2020 Redbud Geometry/Topology Conference

该奖项为2020年春季和秋季Redbud几何/拓扑会议提供资金，其中第一次会议将于2020年3月6日至8日在阿肯色大学举行。这些会议是正在阿肯色州和俄克拉何马州的大学举行的一系列会议的一部分，旨在增加该地区早期职业和成熟数学家之间的互动和合作。春季会议将邀请来自北美各地的知名演讲者进行演讲，并举办研究生研讨会。秋季会议将在俄克拉何马大学举行，主要由来自阿肯色州、俄克拉何马州及周边各州的早期职业数学家进行演讲。三流形拓扑中的许多问题本质上都是算法问题。最近在生成高效算法和复杂度下界方面取得了许多进展。2020年春季Redbud几何/拓扑会议将重点讨论三流形拓扑中的算法和有效问题。它将汇集领先的研究人员来讨论这些发展。特邀讲者包括：Ian Agol（加州大学伯克利分校）、Nathan Dunfield（伊利诺伊大学香槟分校）、David Futer（天普大学）、Susan Hermiller（内布拉斯加州大学）、Greg Kuperberg（加州大学戴维斯分校）、Marc Lackenby（牛津大学）、Eric Samperton（伊利诺伊大学香槟分校）、Eric Sedgwick（德保罗大学）、Jennifer Schultens（加州大学戴维斯分校）、Anastasiia Tsvietkova（天普大学）、William Worden（莱斯大学）。会议以一个研讨会开始，旨在提高研究生和初级研究人员的经验。研讨会将由Dunfield， Futer， Tsvietkova进行说明性演讲。更多信息可访问会议网站：https://mattclay.hosted.uark.edu/Redbud/This该奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并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，认为值得支持。

This award provides funding for the 2020 Spring and Fall Redbud Geometry/Topology Conferences, the first of which is to be held March 6-8, 2020 at the University of Arkansas. These conferences are part of an ongoing series of conferences held at universities in Arkansas and Oklahoma, intended to increase interaction and collaboration among early career and established mathematicians in the area. The Spring meeting will feature talks by prominent speakers from across North America, as well as a graduate student workshop. The Fall meeting will take place at the University of Oklahoma, and it will predominantly consist of talks by early-career mathematicians from Arkansas, Oklahoma, and surrounding states.Many problems in three-manifold topology are algorithmic in nature. There have been many developments recently, both in producing efficient algorithms and lower bounds on complexity. The 2020 Spring Redbud Geometry/Topology Conference will focus on algorithmic and effective questions in three-manifold topology. It will bring together leading researchers to discuss these developments. The invited speakers are: Ian Agol (University of California, Berkeley), Nathan Dunfield (University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign), David Futer (Temple University), Susan Hermiller (University of Nebraska), Greg Kuperberg (University of California, Davis), Marc Lackenby (Oxford University), Eric Samperton (University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign), Eric Sedgwick (DePaul University), Jennifer Schultens (University of California, Davis), Anastasiia Tsvietkova (Temple University), William Worden (Rice University). The conference begins with a workshop designed to enhance the experience of graduate students and junior researchers. The workshop will feature expository talks by Dunfield, Futer, Tsvietkova.
