Conference Proposal: Wasatch Topology Conference

这项国家科学基金会奖支持未来三年每半年举行一次的Wasatch拓扑学会议。会议通常在8月中旬和12月中旬在犹他大学附近的一个地点举行。该系列赛的下一场比赛将于2018年8月15日至17日在德克萨斯州中途举行。会议有着悠久的传统，连续举行了近25年。传统、数学所代表的范围和非正式的环境相结合，使参与和与其他参与者互动成为一种独特的体验。多年来，数学的趋势是使用不同领域的方法来解决手头的问题。Wasatch拓扑学会议以涵盖动力系统、几何群论、几何拓扑学、Kleinan群、TeichMuller理论和二维和三维流形上的几何结构等主题而自豪。许多时候，会议将代表上述主题的组合，将来自不同领域的研究聚集在一起，他们可以在非正式的环境中分享想法。会议的网页是http://www.math.utah.edu/wtc/This奖，反映了美国国家科学基金会的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的智力优势和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。

This National Science Foundation award supports the semi-annual Wasatch Topology Conference for the next three years. The conference is typically held in mid-August and mid-December at a location near the University of Utah. The next one in the series will be held August 15-17, 2018, in Midway, UT. The conference has a long tradition, running continuously for almost twenty-five years. The blend of the tradition, the range of mathematics represented, and an informal setting make it a unique experience to participate and interact with other participants.The trend in mathematics, for many years now, is to use methods from different areas to solve problems at hand. The Wasatch Topology Conference prides itself in covering topics from dynamical systems, geometric group theory, geometric topology, Kleinian groups, Teichmuller theory, and geometric structures on two- and three-dimensional manifolds. Many times the conference will represent a mix of the above topics, to bring researches from different fields together where they can share ideas in an informal environment.The web page for the conference is http://www.math.utah.edu/wtc/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.
