Categorification and low-dimensional topology Link homology is a young and rapidly-developing area drawing on many branches of mathematics. The subject has its roots in representation theory, and it has benefitted from its interactions with low-dimensional, classical, and quantum topology and symplectic geometry. Indeed, several recent developments have underscored the close parallels between link homology and Floer homological invariants for low-dimensional manifolds. The aim of this conference will be to study recent advances in categorification, link homology, Heegaard Floer homology, and gauge theory. We will also focus on the interactions of these tools with low-dimensional topology, including knot theory and contact geometry. Accomodations: A block of rooms has been reserved at the Rose Garden Inn. Reservations may be made by calling 1-800-992-9005 OR directly on their website.
