This volume contains the proceedings of the AMS Special Session on Geometry of Submanifolds, in honor or Bang-Yen Chen's 75th birthday, held from October 20-21, 2018, at the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, Michigan. The development of contemporary geometry of submanifolds benefited greatly from Bang-Yen Chen's contributions, as several interesting questions actively pursued today originate in his work. Chen is known for several fundamental ideas in differential geometry, including Chen inequalities, Chen invariants, Chen's conjectures, Chen surface, Chen-Ricci inequality, Chen submanifolds, Chen equality, submanifolds of finite type, and slant submanifolds. The papers in this volume represent a celebration of the geometry of submanifolds and its connections with other areas of mathematics and cover themes rooted in Chen's work, from investigations on the spectrum of the Laplacian on complete Riemannian manifolds to the geometry of symmetric spaces. These contributions are written with the hope to inform and inspire.
