Mathematical Sciences: Conference on Graph Labellings and Their Applications; March 1991; Boston, Massachusetts

图的标号理论及其应用是一门重要的数学学科。它与图论、组合学、群论和非结合代数相互作用。对优美有向图的研究导致了一种称为新域的非结合代数结构的构造。图标签在数学、计算机科学、工程学、运筹学和社会科学的其他分支中都有应用。这笔赠款将部分资助将于1991年3月在东北大学举行的关于图标号及其应用的会议。这次会议将由该领域的三位专家进行一小时的演讲，并将聚集更多的领先研究人员，他们将发表更短的演讲。将重点放在应用和可能与行业的互动上。会议的非正式结构将为年轻的研究人员和研究生提供一个极好的机会，让他们参与这一快速增长的领域。

The theory of graph labellings and their applications is an important mathematical subject. It interacts with graph theory, combinatorics, group theory and non-associative algebras. The study of graceful directed graphs leads to the construction of a non-associative algebraic structure called a neofield. Graph labellings has applications to other branches of mathematics, computer science, engineering, operations research and social sciences. This grant will partially support a conference on graph labellings and their applications to be held at Northeastern University in March 1991. The conference will feature hour talks by three experts in the field and will bring together additional leading researchers who will present shorter talks. There will be strong emphasis on applications and possible interactions with industry. The informal structure of the conference will provide an excellent opportunity for young researchers and graduate students to become involved in this rapidly growing area.
