Résumé: The purpose of the workshop is to bring together mathematicians, physicists, and students interested in the interaction between topology and physics. Six invited lectures will describe various classical and current aspects of this interaction at a level appropriate to an audience of non-specialists. Poster sessions and extended discussion periods will provide the opportunity for participants to exchange ideas and establish contacts and collaborations.

Résumé: This conference, in honor of the 70th birthday of Herman Gluck, will address two topics in the application of geometry to other fields: (1) calibrated geometry and its applications to physics; (2) the application of geometry to knot theory, including topics such as Freedman's Mobius energy and Nabutovsky's ropelength.

Résumé: This workshop, sponsored by AIM and the NSF, will be devoted to the 3D Euler equations of incompressible fluids and the 2D surface quasi-geostrophic (QG) equation of geophysical flows.

Résumé: The workshop will feature minicourses in hyperbolic geometry, quantum topology and number theory given by world renowned experts and is aimed at graduate students and recent PhD's. Support is available for the workshop and conference participants mainly in the form of housing. We also expect to provide partial travel support. Funding is provided by the NSF through an FRG grant. Detailed information about support, speakers and participants will be announced soon on the conference homepage.
