This award provides partial support for three editions of the Tech Topology Conference, beginning with the meeting at Georgia Tech in Atlanta on December 7-9, 2018, the eighth conference in the series. The conference provides an opportunity for topologists from around the country to convene for a weekend of talks on the latest developments in the field. The speakers, selected for the quality of their results, their presentation skills, and their contributions to promoting a diverse and inclusive environment, range from internationally renowned mathematicians to rising young stars. The conference features seven hour-long talks, complemented by three lightning talk sessions, which give junior researchers the opportunity to give a five minute presentation on their work. The schedule includes ample time for informal discussions amongst participants and speakers, providing opportunities for mentorship and collaboration. The grant will help support the travel expenses of graduate students, early career researchers, and speakers.This year's Tech Topology Conference will focus on geometric group theory and low-dimensional topology. These are both very active fields of research, both in the Southeast and beyond; four of this year's seven speakers are based in the Southeast. The conference serves as an opportunity to bring leading researchers to the Southeast and highlight the some of the recent results obtained by junior researchers in the region. The conference organizer will continue posting notes from the talks online in order to make materials from the conference publicly available. The conference website can be found at http://ttc.gatech.eduThis award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

该奖项为三个版本的技术拓扑会议提供了部分支持，从2018年12月7日至9日在亚特兰大佐治亚理工学院的会议开始，该系列赛的第八次会议。这次会议为来自全国各地的拓扑师提供了一个机会，以召集有关该领域最新发展的周末。演讲者以其结果的质量，演示技巧以及对促进多样化和包容性环境的贡献，从国际知名的数学家到崛起的年轻明星。这次会议以七个小时的会谈为特色，并在三场闪电谈话会议上进行了补充，这使初级研究人员有机会在他们的工作中进行五分钟的演讲。时间表包括大量时间在参与者和演讲者之间进行非正式讨论，提供指导和协作的机会。该赠款将有助于支持研究生，早期职业研究人员和演讲者的旅行费用。本年度的技术拓扑会议将重点关注几何组理论和低维拓扑。这些都是在东南及其他地区的非常活跃的研究领域。今年的七个演讲者中有四位位于东南部。该会议是将领先的研究人员带到东南部并强调该地区初级研究人员最近获得的一些结果的机会。会议组织者将继续在网上发布谈判的注释，以便公开提供会议的材料。可以在http：//ttc.gatech.eduthis奖上找到会议网站，反映了NSF的法定任务，并使用基金会的知识分子优点和更广泛的影响评估标准，被认为值得通过评估来获得支持。
