String theories and conformal field theories have had a remarkable impact on mathematics, as well as having a profound effect in turning a generation of young theoretical physicists toward mathematics. The mathematical developments deriving from string theories and conformal field theories have been truly prodigious, with new applications from algebraic geometry, representations of infinite dimensional algebras, quantum groups, Riemann surfaces, non-commutative geometry, topology and knot theory. This grant will partially support a conference on Differential Geometric Methods in Theoretical Physics at Baruch College in June, 1991. In addition to attracting the world leaders in these areas, who will interact in a stimulating research atmosphere, this conference will provide undergraduates and honor high school students with the opportunity to participate in specially designed expository lectures and panel discussions with the assembled experts.

弦理论和共形场论对数学产生了显着的影响，也对一代年轻理论物理学家转向数学产生了深远的影响。 弦理论和共形场论的数学发展确实是惊人的，代数几何、无限维代数表示、量子群、黎曼曲面、非交换几何、拓扑和纽结理论都有新的应用。 这笔赠款将部分支持 1991 年 6 月在巴鲁克学院举行的理论物理微分几何方法会议。除了吸引这些领域的世界领导者在激动人心的研究氛围中进行互动之外，这次会议还将为本科生和荣誉高中生提供机会，与聚集的专家一起参加专门设计的说明性讲座和小组讨论。
