Founded in 1989, the Texas Geometry and Topology Conference (TGTC) has been held spring and fall ever since, a total of 67 times to date. The TGTC was conceived as a mechanism by which both the educational and the research atmosphere of the community of geometers and topologists could be enhanced. In order to accomplish this, the TGTC is organized so as to accomplish three specific goals:

(1) The TGTC is committed to bring researchers of national and international stature to Texas to discuss their research and to interact with mathematicians from Texas and surrounding states.

(2) The TGTC provides the community of geometers and topologists from Texas and surrounding states a convenient forum to meet and share mathematics on a regular basis. The geographic region is so large that few reasonable alternatives exist. The conference strongly encourages both individual research and productive cooperative efforts between schools.

(3) The TGTC is committed to the strengthening and enrichment of the mathematics personnel base. Graduate students, junior faculty, women, minorities, and persons with disabilities are especially encouraged to participate.

This Conference is supported by the National Science Foundation. Among the speakers of the current 68th edition of the conference are

Ian Anderson, Utah State University ; Robert Bryant, Duke University; Jarosław Buczyński, Institute of Mathematics of Polish Academy of Sciences (IMPAN); David Fisher, Rice University; Mikhail Gromov, Courant Institute of Mathematical Sciences at NYU and IHES, (to be confirmed); Shelly Harvey, Rice University; Dmitri Pavlov, Texas Tech University; Jinmin Wang, Chinese Academy of Science.
