Lehigh-Harvard Geometry and Topology Conference

该奖项为将于2017-2018年在哈佛大学(2017)和利哈伊大学(2018)举行的利哈伊-哈佛几何和拓扑学会议提供部分支持。会议的主要目的是让国内和国际几何和拓扑学领域的顶尖研究人员介绍他们的最新工作，讨论这些领域的前沿，并与来自该地区和全国各地的其他数学家互动。通过这种方式，它提供了一个很好的平台来促进几何和拓扑学领域的研究和提高知识。利哈伊-哈佛会议还使来自该地区和全国各地的几何学家和拓扑学家社区有可能了解最新的发展，相互会面和分享数学。通过会议的参与，研究生、博士后学者和代表性不足群体的成员可以接触到令人兴奋的几何和拓扑学研究，并有机会与该领域的专家互动。当会议在利哈伊举行时，除了受邀的演讲外，与会者还会留出相当多的时间进行40分钟的演讲(平行会议)，过去这种演讲很大一部分是由研究生、博士后和女数学家发表的。受邀的演讲者和其他高级研究人员也参加了这些贡献演讲，他们为演讲者提供了极好的反馈，特别是对初级教师和研究生。通过这种方式，利哈伊会议为研究生和新近的博士们提供了一个展示自己研究成果的绝佳机会。2017年几何与拓扑学会议将于2017年4月28日至5月2日在哈佛大学举行。会议将邀请几何、拓扑学及相关领域的知名专家共33场演讲：微分和辛几何、代数和复几何、几何分析和几何流动、几何拓扑学、数学物理、理论物理等。会议将重点介绍近年来几何和拓扑学中一些最令人兴奋的进展。这次会议的范围和众多的杰出演讲者使这次会议独一无二。参展是开放的，不收取注册费。特别鼓励研究生、新近的博士和代表人数不足的群体的成员参与并申请支持。2018年利哈伊几何与拓扑大会将集中讨论几何流。更具体地说，2018年6月举行的为期3-4天的会议将邀请6至8名顶尖专家进行全体讲座，概述几何流动领域的最新重大发展。除了几何流参与者的演讲外，还将为研究生和最近的博士提供背景讲座。有关利哈伊-哈佛几何和拓扑学会议的更多信息，请访问以下websites:http://www.math.harvard.edu/jdg/http://www.lehigh.edu/~dlj0/geotop.html

This award provides partial support for meetings of the Lehigh-Harvard Conference on Geometry and Topology, to be held during 2017-2018 at Harvard University (2017) and Lehigh University (2018). The main purpose of the conference is to bring leading researchers of national and international stature in geometry and topology to present their latest work, to discuss the forefront of these fields, and to interact with other mathematicians from the region and around the country. In this way, it provides a great platform to promote research and advance knowledge in the fields of geometry and topology. The Lehigh-Harvard conference also makes it possible for the community of geometers and topologists from the region and around the country to learn the most recent developments, to meet with each other and to share mathematics. Through the participation of the conference, graduate students, post-doctoral scholars and members of under-represented groups are exposed to exciting research in geometry and topology and have the chance to interact with experts in the fields. When the conference is held at Lehigh, in addition to invited talks, considerable time is set aside for 40-minute contributed talks (in parallel sessions) by the participants, and a large percentage of such talks in the past have been presented by graduate students, postdocs and women mathematicians. The invited speakers and other senior researchers also attend these contributed talks, and they provide excellent feedback to the speakers, especially for junior faculty and graduate students. In this way, the Lehigh conference provides an excellent opportunity for graduate students and recent PhDs to present their own research.The 2017 Conference on Geometry and Topology will take place at Harvard University from April 28 to May 2, 2017. It will feature a total of 33 invited talks by leading experts in many diverse areas of geometry, topology, and related fields: differential and symplectic geometry, algebraic and complex geometry, geometric analysis and geometric flows, geometric topology, mathematical physics, theoretical physics, etc. The conference will highlight some of the most exciting progress in geometry and topology in recent years. The scope and the large number of distinguished speakers makes this conference unique. Participation is open, and there is no registration fee. Graduate students, recent PhDs, and members from underrepresented groups are especially encouraged to participate and to apply for support. The 2018 Lehigh Geometry and Topology Conference will concentrate on geometric flows. More specifically, the 3-4 day conference, in June of 2018, will invite 6 to 8 top experts to give plenary lectures which will survey recent significant developments in the field of geometric flows. In addition to contributed talks by participants in geometric flows, there will also be background lectures for graduate students and recent PhDs.More information about the Lehigh-Harvard Conference on Geometry and Topology can be found at the following websites:http://www.math.harvard.edu/jdg/http://www.lehigh.edu/~dlj0/geotop.html
