International conference & workshop on flat surfaces of infinite type

“无限型平面的国际会议和研讨会”将于2013年7月29日至8月2日在墨西哥国立自治大学莫雷利亚校区举行。这将是一个会议和研讨会，重点是动力学，几何，和无穷型曲面的解析性质。它将作为将于8月5日至9日在墨西哥瓜纳华托市举行的第一届美洲数学大会的卫星会议。会议旨在汇集来自不同领域的研究人员，他们一直在研究无限类型的表面，以便互动和分享各自领域的最新进展，希望资助一个新兴的理论，将不同领域的结果结合在一起。针对非专家和学生的两门迷你课程将介绍无限型曲面的最新发展：一门从动力学角度出发，另一门从复杂分析角度出发。有限型平面是一个非常丰富而深刻的课题，它是许多数学领域如分析、几何和动力系统的交叉点。所谓“有限型”是指这样的曲面可以用有限多个参数来描述。例如，甜甜圈和椒盐卷饼的表面是有限型的；它们的“有限性”来自于前者只有一个洞，而后者（通常）有三个洞。有限型平面的丰富理论现在已经被很好地理解了，所以在试图理解无限型平面的不同方面有了最近的发展。这次会议和研讨会将作为一个跨学科的平台，在研究无限型平面的不同性质的人们之间交流思想和产生合作，并向年轻的研究人员和学生介绍不同领域的最新发展。该奖项鼓励研究生、年轻研究人员和代表性不足群体成员的参与。

The "International Conference and Workshop on Flat Surfaces of Infinite Type" will take place in the Morelia campus of Mexico's National Autonomous University from July 29 to August 2, 2013. It will be a conference and workshop that is focussed on the dynamics, geometry, and analytical properties of surfaces of infinite type. It will serve as a satellite conference to the first Mathematical Congress of the Americas, which will take place August 5-9 in the city of Guanajuato, Mexico. The conference aims to bring together researchers from different fields who have been studying surfaces of infinite type in order to interact and share the latest advances in their respective fields with the hope of funding an emerging theory tying results in separate fields together. There will be two mini-courses aimed at non-experts and students about recent developments in at surfaces of infinite type: one from the dynamical perspective and the other from the complex analytic perspective.Flat surfaces of finite type is a very rich and deep topic and it is a point of intersection for many fields of mathematics such as analysis, geometry, and dynamical systems. By "finite type" we mean that such a surface can be described by finitely many parameters. For example, the surfaces of a donut and a pretzel are of finite type; their "finiteness" coming from the fact that the first has one hole, while the latter has (usually) three. The rich theory for flat surfaces of finite type is by now well-understood, so there have been recent developments in trying to understand different aspects of flat surfaces of infinite type. This conference and workshop will serve as a cross-disciplinary platform to exchange ideas and engender collaborations among people investigating different properties of flat surfaces of infinite type as well as to introduce young researchers and students to the latest developments of different fields. The award encourages the participation of graduate students, young researchers, and members of under-represented groups.
