This award provides partial support for two editions of the Tech Topology Conference, beginning with the meeting at Georgia Tech in Atlanta on December 8-10, 2023, the 13th conference in the series. The conference provides an opportunity for topologists from around the country to convene for a weekend of talks on the latest developments in the field. The speakers, selected for the quality of their results, their presentation skills, and their contributions to promoting a diverse and inclusive environment, range from internationally renowned mathematicians to rising young stars. The conference features seven hour-long talks, complemented by three lightning talk sessions, which give junior researchers the opportunity to give a five minute presentation on their work. The schedule includes ample time for informal discussions amongst participants and speakers, providing opportunities for mentorship and collaboration. The grant will help support the travel expenses of graduate students, early career researchers, and speakers.This year's Tech Topology Conference will focus on low-dimensional topology and contact/symplectic geometry. These are both very active fields of research, both in the Southeast and beyond. The conference serves as an opportunity to bring leading researchers to the Southeast and highlight the some of the recent results obtained by junior researchers in the region. The conference organizer will continue posting notes from the talks online in order to make materials from the conference publicly available. The conference website can be found at http://ttc.gatech.eduThis award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

该奖项为两个版本的技术拓扑会议提供部分支持，从2023年12月8日至10日在亚特兰大乔治亚理工学院举行的会议开始，这是该系列的第13次会议。会议为来自全国各地的拓扑学家提供了一个机会，在周末召开会议，讨论该领域的最新发展。从国际知名数学家到冉冉升起的年轻新星，演讲者都是根据他们的成果质量、演讲技巧以及对促进多元化和包容性环境的贡献而被选中的。这次会议的特点是长达7个小时的演讲，辅以3个闪电演讲环节，这让初级研究人员有机会就他们的工作发表5分钟的演讲。日程安排包括充足的时间供参与者和演讲者之间进行非正式讨论，提供指导和合作的机会。该基金将帮助支持研究生、早期职业研究人员和演讲者的旅行费用。今年的技术拓扑会议将重点关注低维拓扑和接触/辛几何。这些都是非常活跃的研究领域，无论是在东南部还是其他地区。这次会议提供了一个机会，把主要的研究人员带到东南部，并强调该地区初级研究人员最近取得的一些成果。会议组织者将继续在网上发布会谈笔记，以便公开会议的材料。会议网站可在http://ttc.gatech.eduThis上找到奖项反映了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。
