This award supports the Richmond Geometry Meeting: Geometric Topology and Moduli scheduled for August 9-11, 2024, hosted at Virginia Commonwealth University in Richmond, VA. The conference is designed to unite experts in low-dimensional topology and algebraic geometry, spanning diverse career stages and affiliations. Beyond lectures delivered by internationally recognized experts, vertically integrated participation will be fostered by a poster session showcasing the contributions of early-career researchers and a Career and Mentorship Panel. The conference will investigate the intersection of low-dimensional topology, algebraic geometry, and mathematical physics. The roots of this interdisciplinary exploration trace back to Witten's groundbreaking work in the late 1980s and the emergence of the Jones polynomial in Chern-Simons theory. Since then, a landscape of profound connections between knot theory, moduli spaces, and string theory has emerged, due to the collective efforts of generations of mathematicians and physicists. Noteworthy developments include the deep ties between Heegaard Floer homology and the Fukaya category of surfaces, the intricate interplay revealed by Khovanov homology, and the correspondence of Gromov-Witten and Donaldson-Thomas theories. The study of moduli spaces of curves, as exemplified in Heegaard Floer homology, has played a pivotal role in several developments. The preceding three editions of the Richmond Geometry Meeting, encompassing both virtual and in-person gatherings, have showcased a wave of collaborative advancements in knot theory, algebraic geometry, and string theory. Topics such as braid varieties, Khovanov homotopy, link lattice homology, and the GW/DT correspondence in families have been explored, unveiling a nexus of interdependent breakthroughs. This award supports the fourth edition of the Richmond Geometry Meeting, providing a vital platform for the dissemination of the latest findings in this dynamic realm of research.

该奖项支持里士满几何会议：几何拓扑和模量定于2024年8月9日至11日，在弗吉尼亚州里士满弗吉尼亚联邦大学主办。会议旨在团结低维拓扑和代数几何专家，跨越不同的职业阶段和隶属关系。除了国际公认的专家提供的讲座，垂直整合的参与将通过展示早期职业研究人员和职业和导师小组的贡献海报会议促进。会议将探讨低维拓扑，代数几何和数学物理的交叉。这种跨学科探索的根源可以追溯到维滕在20世纪80年代后期的开创性工作和琼斯多项式在陈-西蒙斯理论中的出现。从那时起，由于几代数学家和物理学家的共同努力，纽结理论、模空间和弦理论之间的深刻联系出现了。值得注意的发展包括Heegaard Floer同调和福谷类曲面之间的深刻联系，Khovanov同调揭示的错综复杂的相互作用，以及Gromov-Witten和Donaldson-Thomas理论的对应关系。曲线的模空间的研究，例如Heegaard Floer同调，在几个发展中发挥了关键作用。里士满几何会议的前三个版本，包括虚拟和面对面的聚会，展示了一波在纽结理论，代数几何和弦理论的合作进步。主题，如辫子品种，Khovanov同伦，链接格同源性，并在家庭的GW/DT对应进行了探讨，揭示了相互依存的突破的关系。该奖项支持里士满几何会议的第四版，为传播这一动态研究领域的最新发现提供了一个重要平台。欲了解更多信息，请访问里士满几何会议网站：https://math.vcu.edu/rgmThis奖反映了NSF的法定使命，并已被认为是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。
