Mathematical Sciences: Algebraic, Geometric and Combinatorial Structures Related to Hypergeometric Functions

该奖项支持A教授的研究。泽列温斯基 研究多元超几何函数在 代数、几何和组合结构 特别是， 他打算用这些技术来研究代数簇， 凸多面体和构造性表示理论。 该研究是在组合学的一般领域。 组合数学试图找到有效的方法来研究如何 可以组织对象的离散集合。 所以， 对现代通信非常重要，例如 大型网络的设计，如电话系统和 计算机科学中的算法

This award supports the research of Professor A. Zelevinsky to work on applications of multivariate hypergeometric function to algebraic, geometric and combinatorial structures. In particular, he intends to use these techniques to study algebraic varieties, convex polytopes and constructive representation theory. The research is in the general area of combinatorics. Combinatorics attempts to find efficient methods to study how discrete collections of objects can be organized. And, so it is extremely important to modern communications, for example the design of large networks as in telephone systems and the design of algorithms in computer science.
