Conference: Young Topologists Meeting 2022

2022年青年拓扑学家会议(YTM)将于2022年7月18日星期一至7月22日星期五在哥本哈根大学举行。YTM由两个主要部分组成：一方面是由杰出研究人员举办的三个小型课程，另一方面是由40个简短演讲和20个海报演示组成的阵容，其中大部分是研究生的演讲。作为世界上致力于代数拓扑学领域早期职业研究人员的最大会议之一，YTM为初级拓扑学家提供了一个独特的机会，让他们获得向广大观众发表会议演讲的经验，通过了解他们所在机构没有代表的子领域来拓宽他们的视野，向国际拓扑界展示他们的工作，并发展与其他早期职业研究人员的合作。此外，YTM寻求促进多样性，方法是邀请来自代表性不足群体和在拓扑学中代表性较差的大学的研究生演讲者，并为所有背景的学生提供一个友好和欢迎的社区。通过为美国参与者提供资金，NSF正在促进美国与国际拓扑界之间的科学思想交流，特别是为来自美国的学生和其他拓扑学家提供一个环境，让他们与未来的国际同行建立研究联系并发展关系，并支持多样性和包容性的文化。今年的三门迷你课程将是：(1)Andrew Blumberg的辛同伦理论，它将介绍Floer稳定同伦理论，着眼于他最近与Mohammed Abouzaid在Arnold猜想上的突破；(2)Natalia Castellana的分层和下降，围绕着她和合著者最近发表的一系列论文，关于代数拓扑和表示理论中各种感兴趣的余链上的模范畴的支撑-分层；以及(3)Robert Ghrist的胞叶理论，这将是应用拓扑学中的胞叶理论的速成课程，从元胞叶的基本材料开始，转移到拓扑数据分析的各种用例。这些迷你课程提供对当前活跃研究的主要子领域的介绍，并作为进入这些领域的门户，即使是对早期的研究生来说也是如此。参与者贡献的演讲和海报将涵盖拓扑学的广泛主题，跨越高等代数、同伦理论、几何和应用拓扑学。更多信息可从会议网站获得，https://www.math.ku.dk/english/calendar/events/ytm2022/This奖反映了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 Young Topologists Meeting (YTM) 2022 will be held at the University of Copenhagen from Monday, July 18, to Friday, July 22, 2022. The YTM consists of two major components: three mini-courses by distinguished researchers on the one hand, and a line-up of forty short talks and twenty poster presentations, mostly by graduate students, on the other. Being one of the largest conferences in the world dedicated to early career researchers in the field of Algebraic Topology, the YTM provides a unique opportunity for junior topologists to gain experience giving conference presentations to a wide audience, broaden their horizons by learning about subfields not represented at their institutions, expose their work to the international topology community, and develop collaborations with other early career researchers. Furthermore, the YTM seeks to promote diversity by featuring graduate student speakers from underrepresented groups and from universities that are less well-represented in topology and by providing a friendly and welcoming community for students from all backgrounds. By providing funding for US participants, the NSF is promoting the exchange of scientific ideas between the US and the international topology community, in particular providing a setting for students and other topologists from the US to make research connections and develop relationships with their future international colleagues, as well as supporting a culture of diversity and inclusion. The three mini-courses this year will be on: (1) symplectic homotopy theory by Andrew Blumberg, which will provide an introduction to Floer stable homotopy theory with an eye towards his recent breakthrough with Mohammed Abouzaid on the Arnold conjecture; (2) stratification and descent by Natalia Castellana, revolving around a recent series of papers by her and coauthors on the support-stratifications of module categories over cochains of various spaces of interest in algebraic topology and representation theory; and (3) cellular sheaf theory by Robert Ghrist, which will be a crash course on sheaf theory in applied topology, starting with basic materials on cellular sheaves and moving on to various use-cases in topological data analysis. These mini-courses offer introductions into major subfields of current active research, and serve as a gateway into these fields even for early graduate students. Participant-contributed talks and posters will cover a wide range of topics in topology, spanning across higher algebra, homotopy theory, geometry, and applied topology.
