The William Rowan Hamilton Geometry and Topology Workshop is an annual workshop held at the Hamilton Mathematics Institute, Trinity College Dublin in September/October. The inaugural workshop was held in 2005 as part of the celebrations of the bicentennial of the birth of William Rowan Hamilton. The mission of the workshop is to  provide a forum in which  the international geometry and topology community can meet annually to discuss topics of an interdisciplinary nature. A major anticipated outcome of these annual workshop is the determination of future research directions, and the generation of a list of open problems in the topics of focus. The problem lists and lecture notes from the workshops will be posted on this website. Furthermore, the HMI intends to have a preprint series, whereby hard copies of the workshop results can be disseminated to research institutions worldwide.
