Mathematical Sciences Research Equipment 1990

这是国家科学基金会数学科学部数学科学计划科学计算研究设备项目的一项资助。该计划支持购买专门用于进行数学科学研究的专用计算设备。这种设备是几个研究项目所需要的，很难单独为一个项目辩护。国家科学基金会的支持伴随着制造商的折扣和贡献，以及提交提案的机构的大量费用分摊。该项目是学术、企业和政府合作支持数学科学基础研究的一个范例。这台设备将用于支持康奈尔大学应用数学中心的三个研究项目：动力系统理论，研究员是古肯海默和菲利普·霍姆斯；统计学，图像处理，研究员是理查德·刘；三维几何，研究员是罗伯特·康奈利。

This is a grant under the Scientific Computing Research Equipment for the Mathematical Sciences program of the Division of Mathematical Sciences of the National Sciences Foundation. This program supports the purchase of special purpose computing equipment dedicated to the conduct of research in the mathematical sciences. This equipment is required for several research projects and would be difficult to justify for one project alone. Support from the National Science Foundation is coupled with discounts and contributions from manufacturers and with substantial cost-sharing from the institutions submitting the proposal. This program is an example of academic, corporate, and government cooperation in the support of the basic research in the mathematical sciences. This equipment will be used to support three research projects in the Center for Applied Mathematics of Cornell University: dynamical systems theory, the investigators are Guckenheimer and Philip Holmes; statistics of image processing, the investigator is Richard Liu; three dimensional geometry, the investigator is Robert Connelly.
