Conference: Richmond Geometry Meeting: Knots, Moduli, and Strings

该奖项支持里士满几何节：结，模量，和字符串发生在2023年6月2日至4日，在弗吉尼亚州里士满弗吉尼亚联邦大学。 本次会议的目的是汇集专家在两个研究领域：低维拓扑和代数几何从不同的职业生涯阶段，并从各种机构。除了国际知名专家的讲座外，垂直整合的参与将通过海报会议，展示早期职业研究人员的工作，以及职业和导师小组来促进。里士满几何节的前两个（虚拟）版本于2021年和2022年举行。这些事件展示了纽结理论、代数几何和弦理论的新趋势，并强调了辫子簇、霍瓦诺夫同伦、复杂的陈-西蒙斯理论、链接格同调和家族中的格罗莫夫-威滕/唐纳森-托马斯对应研究中的相互关系。第三版的里士满几何节将提供一个人的场所传播的最新成果，在这一令人兴奋的研究线。 更多信息可以在里士满几何节网站上找到：https://sites.google.com/vcu.edu/gtmp/festival.This奖反映了NSF的法定使命，并已被认为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。

This award supports the Richmond Geometry Festival: Knots, Moduli, and Strings taking place between June 2-4, 2023, at Virginia Commonwealth University in Richmond, VA. This conference aims at bringing together specialists in two research fields: low-dimensional topology and algebraic geometry from various career stages and from a variety of institutions. In addition to lectures by internationally recognized experts, vertically integrated participation will be fostered by a poster session, featuring work by early-career researchers, and a Career and Mentorship Panel.The first two (virtual) editions of the Richmond Geometry Festival were held in 2021 and 2022. These events showcased new trends in knot theory, algebraic geometry, and string theory, and emphasized interrelationships in the study of braid varieties, Khovanov homotopy, complex Chern-Simons theory, link lattice homology, and the Gromov-Witten/Donaldson-Thomas correspondence in families. The third edition of the Richmond Geometry Festival will provide an in-person venue for dissemination of the most recent results in this exciting line of research.
