This NSF award supports the Midwest Topology Seminar, from 2023 to 2026, a continuation of a previously supported regional conference series in algebraic topology that meets three times per year and rotates between universities in the Midwest and Great Lakes areas. The next two meetings are at Loyola University (March 2024) and Indiana University (Spring 2024). The Midwest Topology Seminar has been running continuously since the early 1970s, with at least one of the yearly meetings held in Chicago, the hub of the network, and is a long-standing, reliable, low-key, and low-cost way for participants to keep up with the field. The audiences are always large and diversified, drawing faculty and graduate students from a broad range of institutions. The Midwest Topology Seminar serves as a nexus for a vibrant community of research mathematicians, optimizing the distribution of new ideas through the field, especially among early career research mathematicians and mathematicians away from the traditional centers of research.The Midwest is a traditional and continuing center of algebraic topology; hence there is a strong source of local speakers. Programs are augmented with featured speakers from around the country. Algebraic topology has always been broadly construed to include homotopy theory, algebraic K-theory, geometric group theory, and high dimensional manifolds; more recently the series has explored connections to algebraic geometry, representation theory, number theory, low dimensional manifolds, and mathematical physics. Financial support will go to graduate students and research mathematicians with limited funds from other sources. The conference web site is http://www.rrb.wayne.edu/MTS/.This 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NSF奖支持了中西部拓扑研讨会，从2023年到2026年，这是代数拓扑的先前支持的区域会议系列赛的延续，每年每年三次开会，并在中西部和大湖区的大学之间旋转。接下来的两次会议是在洛约拉大学（2024年3月）和印第安纳大学（2024年春季）。自1970年代初以来，中西部拓扑研讨会一直在不断举办，至少在芝加哥举行的年度会议之一是该网络的枢纽，并且是一个长期，可靠，低调和低成本的方式，让参与者跟上该领域。观众总是大而多样化的，吸引了来自众多机构的教师和研究生。中西部拓扑研讨会是一个充满活力的研究数学家社区的联系，优化了通过领域的新思想的分布，尤其是在早期职业研究数学家和数学家中，远离传统的研究中心。因此，有强大的当地演讲者来源。来自全国各地的特色演讲者进行了计划。代数拓扑始终被广泛解释为包括同型理论，代数K理论，几何群体理论和高维流形。最近，该系列探索了与代数几何学，表示理论，数理论，低维流形和数学物理学的联系。 财政支持将向研究生和研究数学家提供其他资金，这些数学家的资金有限。会议网站是http://www.rrb.wayne.edu/mts/.This奖，反映了NSF的法定任务，并使用基金会的知识分子优点和更广泛的影响审查标准，认为值得通过评估来获得支持。
