Conference: Richmond Geometry Meeting: Knots, Moduli, and Strings

该奖项支持将于2023年6月2日至4日在弗吉尼亚州里士满的弗吉尼亚联邦大学举行的里士满几何节：节，模量和弦。该会议旨在汇集两个研究领域的专家：来自不同职业阶段和各种机构的低维拓扑和代数几何。除了国际知名专家的讲座外，垂直整合的参与将通过海报会议来促进，其中包括早期职业研究人员的工作，以及职业和指导小组。前两届（虚拟）里士满几何节分别于2021年和2022年举行。这些事件展示了结理论、代数几何和弦理论的新趋势，并强调了编织变体、Khovanov同伦、复chen - simons理论、链接格同调和家庭中的Gromov-Witten/Donaldson-Thomas对应研究中的相互关系。第三届里士满几何节将提供一个面对面的场所，传播这一令人兴奋的研究领域的最新成果。更多的信息可以在里士满几何节网站上找到：https://sites.google.com/vcu.edu/gtmp/festival.This奖反映了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的评估被认为值得支持。

This award supports the Richmond Geometry Festival: Knots, Moduli, and Strings taking place between June 2-4, 2023, at Virginia Commonwealth University in Richmond, VA. This conference aims at bringing together specialists in two research fields: low-dimensional topology and algebraic geometry from various career stages and from a variety of institutions. In addition to lectures by internationally recognized experts, vertically integrated participation will be fostered by a poster session, featuring work by early-career researchers, and a Career and Mentorship Panel.The first two (virtual) editions of the Richmond Geometry Festival were held in 2021 and 2022. These events showcased new trends in knot theory, algebraic geometry, and string theory, and emphasized interrelationships in the study of braid varieties, Khovanov homotopy, complex Chern-Simons theory, link lattice homology, and the Gromov-Witten/Donaldson-Thomas correspondence in families. The third edition of the Richmond Geometry Festival will provide an in-person venue for dissemination of the most recent results in this exciting line of research.
