This conference is made possible by the generous support of the National Science Foundation under DMS-1902154 and DMS-1902108, and by the UGA Department of Mathematics.

 Some Practical information: 

  Travel

The University of Georgia is in Athens, approximately 75 miles northeast of Atlanta.  To get to Athens, fly to the Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport (ATL).

You can then get a shuttle to Athens through Groome Transportation, which will take you directly to your hotel and return back to ATL.  Reservations are strongly recommended. For the return trip, decide for yourself at what time you need to be at ATL; Groome tends to overestimate.

The venue

The talks will take place at the Department of Mathematics, in the Boyd Research and Education Center, room 323.

Parking

There is a parking deck just a few blocks from the math department where the talks will be held. It costs about $10/day. During evenings and weekends you can park anywhere on campus (except the parking deck) at no cost. There are several parking lots right next to the department.
