2018 Young Topologists Meeting

这笔旅行补助金为美国参加2018年7月9日至13日由哥本哈根大学在丹麦哥本哈根举行的“2018年青年拓扑学家会议”提供部分支持。“青年拓扑学家会议”（YTM）是一个年度欧洲会议，专注于拓扑学研究生和早期职业研究人员的工作，吸引了来自世界各地的参与者。在YTM，初级拓扑学家介绍他们的工作，以大量的国际观众，也参加了小型课程由高级拓扑学家讲授。会议为与会者提供了结识新同事和导师的机会，并形成研究合作。其开放和支持的氛围鼓励早期的职业数学家，包括那些来自代表性不足的群体，追求拓扑学的研究事业。YTM是一项年度活动，首次于2007年开始，传统上在丹麦哥本哈根和瑞士洛桑之间交替举行（2017年除外，当时它在斯德哥尔摩举行）。会议的特点是由研究生和早期职业研究人员提供的平行会议，涵盖了广泛的拓扑学主题。除了这些会谈，将有两个高级拓扑学家的迷你课程，讨论代数拓扑和其他领域之间的联系，并专注于开放的问题和新的方向。今年迈克尔希尔（加州大学洛杉矶分校，美国）将给一个课程等变稳定同伦理论和凯瑟琳曼（布朗大学，美国）将给一个课程叶纤维束及其应用。会议网页可在www.example.com上获得http://www.math.ku.dk/english/research/conferences/2018/ytm2018.This奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并被认为值得通过使用基金会的知识价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估来支持。

This travel grant provides partial support for U.S. participation in the "Young Topologists Meeting 2018", held in Copenhagen, Denmark by Copenhagen University, July 9th-13th, 2018. The "Young Topologists Meeting" (YTM) is an annual European conference focused on the work of graduate students and early career researchers in topology, that brings in participants from all over the world. At the YTM, junior topologists present their work to a large international audience, and also attend mini-courses taught by senior topologists. The conference provides opportunities for the participants to meet new colleagues and mentors, and to form research collaborations. Its open and supportive atmosphere encourages early career mathematicians, including those from underrepresented groups, to pursue research careers in topology.The YTM is an annual event, first started in 2007, which traditionally alternates between Copenhagen, Denmark and Lausanne, Switzerland (except in 2017 when it was held in Stockholm). The conference features parallel sessions of contributed talks by graduate students and early career researchers, covering a broad spectrum of topics in topology. In addition to these talks, there will be mini-courses by two senior topologists, discussing the connections between algebraic topology and other fields, and focusing on open problems and new directions. This year Michael Hill (UCLA, US) will give a course on equivariant stable homotopy theory and Kathryn Mann (Brown University, US) will give a course on foliated fiber bundles and their applications. The conference web page is available at http://www.math.ku.dk/english/research/conferences/2018/ytm2018.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.
