Santa Barbara Summer Conference in Geometry
Santa
Barbara July 21-24,
1999
 |
The main goals of the conference are twofold: first, bringing together
the leading experts, to survey the recent remarkable progress in geometry
and topology, to report the current developments, and to point to new directions
of research; seocnd, further stimulating the fruitful interactions between
mathematics and physics. For these purposes, the conference is coordinated
with the three-week program "Workshop
on Geometry and Physics" from July 26 to August 13, in the Institute
of Theoretic Physics, UCSB. To help defray the cost of attending the conference,
funding
from NSF and UCSB is available for participants, with priorities
given to graduate students and young mathematicians without research
grants.
