三流形”将于5月21日至22日在加州伯克利的加州大学举行。本次会议将汇集一些专家在“瑟斯顿”三流形拓扑和相关领域，讨论他们的最新研究，以及谈论该主题可能会领导。除了演讲者之外，该基金还将资助一些主要是本科院校的教师以及早期职业研究人员的参与。Agol对虚Haken猜想和虚Hakening猜想的证明已经将三维流形的研究带入了一个令人兴奋的新阶段。 虽然这些核心问题已经解决，但仍有许多令人兴奋的方向需要探索。 在这次会议上，该领域的专家将发表演讲，主题包括：三流形中的随机方法，几何结构的变形，三流形中的算法方法，Dehn手术和所有三流形的空间，以及双曲几何。 与会者还将被要求贡献一个新的问题清单在瑟斯顿几何和拓扑，这个问题清单将公布在会议网站：https://sites.google.com/site/groupsgeometry3manifolds/
