This award supports the "2018 Spring Redbud Topology Conference", to be held on April 28-29, 2018 on the campus of Oklahoma State University in Stillwater, Oklahoma. The confernece will be preceded by a one-day graduate workshop to be held on April 27. The conference will bring together experts in the fields of 3-manifold and 4-manifold topology -- i.e., features(like 'holes') that remain unchanged when these spaces are bent or stretched -- to discuss natural ways of breaking these objects into more well understood pieces. The list of committed speakers includes researchers based in Australia, Asia and the US. This award will provide funding for their travel as well as US based graduate students and other early career mathematicians wishing to attend the meetings.Two main areas of research will be presented at the Spring 2018 conference, namely triangulations of 3- and 4-manifolds and trisections, a recently introduced combinatorial decomposition of 4-manifolds. In the triangulations thread, the focus will be on current algorithmic questions related to 3-manifold topology. We will also focus on recent developments in trisections, including basic constructions of trisections arising from gluing, invariants which can be calculated from trisections, and applications of trisections in mathematical physics. By bringing these groups of experts together, participants will explore and extend very recently discovered connections between 4-dimensional trisections and triangulations. Ten speakers will be featured during the conference as well as introductory talks during the graduate workshop.

该奖项支持将于2018年4月28日至29日在俄克拉荷马州斯蒂尔沃特的俄克拉荷马州立大学校园举行的“ 2018 Spring Redbud拓扑会议”。 会议将于4月27日举行为期一天的研究生研讨会。会议将在3个Ma​​nifold和4个Manifold拓扑的领域中汇集专家，即，当这些空间是弯曲或伸展的方式时，这些功能（例如“孔”）保持不变，以讨论将这些物体理解的自然方法，使这些物体更加了解这些物体。忠诚的演讲者名单包括位于澳大利亚，亚洲和美国的研究人员。该奖项将为他们的旅行以及美国的研究生和其他希望参加会议的早期职业数学家提供资金。研究的主要领域将在2018年春季会议上介绍，即3岁和4个manifolds and Trisections，这是最近引入的4-manifolds组合分解的三角形。在三角形线程中，重点将放在与3个Manifold拓扑有关的当前算法问题上。 我们还将重点关注三触角的最新发展，包括由粘合，不变性产生的基本构造，可以根据三触角计算出来，以及数学物理学中的三触角的应用。通过将这些专家组召集在一起，参与者将探索并扩展了最近发现的4维三触角和三角剖分之间的联系。会议期间将有十名演讲者以及研究生研讨会期间的介绍性演讲。会议网页可以在以下网页上找到：http：//math.okstate.edu/conferences/redbud/this Award反映了NSF的法定任务，并被认为是值得通过基金会的知识分子优点和更广泛影响的评估审查标准来通过评估来获得支持的。
