The initial meeting of the Cascade Topology Seminar during the grant period occurs the weekend of November 19-20, 2016 at Seattle University, located in Seattle, Washington. The Seminar is scheduled to continue meeting semi-annually throughout the grant period at various Universities in the US Pacific Northwest and Southwestern Canada. The Seminar provides for frequent contacts between workers in similar fields, allows for practitioners to keep abreast of recent developments by bringing in speakers and experts from outside the region, enables undergraduate and graduate students, post-docs, University faculty and industrial topologists in the Pacific Northwest and Southwestern Canada to hear, consult, and collaborate with the outside speakers and with practitioners from other institutions, in addition to providing an opportunities for local practitioners in academia, industry, and government to lecture on their own work. As the Cascade Topology Seminar is designed in part to keep its participants abreast of recent developments in their own and related fields, no attempt is made to limit the topics covered. However, the interests of the various organizers tend to be mirrored by the interests of the presenters, thus, the presentations at the Seminars usually concern algebraic, geometric, or low dimensional topology, differential or algebraic geometry, or combinatorial group theory. The Seminar also coordinates its activities with the Pacific Northwest Geometry Seminar and the Western States Geometric Topology Workshop with whom joint meetings have occasionally been held. Recent topics covered in Seminar presentations include triangulations, twist knots and the uniform thickness property, right-angled Coxeter polytopes, hyperbolic 6-manifolds, geometric representatives of homology classes in the space of knots , four manifold topology, finite group actions in Kervaire manifolds, locally symmetric spaces, the cohomology of symmetric groups, metrics on manifolds with large volume and spectral gap, Properties of the Alexander polynomial and knot Floer homology, higher real K-theory spectra ,the bo-Adams spectral sequence, the simplicial EHP Sequence in A1 algebraic topology, Calabi-Yau categories, the Floer theory of a cotangent bundle, and string topology.

在赠款期间，瀑布拓扑研讨会的首次会议于2016年11月19日至20日周末在华盛顿州西雅图的西雅图大学举行。研讨会计划在整个赠款期间继续每半年在美国太平洋西北部和加拿大西南部的多所大学举行一次会议。研讨会为类似领域的工作者提供了频繁的接触，允许从业者通过引入来自该地区以外的演讲者和专家来了解最新发展，使太平洋西北部和加拿大西南部的本科生和研究生、博士后、大学教职员工和工业拓扑学家能够听取、咨询外部演讲者和来自其他机构的从业者的意见，并与来自其他机构的从业者进行合作，此外，还为当地学术界、行业和政府从业者提供了关于他们自己工作的演讲机会。由于级联拓扑学研讨会的设计部分是为了让与会者了解其各自领域和相关领域的最新发展，因此没有试图限制所涵盖的主题。然而，不同组织者的兴趣往往反映在演讲者的兴趣上，因此，研讨会上的演讲通常涉及代数、几何或低维拓扑学、微分或代数几何或组合群论。研讨会还与太平洋西北几何学研讨会和西部国家几何拓扑学讲习班协调其活动，有时还与它们举行联席会议。近期的专题演讲包括：三角剖分、扭曲纽结和均匀厚度性质、直角Coxeter多面体、双曲6-流形、纽结空间中同调类的几何表示、四个流形拓扑、Kervaire流形中的有限群作用、局部对称空间、对称群的上同调、具有大体积和谱间隙的流形上的度量、Alexander多项式和纽结Floer同调的性质、更高的实K-理论谱、bo-Adams谱序列、A1代数拓扑中的单纯EHP序列、Calabi-Yau范畴、余切丛的Floer理论和拓扑弦。有关级联拓扑研讨会的一般信息、支持信息和申请以及研讨会即将举行的会议的链接，请访问：http://www.pdx.edu/math/cascade-topology-seminar
