The National Science Foundation (NSF), Division of Mathematical Sciences, awarded a $180,000 Project Grant to the University of Oklahoma (award date: August 1, 2026; completion date: July 31, 2029) under the Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049). The grant funds research on surface homeomorphisms—the mathematical study of how surfaces can be continuously deformed without tearing or gluing. The project develops new theoretical frameworks and tools to classify and understand transformations on both finite and infinite-type surfaces, extending classical Nielsen-Thurston structure theorems and investigating pseudo-Anosov mapping classes, Thurston metrics on Teichmüller space, and the geometric properties of surface transformation spaces. The work addresses fundamental gaps in topology and geometry, particularly for infinitely complex surfaces where many questions remain unanswered. In addition to advancing mathematical research, the project delivers workforce development and community-building products, including training opportunities for graduate students and early-career researchers, mentoring programs, workshops, and collaborative research initiatives designed to foster an inclusive mathematical community. The research is conducted at the University of Oklahoma's Norman, Oklahoma campus and is structured around three interconnected research directions that build upon the principal investigator's prior work on tame and extra tame maps, invariant laminations, and measure-theoretic decompositions of surface dynamics.Federal Project Grant Award Summary
