29th Summer Conference on Topology and its Applications, July 23-26, 2014

第29届拓扑学及其应用夏季会议将于2014年7月23日至26日在纽约城市大学斯塔滕岛学院举行。受来自真实的世界的许多例子的启发，拓扑学是一个旨在研究空间形状的数学领域。它经常需要使用其他数学领域的工具，从而产生拓扑学中的各种子领域。会议的主要目标是将这些子领域的世界领先研究人员聚集在一起，并为一次全面的会议提供一个单一的论坛，这将促进跨学科研究方向和方法的交叉。邀请贡献的演讲将在六个特别会议：（1）不对称及其应用，（2）连续与应用，（3）叶，层，和吸引子，（4）几何拓扑，（5）集理论和一般拓扑，和（6）拓扑功能分析。 每次特别会议都有一名全体发言人、一名半全体发言人和20至25名其他发言人。除了特别会议外，会议还包括为研究生和其他感兴趣的与会者举办的两个讲习班。鼓励和支持妇女和其他代表性不足的群体成员的参与。 研究生和年轻的拓扑学家将获得大量的财政支持参加会议。会议网站：https://csivc.csi.cuny.edu/SumTopo2014

The 29th Summer Conference on Topology and Its Applications will be held July 23 - 26, 2014 at the College of Staten Island, City University of New York. Motivated by many examples from the real world, topology is a mathematical field that aims to study the shape of a space. It often requires the use of tools from other mathematical fields, giving rise to various subfields in topology. The main goal of the conference is to bring together a group of the world's leading researchers in these subfields and to provide a single forum for a comprehensive meeting, which will promote cross-fertilization of research directions and methods across several disciplines. Invited contributed talks will be presented in the six special sessions: (1) Asymmetry and its Applications, (2) Continua with Applications, (3) Foliations, Laminations, and Attractors, (4) Geometric Topology, (5) Set-theoretic and General Topology, and (6) Topology in Functional Analysis. Each special session features one plenary speaker, one semi-plenary speaker and 20 to 25 other contributed presentations. In addition to the special sessions, the conference includes two workshops for graduate students and other interested participants. Participation by women and members of other underrepresented groups is encouraged and supported. Graduate students and young topologists will receive substantial financial support to attend the conference.Conference web site: https://csivc.csi.cuny.edu/SumTopo2014
