Junior Topologists Meeting 2019

该奖项为美国参加2019年7月22日至26日在瑞士洛桑瑞士联邦理工学院（EPFL）举行的2019年青年拓扑学家会议提供了部分支持。青年拓扑学家会议（YTM）是一年一度的欧洲会议，其重点是研究生和拓扑学早期职业研究人员的工作，汇集了来自世界各地的参与者。在YTM，初级拓扑学家向大量的国际观众展示他们的工作，并参加由高级拓扑学家讲授的迷你课程。会议为与会者提供了结识新同事和导师的机会，形成研究合作，并了解该领域的最新发展。其开放和支持的氛围鼓励早期职业数学家，包括那些来自代表性不足的群体，追求拓扑学的研究事业。YTM是一项年度活动，始于2007年，传统上在丹麦哥本哈根和瑞士洛桑轮流举行（2017年在瑞典斯德哥尔摩举行除外）。会议的特点是研究生和早期职业研究人员的平行会议，涵盖了拓扑学的广泛主题。除了这些讲座之外，还将有两位资深拓扑学家的迷你课程，介绍纯拓扑学和应用拓扑学的两个最新研究方向。今年，Julie Bergner（弗吉尼亚大学）将开设一门关于2-Segal空间同调概念的迷你课程，而Vidit Nanda（牛津大学）将开设一门关于拓扑数据分析的迷你课程。更多的细节可以在会议的网页上找到：https://ytm2019.epfl.ch/This该奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的知识价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。

This award provides partial support for U.S. participation in the Young Topologists Meeting 2019, held at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology, Lausanne (EPFL) in Switzerland, July 22-26, 2019. The Young Topologists Meeting (YTM) is an annual European conference which focuses on the work of graduate students and early career researchers in topology that brings together participants from all over the world. At the YTM, junior topologists present their work to a large international audience and also attend mini-courses taught by senior topologists. The conference provides opportunities for the participants to meet new colleagues and mentors, to form research collaborations, and to learn about current developments in the field. Its open and supportive atmosphere encourages early career mathematicians, including those from underrepresented groups, to pursue research careers in topology. The YTM is an annual event, first started in 2007, which traditionally alternates between Copenhagen, Denmark and Lausanne, Switzerland (with an exception in 2017 when it was held in Stockholm, Sweden). The conference features parallel sessions of contributed talks by graduate students and early career researchers covering a broad spectrum of topics in topology. In addition to these talks, there will be mini-courses by two senior topologists on two current threads of research in pure and applied topology. This year, Julie Bergner (University of Virginia) will give a mini-course on the homotopical notion of 2-Segal spaces, while Vidit Nanda (University of Oxford) will give a mini-course on topological data analysis.
