From Subfactors to Quantum Topology

《从子因子到量子拓扑学》会议将于2022年6月27日至7月1日在瑞士日内瓦举行。这些主题将涵盖低维拓扑中的量子不变量，子因子理论，以及它们与数学和理论物理的许多分支的联系。会议将由顶尖专家以及职业生涯早期的数学家进行演讲。许多讲座是面向广大听众的调查讲座，适合研究生和年轻数学家。该奖项为美国数学家提供部分旅行支持，特别是那些处于职业生涯早期阶段的数学家。会议将讨论量子不变量、拓扑量子场论、Khovanov和Heegaard Floer同调、体积、AJ、斜率和纽结箭图猜想、子因子和平面代数等主题。它将为分享相关领域的新成果提供场所；它将加强全球研究专家之间的合作和交流；它将向研究人员，特别是学生和职业早期研究人员介绍当前研究的重要领域。会议网站ishttps://www.nccr-swissmap.ch/news-and-events/events/subfactors-quantum-topology-memory-vaughan-jonesThis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。

The conference “From Subfactors to Quantum Topology” will be held in Geneva, Switzerland, June 27 - July 1, 2022. The topics will cover quantum invariants in low-dimensional topology, subfactor theory, and their connections to many branches of mathematics and theoretical physics. The conference will consist of talks by leading experts as well as early-career mathematicians. Many talks are survey talks directed to a wide audience and suitable for graduate students and young mathematicians. This award provides partial travel support to US-based mathematicians, particularly those in the early stages of their careers. The conference will address topics on quantum invariants, topological quantum field theories, Khovanov and Heegaard Floer homology, the volume, AJ, slope, and knot-quiver conjectures, subfactors, and planar algebras,. It will provide a venue for sharing new results in the related fields; it will increase collaboration and communication among research experts globally; and it will introduce researchers, especially students and early career researchers, to important areas of current research.
