This NSF award will provide partial support for speakers and participants of two meetings in the Redbud Geometry/Topology Conference series. The first meeting will take place at the University of Arkansas, in Fayetteville, Arkansas on April 27-29, 2017. The fall meeting will be held at the University of Oklahoma in Norman, Oklahoma in fall of 2017. A key objective of the Redbud Conference series is to increase interaction and collaboration between geometers and topologists in the EPSCoR states of Arkansas and Oklahoma. These meetings continue the series of Redbud Conferences held twice per year beginning in Fall 2011 on a rotating basis at the University of Arkansas, Oklahoma State University, and the University of Oklahoma. The mathematical focus of the spring meeting in 2017 is geometric group theory and low dimensional topology. The opening day of the spring meeting is a graduate student workshop featuring three talks of an expository nature delivered by speakers from the conference. This gives graduate students from the Arkansas-Oklahoma region the opportunity to interact with the larger mathematical community. The fall meeting is intended to showcase the work of graduate students, postdoctoral scholars, and junior faculty from the region. The specific focus of each meetings is as follows. The spring meeting will feature ten talks on geometric group theory and low dimensional topology. These are areas of intense research that utilize the interaction between the dynamics of group actions and the geometry of the spaces they act on to understand algebraic structure. Specific topics to be included are the outer automorphism group of a free group or a right-angled Artin group, the mapping class group of a surface and hyperbolic geometry. The fall meeting will feature five talks primarily by early-career mathematicians on a range of topics in topology and geometric group theory, based around the research interests of faculty at the three schools. The organizers will post notes and/or slides from the talks on the conference website. The conference website is comp.uark.edu/~mattclay/Redbud/

该NSF奖项将为Redbud几何/拓扑会议系列中两次会议的发言者和参与者提供部分支持。第一次会议将于2017年4月27日至29日在阿肯色州费耶特维尔的阿肯色州大学举行。 秋季会议将于2017年秋季在俄克拉荷马州诺曼的俄克拉荷马州大学举行。 雷德巴德会议系列的一个关键目标是增加阿肯色州和俄克拉荷马州EPSCoR州的几何学家和拓扑学家之间的互动和合作。 这些会议延续了从2011年秋季开始每年两次在阿肯色州大学、俄克拉荷马州州立大学和俄克拉荷马州大学轮流举行的一系列雷德巴德会议。 2017年春季会议的数学重点是几何群论和低维拓扑。 春季会议的开幕日是一个研究生工作坊，由会议发言人提供三个临时性的演讲。 这使来自阿肯色州-俄克拉荷马州地区的研究生有机会与更大的数学界互动。 秋季会议旨在展示该地区研究生、博士后学者和初级教师的工作。 每次会议的具体重点如下。 春季会议将有10个关于几何群论和低维拓扑的讲座。 这些都是密集的研究领域，利用群体作用的动力学和它们作用的空间几何之间的相互作用来理解代数结构。 具体议题包括外自同构组的自由组或直角阿廷组，映射类组的表面和双曲几何。 秋季会议将主要由早期职业数学家围绕三所学校教师的研究兴趣，就拓扑学和几何群论的一系列主题进行五次会谈。 组织者将在会议网站上发布演讲的笔记和/或幻灯片。会议网址为comp.uark.edu/~mattclay/Redbud/
