Geometry Festival

几何学节自1985年以来每年在宾夕法尼亚大学、马里兰州大学、北卡罗来纳州大学、纽约州立大学斯托尼布鲁克分校、杜克大学和纽约大学的柯朗数学科学研究所举行。 这个为期三天的会议集中在几何和相关领域的主要最新成果。 通常有七个一小时的邀请演讲，没有平行会议，有足够的机会和空间让小组聚在一起讨论。 该奖项为研究生、博士后研究人员、特邀演讲者和代表性不足群体的人士出席会议提供部分支持。 几何艺术节的设施是无障碍的。 在最近的几次几何学展览中，为女数学家举办了特别活动。几何节于1998年4月2日至5日在斯托尼布鲁克的纽约州立大学举行，1999年4月16日至18日在宾夕法尼亚大学举行，并将于2000年4月14日至16日在马里兰州大学举行。 未来的地点大约提前一年决定。更多的信息可以在去年会议的几何节网站上找到，http：//www.math.upenn.edu/geometryfestival.html，以及即将到来的会议网站，http://www.math.umd.edu/research/geomfest。每个几何节的网站都包含一个链接到下一个节日的网站，一旦这是已知的。

THE GEOMETRY FESTIVALDMS-0072580The annual Geometry Festival has been held since 1985 at the University of Pennsylvania, the University of Maryland, the University of North Carolina, the State University of New York at Stony Brook, Duke University and New York University's Courant Institute of Mathematical Sciences. This three day conference focuses on the major recent results in geometry and related fields. There are typically seven invited one-hour talks, no parallel sessions, and ample opportunity and space for groups to get together for discussion. The award provides partial support for graduate students, post-doctoralresearchers, invited speakers and persons from under-represented groups to attend the conference. Facilities at the Geometry Festival arehandicapped-accessible. In several recent Geometry Festivals, there have been special activities for women mathematicians. The Geometry Festival was held April 2-5, 1998 at the State University of New York at Stony Brook, April 16-18, 1999 at the University of Pennsylvania, and will be held April 14-16, 2000 at the University of Maryland. Future sites are decided approximately one year in advance. Further information is available at the Geometry Festival websites for last year's conference, http://www.math.upenn.edu/geometryfestival.html, and at thesite for the upcoming conference, http://www.math.umd.edu/research/geomfest . Each Geometry Festival website contains a link to the website for the next Festival, as soon as this is known.
