50th Spring Topology and Dynamical Systems Conference

第五十届春季拓扑与动力系统会议将于2016年3月10日至13日在贝勒大学举行。 该系列的第一次会议于1967年在亚利桑那州立大学举行。 组织者预计，会议将吸引来自美国和国外的150至200名与会者。 会议的范围既包括经典领域，如集合论拓扑和连续统理论，也包括动力系统，几何拓扑和几何群论领域。春季拓扑会议汇集了来自多个拓扑领域的研究人员。 有五个平行会议代表集理论拓扑，连续理论，动力系统，几何拓扑和几何群论。 大会有六次全体会议和十二次半全体会议。 这些会谈有助于突出该领域今年的主要进展。 每年的全体会议之一是保留给赢家的玛丽埃伦鲁丁青年研究员奖，这是给一个有前途的初级topologist。 今年的会议还将在会议开始前一天的3月9日举行为期一天的研讨会，针对研究生和初级研究人员。春季拓扑和动态系统会议寻求研究生，年轻研究人员，妇女和代表性不足的群体的积极参与。该赠款提供资金，在没有外部支持的情况下，为受邀演讲者、研究生和研究人员提供差旅费。会议网址为：http://sites.baylor.edu/topology-conference/。

The Fiftieth Spring Topology and Dynamical Systems Conference will be held at Baylor University from March 10-13, 2016. The first meeting in this series was held at Arizona State University in 1967. The organizers expect the conference to attract between 150 and 200 participants from the United States and abroad. The scope of the conference encompasses both classical fields like set-theoretic topology and continuum theory, and also the fields of dynamical systems, geometric topology and geometric group theory.The Spring Topology Conference brings together researchers from several areas of topology. There are five parallel sessions representing set-theoretic topology, continuum theory, dynamical systems, geometric topology and geometric group theory. The conference has six plenary and twelve semi-plenary talks. These talks serve to highlight the major advances in the field for the year. Each year one of the plenary talks is reserved for the winner of the Mary Ellen Rudin Young Researcher Award, which is given to a promising junior topologist. This year's meeting will also feature one-day workshops on March 9, the day before the conference begins, aimed at graduate students and junior researchers. The Spring Topology and Dynamical Systems Conference seeks the active participation of graduate students, young researchers, women and under-represented groups. The grant provides funds to support travel for invited speakers, graduate students and researchers without external support.
