    Contemporary Mathematics
    Volume: 5602011; 196 pp
    MSC: Primary 57; 46; 20; 14

    This volume contains the proceedings of a conference held from June 4–6, 2010, at Oklahoma State University, in honor of William (Bus) Jaco's 70th birthday. His contributions to research in low dimensional geometry and topology and to the American mathematical community, especially through his work for the American Mathematical Society, were recognized during the conference.

    The focus of the conference was on triangulations and geometric structures for three-dimensional manifolds. The papers in this volume present significant new results on these topics, as well as in geometric group theory.

    Readership

    Graduate students and research mathematicians interested in geometry and topology of 3-manifolds and geometric group theory.
