Workshop/Conference on Representation Theory of Groups and Finite-Dimensional Algebras; August 4-13, 1993 Curacao, Netherlands Antilles

美洲项目奖将部分资助加勒比地区和拉丁美洲的数学家参加关于群和有限维代数表示理论的研讨会/会议的旅费。由加勒比数学基金会（CMF）赞助。讲习班将于1993年8月4日至13日在荷属安的列斯群岛的库拉索举行。组织者是佛罗里达大学盖恩斯维尔分校的豪尔赫·马丁内斯博士，协办人是佛罗里达大学的杰弗里·r·罗宾逊博士。工作坊将包括调查讲座，介绍群的表示理论和有限维代数。研讨会的主要目标是通过增加参与的年轻研究人员和学生的知识和背景，为该地区的数学发展做出贡献。这次讲习班/会议的论文集将出版，其中几卷将免费提供给该区域的个人和图书馆。该项目将汇集来自发达数学界的数学家及其来自加勒比地区和拉丁美洲的同行。演讲者中有几位杰出的数学家，他们处于该领域研究的前沿。从国际角度来看，其好处包括：为各国数学家之间未来的研究合作建立对话和交流；促进科学知识的国际交流；通过与发达国家的著名研究人员和数学研究所建立联系，加强本区域各国的数学基础设施。

This Americas Program award will partially support travel expenses of a group of mathematicians from the Caribbean region and from Latin America to a workshop/conference on representation theory of groups and finite- dimensional algebras, sponsored by the Caribbean Mathematics Foundation, (CMF). The workshop will take place in Curacao, Netherlands Antilles, August 4 - 13, 1993. Dr. Jorge Martinez, University of Florida, Gainesville, is the organizer, with Dr. Geoffrey R. Robinson, University of Florida as coorganizer. The workshop will consist of survey lectures, presenting an introduction to Representation Theory of Groups and Finite Dimensional Algebras. The main objective of the workshop is to contribute to the development of mathematics in the region by adding to the knowledge and background of the participating young researchers and students. The proceedings of this workshop/conference will be published, and several volumes of the work will be made available, free of charge, to individuals and libraries in the Region. The program will bring together mathematicians from the developed mathematical community and their colleagues from the Caribbean region and Latin America. Among the speakers are several eminent mathematicians who are at the cutting edge of research in the field. From the international perspective, benefits will include establishment of dialogue and communication for future research collaboration between mathematicians from different countries; promotion of the international exchange of scientific knowledge; and strengthening of the mathematical infrastructure of the countries of the region through linkages to prominent researchers and mathematical institutes in developed countries.
