This award provides partial support to U.S. based participants of the conference "Classical and quantum 3-manifold topology" to be held at Monash University in Clayton, a suburb of Melbourne, Australia, from 17 to 21 December 2018, preceded by a workshop for students and early career researchers on 14-15 December 2018. The conference and workshop will promote progress in mathematics by bringing together international researchers in two related areas of topology, encouraging the dissemination of new ideas and results, increasing collaboration, and introducing new researchers to important problems in these fields. This will contribute to the training and development of mathematical talent.The last four decades have witnessed the discovery of many deep connections between topological quantum field theory (TQFT), low-dimensional topology, and geometric structures on manifolds. This conference is devoted to exploring and strengthening these connections. The specific goals are: first, to provide a venue for sharing new results in these closely related areas. Second, to increase collaboration and communication among research experts globally in these fields. Third, to introduce researchers, especially students and early career researchers, to important open problems and areas of current research, particularly problems lying at the interface of quantum and classical topology in three dimensions. To meet these goals, the conference and workshop will bring together a distinguished international group of mathematicians. The strong scientific program of the conference is expected to encourage researchers working in these subjects to find common ground and lead to new developments. In addition, the introductory talks during the workshop will enable junior mathematicians to learn major research themes and eventually to contribute to these areas.

该奖项提供部分支持，以会议的美国参与者“经典和量子3流形拓扑”将在莫纳什大学在克莱顿，墨尔本，澳大利亚的郊区，从17日至21日2018年12月14日至15日，由学生和早期职业研究人员研讨会之前举行。会议和研讨会将促进数学的进步，汇集国际研究人员在拓扑学的两个相关领域，鼓励传播新的想法和成果，增加合作，并介绍新的研究人员在这些领域的重要问题。这将有助于培养和发展数学人才。在过去的四十年里，人们发现了拓扑量子场论（TQFT）、低维拓扑和流形上的几何结构之间的许多深刻联系。本次会议致力于探索和加强这些联系。具体目标是：第一，为分享这些密切相关领域的新成果提供场所。第二，加强全球研究专家在这些领域的合作和交流。第三，向研究人员，特别是学生和早期职业研究人员，介绍当前研究的重要开放问题和领域，特别是位于三维量子和经典拓扑界面的问题。为了实现这些目标，会议和研讨会将汇集一个杰出的国际数学家小组。会议的强大的科学计划预计将鼓励研究人员在这些主题中找到共同点，并导致新的发展。此外，研讨会期间的介绍性演讲将使初级数学家能够学习主要的研究主题，并最终为这些领域做出贡献。 该会议的网站，其中包括进一步的细节，位于：https://sites.google.com/view/cq3dt/homeThis奖反映了NSF的法定使命，并已被认为是值得通过使用基金会的智力价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估的支持。
