The National Science Foundation Directorate for Mathematical and Physical Sciences awarded Kansas State University $251,327 on September 1, 2026, under the Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049) to support research in quasiconformal geometry of random and deterministic spaces. The project investigates conformal and quasiconformal mappings in spaces arising from complex analysis, geometric function theory, probability, and low-dimensional topology. The work emphasizes uniformization, rigidity, removability, conformal dimension, and the geometry of Riemann surfaces and metric spaces. Research addresses when complicated geometric spaces admit conformal or quasiconformal parametrizations by standard models and when such parametrizations are unique. The project studies both deterministic spaces with complicated boundary structures and random fractal spaces generated by stochastic processes, developing analytic and geometric tools centered on curve families, modulus methods, and large-scale geometry. Expected contributions include new mapping and rigidity theorems, counterexamples in quasiconformal geometry, and deeper understanding of modulus and metric geometry in uniformization problems. The project supports training of students and early-career researchers through research mentoring, seminars, and dissemination of results. Performance occurs in Manhattan, Kansas. The period of performance runs from September 1, 2026, through August 31, 2029.
