Registration fees help support a wide range of activities associated with planning, organizing, and conducting these meetings.

  • Please note that that only AMS members with the emeritus membership type are eligible for the emeritus rate. If you are a life member and eligible for the emeritus rate, please check with AMS Customer Service to update your membership.
  • The member registration rate is available to any AMS Corporate Member employee who is not an AMS individual member. To receive this discounted registration rate, please contact mmsb@ams.org.
  • In the event that your abstract is not accepted or you have to cancel your participation in the program due to unforeseen circumstances, your registration fee will be reimbursed.

Register online and follow these steps:

  1. After clicking on "Register," you will be asked to enter your email address, and then log in to your account, or create a web account if you do not already have one. This only requires a username (email address), password, name, and address. If you already have a web account with us, please log in with your username (email address) and password. Please make sure that the email address that you are using is current, as we will send any pertinent updates to this email.
  2. Once you create and/or login to the account, continue on to register for the meeting. The same username and password may be used to register for all future sectional meetings.

Registering someone else: If you are planning to register someone else, verify that that person has an AMS web account. If they do not have a web account, please have them go to Register for a web account, or email AMS Customer Service to create one. You do not have to be a member to have an AMS web account. It is also possible that an AMS member does not have a web account, if they have never shopped at our bookstore, or registered online for a meeting. Ask for the email address associated with their web account, and use this to register them. When you click on the registration form, choose "Register Someone Else." Please first login with your personal AMS web account. If you do not have one, please create one. Enter the email address associated with your account, and then your password. The form will ask you if you want to register someone else, or yourself. Click "someone else," and enter the email address belonging to the person’s web account. Click on the green box that says "Check." Choose the person, and continue the registration.

We hope that you will find this system easy to use. Once your information is in our system, you will not have to enter your information for any future sectional meetings, unless it has changed, thus making your registration faster and easier. For any questions or concerns about this process, please contact the Mathematics Meetings Service Bureau.

Cancellations: Participants may cancel registrations made in advance by emailing the Mathematics Meetings Service Bureau. 100% refunds will be issued for any advance registrations cancelled by the end of the day (11:59 EDT) on October 24, 2025. After this date, no refunds will be issued for this meeting. However, if the AMS cancels this meeting, 100% refunds will be issued to every registered participant.

Participating in the Virtual Meeting

The Virtual Meeting Program will be located on the program page, under "Full Web Meeting App." Closer to the meeting, you will also be able to download a phone app. To participate in the meeting, you will sign in to the virtual meeting with your AMS web account, using the email address and password you used to register. Look for the words "Sign in" on the nav bar and also in the top left corner of the web Meeting App. On the webpage, the words "Sign in" will change to a small blue circle with your initials when you are signed in. Once signed in, you may join the zoom sessions.

The zoom links for each session will appear 20 minutes before the session starts.

You will also need to sign in to the Full Web Meeting App or to the phone app to view the videos of the recorded sessions after the meeting. If you need assistance signing in to the virtual meeting, or have any other questions during the meeting, send email to the Virtual Meetings Team.

The AMS will provide a limited number of reimbursement grants of US\$125 per family to help with the cost of child care for registered participants at the meeting. The funds may be used for any form of child care that frees a parent to participate more fully in the meeting. Grants will be awarded on a first-come, first-served basis, one per family, and one per season (i.e. Spring or Fall), the latter depending on the amount of grants available. Registration for the meeting as well as membership in the AMS is required to apply for this program.

See information about applying for child care grants. Applications will be accepted on a first-come, first-served basis until September 2, 2025.  Apply for a grant. Final decisions on recipients will be made on or before September 23, 2025.

Special Needs

It is the goal of the AMS to ensure that its conferences are accessible to all, regardless of disability. The AMS will strive to make all as accessible as possible.

If special needs accommodations are necessary in order for you to participate in an AMS Sectional Meeting, please communicate your needs in advance to the AMS Meetings Department by:

AMS Policy on a Welcoming Environment

The AMS strives to ensure that participants in the Sectional Meetings enjoy a welcoming environment. In all its activities, the AMS seeks to foster an atmosphere that encourages the free expression and exchange of ideas. The AMS supports equality of opportunity and treatment for all participants, regardless of gender, gender identity or expression, race, color, national or ethnic origin, religion or religious belief, age, marital status, sexual orientation, disabilities, or veteran status.

Harassment is a form of misconduct that undermines the integrity of the AMS, and its activities and missions.

The AMS will make every effort to maintain an environment that is free of harassment, even though it does not control the behavior of third parties. A commitment to a welcoming environment is expected of all participants of AMS activities, including mathematicians, students, guests, staff, contractors and exhibitors, and participants in scientific sessions and social events. To this end, the AMS will include a statement concerning its expectations towards maintaining a welcoming environment in registration materials for the Sectional Meetings, and has put in place a mechanism for reporting violations. Violations may be reported confidentially and anonymously to 855-282-5703 or on the website. The reporting mechanism ensures the respect of privacy while alerting the AMS to the situation.

MathSafe

MathSafe is a program by and for the mathematical community to support safe and welcoming meetings. MathSafe volunteers will be available at the meeting to listen to and guide participants who experience harassing behavior.

For assistance, come to the virtual Registration Desk. To speak to an ombudsperson directly or for assistance when the desk is closed, call (401) 455-4040.

The AMS strives to ensure that participants in the meeting enjoy a welcoming environment. See the Welcoming Environment policy above. A mechanism for reporting violations confidentially and anonymously is included in this policy.

Code of Conduct

The Code of Conduct (Code) applies to all participants at all American Mathematical Society (AMS) conferences, meetings, events, and other organized activities regardless of location or the capacity in which a person is attending, be it as an organizer, delegate, speaker, sponsor, exhibitor, or in any other capacity. Participants are expected to uphold the principles set out in the Code at all times during the event.

Broadcasting, Photographing, and Videotaping Policy

The recording or broadcasting of any AMS or joint-sponsored event, talk, and session by any other party is strictly forbidden without the explicit written permission of the AMS Executive Director or AMS Director of Meetings and Conferences. To obtain permission, send your request by email to Meetings to the attention of the AMS Director of Meetings and Conferences. Having submitted a request form does not constitute temporary authority, and approval will not be given orally. Please allow sufficient time for the approval process to be completed. Allow at least two weeks from time of receipt of request by AMS.

Photographs and videos of meeting interactions may be taken by professional photographers and videographers hired or arranged by AMS. These photographs and videos may occasionally be used for publicity purposes. By participating in the Sectional Meetings, participants acknowledge that their photograph or a video that includes them may be published in material produced by the AMS. AMS shall not be responsible for unauthorized photographs, videos, or other images not taken by professional photographers hired or arranged by the AMS.

Under no circumstances will anyone be permitted to take pictures or videos of a single person without that person’s permission.
