The 46th Annual Spring Topology and Dynamical Systems Conference

第46届春季拓扑和动力系统年会将由罗兹学院和墨西哥国立自治大学(UNAM)主办。会议将于2012年3月22日星期四至3月24日星期六在墨西哥城市中心的UNAM大学设施举行。将提供连续体理论、动力系统、几何群论/几何拓扑学、低维拓扑学和集合论拓扑学等专题会议，以及6次全体会议和12次半全体会议，涵盖特别会议的广度。会议由特别会议组织委员会、会议指导委员会、当地组织者和赠款调查人员组织。除了被邀请的演讲者外，这笔资金还用于资助研究生和年轻研究人员的旅行。这一系列会议是数学领域持续时间最长的会议之一。1967年春，第一次会议在亚利桑那州立大学举行，主要是关于一般拓扑学和连续统理论的会议。在过去的45年里，会议的规模和范围都有所扩大。它仍然是今年集合论拓扑学和连续统理论中最重要的会议，同时扩展到动力系统、几何群论和几何拓扑学的领域。多年来，大会特别努力扩大妇女、代表性不足的群体、研究生和年轻研究人员的参与，同时扩大到涵盖更广泛的拓扑学部分。许多过去45年来最著名的成果都是在这次会议上首次宣布的。会议记录将发表在经过评审的期刊《拓扑进展》上。会议网站：http://www.matem.unam.mx/STDC2012/

The 46th Annual Spring Topology and Dynamical Systems Conference will be hosted by Rhodes College and la Universidad Nacional Autonoma de Mexico (UNAM). The conference will be held from Thursday March 22 to Saturday March 24, 2012 at UNAM university facilities in downtown Mexico City. Special sessions will be offered in Continuum Theory, Dynamical Systems, Geometric Group Theory/Geometric Topology, Low-dimensional Topology and Set-theoretic Topology, as well as six plenary talks and 12 semi-plenary talks covering the breadth of the special sessions. The conference is organized by the special session organizing committees, the conference steering committee, local organizers and the investigators on the grant. The grant provides funds to support travel for graduate students and young researchers, in addition to the invited speakers.The series of conferences is one of the longest running in mathematics. In the spring of 1967, the first conference was held at Arizona State University, and it was primarily a conference on general topology and continuum theory. In the past 45 years, the conference has grown in size and scope. It has continued to be the most important conference of the year in set-theoretic topology and continuum theory, while expanding to include the areas of dynamical systems, geometric group theory, and geometric topology. Over the years, the conference has made special efforts to broaden participation by women, underrepresented groups, graduate students, and young researchers, while expanding to cover a broader section of topology. Many of the most famous results of the last 45 years have been first announced at this conference. The conference proceedings will be published in the refereed journal Topology Proceedings.Conference website: http://www.matem.unam.mx/STDC2012/
