This award supports travel for US-based participants in the conference "Topology of Manifolds," held June 27 - July 1, 2016, in Lisbon, Portugal. The event will consist of both plenary talks by senior researchers and contributed talks by junior participants. Manifolds are a generalized notion of space, appearing throughout mathematics and science more broadly. For example, the solutions to a set of equations will often have the structure of a smooth manifold. It is important for both mathematics and its applications to further our understanding of manifolds and their symmetries. Participants in the conference will include leading experts on the study of manifolds, and the purpose of the conference is to further our understanding of this central concept. The conference features plenary lectures by twelve leading world experts. The breadth of the expertise represented by the speakers reflects the breadth of the topic of the conference, the topology of manifolds. Within the topology of manifolds, the conference will focus on three specific areas, the study of moduli spaces, calculus of functors, and algebraic K- and L-theory, all of which have contributed to spectacular classical and recent advances in our understanding of manifolds of low and high dimension. The plenary and contributed talks will cover the forefront of research into the theory of manifolds. The conference will provide younger researchers with opportunities for exchange of knowledge, for networking, and for building collaborations with international peers and future colleagues. This award will increase US participation by supporting travel for US graduate students and speakers. There will be approximately 14 contributed talks at the conference, selected by the scientific committee with attention to diversity, with at least half the talks by young researchers.

该奖项支持美国参与者参加2016年6月27日至7月1日在葡萄牙里斯本举行的“流形拓扑”会议的旅行。该活动将包括高级研究人员的全体会议和初级参与者的贡献演讲。流形是空间的一个广义概念，在数学和科学中出现得更广泛。例如，一组方程的解通常具有光滑流形的结构。对于数学和它的应用来说，进一步理解流形及其对称性是很重要的。会议的与会者将包括流形研究方面的领先专家，会议的目的是进一步加深我们对这一中心概念的理解。会议由12位世界领先的专家进行全体演讲。发言者所代表的专业知识的广度反映了会议主题的广度，流形的拓扑结构。在流形的拓扑结构，会议将集中在三个具体领域，模空间的研究，函子演算，代数K-和L-理论，所有这些都有助于壮观的经典和最近的进展，我们的理解流形的低和高维。全体会议和贡献的会谈将涵盖到流形理论的研究前沿。会议将为年轻的研究人员提供交流知识，建立网络以及与国际同行和未来同事建立合作的机会。 该奖项将通过支持美国研究生和演讲者的旅行来增加美国的参与。会议期间将有大约14场演讲，由科学委员会选择，关注多样性，至少一半的演讲由年轻研究人员进行。会议的网页可在https://sites.google.com/site/manifoldslisbon2016/上找到
