This grant will establish at Mount Holyoke College, an Research Experiences for Undergraduates research site. Each summer for the next three years, twelve students will be engaged, in mathematical research. They will be drawn primarily from nearby colleges and universities and possibly from some schools further away. The students will work in groups of four, each group carrying out a different project under the supervision of a faculty member. The three research areas will be in algebraic geometry, partial differential equations, and statistics. They will involve extensive computer experimentation and will be directed at mainstream areas of mathematical research in which experimental evidence promises to illuminate, and possibly even overcome, current impasses in purely theoretical attacks. The groups will meet separately several times a day, but ample opportunity will be provided for students in different groups to exchange ideas. More specifically Dr. O'Shea will lead a project on limits of tangent spaces, Dr. Peterson will lead a project on evolution of planar domains and Dr. Gifford will lead a project on the use of bootstrapping in principal components analysis.

这笔赠款将在霍利奥克山学院建立一个研究 本科生的经验研究网站。 每年夏天， 在接下来的三年里，12名学生将从事， 数学研究 他们将主要从附近的 学院和大学，可能还有一些学校 距离 学生们将以四人一组的方式工作，每组 在监督下进行不同的项目， 教员。 这三个研究领域将在代数 几何学、偏微分方程和统计学。 他们 将涉及广泛的计算机实验， 针对数学研究的主流领域， 实验证据有望阐明，甚至可能 克服目前纯理论攻击的僵局。 的 小组将分别会见了几次，一天，但充足的 不同组别的学生将有机会 交换意见。 更具体地说，奥谢博士将领导一个项目， 关于切线空间的极限，彼得森博士将领导一个项目， 平面领域的演变，吉福德博士将领导一个项目， 在主成分分析中使用bootstrapping。
