Conference: Tech Topology Conference at Georgia Tech

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日在亚特兰大格鲁吉亚理工学院举行的会议开始，这是该系列的第13次会议。这次会议为来自全国各地的拓扑学家提供了一个机会，他们可以在周末就该领域的最新发展进行会谈。演讲者是根据他们的成果质量、演讲技巧以及他们对促进多元化和包容性环境的贡献而选出的，从国际知名的数学家到冉冉升起的年轻明星。会议有七个小时的演讲，辅以三个闪电谈话会议，让初级研究人员有机会就他们的工作做五分钟的演讲。时间表包括与会者和发言者之间进行非正式讨论的充足时间，为指导和合作提供机会。该补助金将帮助支持研究生，早期职业研究人员和演讲者的旅费。今年的技术拓扑会议将集中在低维拓扑和接触/辛几何。这些都是非常活跃的研究领域，无论是在东南部和超越。该会议是一个机会，使领先的研究人员到东南部，并突出了该地区的初级研究人员获得的一些最新成果。会议组织者将继续在网上发布会谈记录，以便公开提供会议材料。会议网站可以在www.example.com上找到http://ttc.gatech.eduThis奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并被认为值得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来支持。

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.
