The 2009 Georgia International Topology Conference will be held at the University of Georgia in Athens, GA, from May 18 - 29, 2009. Since 1961, topologists at the University of Georgia have organized and hosted a major two week long international topology conference every 8 years. The 1961, 1969, 1977, 1985, 1993 and 2001 conferences came at times when fundamental new ideas were surfacing that set the direction of research in topology in the following years. Our conferences highlighted these ideas and focused attention on new promising directions of research. We aim to do the same with the 2009 conference, by highlighting exciting new developments, including advances in Heegaard Floer homology, contact and symplectic topology, broken Lefschetz fibrations, hyperbolic three-manifolds, applications of Ricci flow, quantum invariants of knots and links, and other new developments.The purpose of the 2009 conference is to have the most important results obtained during the last few years in geometric topology and related geometry presented to a wide topological audience and to be a place for communication and interchange of new ideas. Our conference has historically generated great interest among established researchers, but also among graduate students and recent PhD's. We have always paid special attention to inviting young researchers in topology to speak. The combination of speakers and topics to be presented will offer students and fresh PhD's a great opportunity to listen to and interact with the leaders in the subject as well as with successful mathematicians at the beginning of their careers. We will publish a proceedings, similar to those published by Prentice-Hall in 1961, Markam in 1969, Academic Press in 1977, Dekker in 1985, AMS and International Press in 1997, and AMS in 2003. Previous proceedings of the Georgia Topology Conference have been among the best of any conference proceedings. To continue the tradition, we will invite all speakers to submit articles, and we will enlist conference participants to help review submitted articles for the proceedings.

2009年乔治亚国际拓扑会议将于2009年5月18日至29日在佐治亚州雅典的乔治亚大学举行。自1961年以来，乔治亚大学的拓扑学家每8年组织并主办一次为期两周的国际拓扑会议年。 1961年、1969年、1977年、1985年、1993年和2001年的会议召开时，基本的新思想不断涌现，为随后几年的拓扑学研究方向奠定了基础。我们的会议强调了这些想法，并将注意力集中在新的有前途的研究方向上。我们的目标是在 2009 年会议上做同样的事情，重点介绍令人兴奋的新进展，包括 Heegaard Floer 同调、接触和辛拓扑、破断 Lefschetz 纤维、双曲三流形、Ricci 流的应用、结和链的量子不变量的进展，以及其他新进展。2009 年会议的目的是将过去几年在几何拓扑和相关几何领域取得的最重要成果呈现给学术界广泛的拓扑受众，并成为沟通和交流新思想的场所。我们的会议历来引起了知名研究人员、研究生和新近博士生的极大兴趣。我们一直特别注重邀请拓扑学领域的年轻研究人员发言。演讲者和演讲主题的结合将为学生和应届博士生提供一个绝佳的机会，让他们聆听该学科的领导者以及职业生涯初期的成功数学家的演讲并与他们互动。我们将出版一份会议记录，类似于 Prentice-Hall 于 1961 年、Markam 于 1969 年、Academic Press 于 1977 年、Dekker 于 1985 年、AMS 和 International Press 于 1997 年以及 AMS 于 2003 年出版的会议记录。是所有会议记录中最好的。为了延续这一传统，我们将邀请所有演讲者提交文章，并且我们将招募会议参与者帮助审查提交的论文集文章。
