An International Conference on Analytic Number Theory

该奖项部分资助了哈罗德·戴蒙德教授、布鲁斯·伯恩特教授和阿道夫·希尔德布兰德教授组织的一个涉及解析数论主题的会议。这次国际会议将于1994年5月在伊利诺伊大学的Allerton Park会议中心举行。这次会议将由世界各国领导人在解析数论方面发表演讲，并介绍其他数学家的最新工作。解析数论领域将微积分技术应用于整数的离散领域。微积分的发展是为了帮助分析连续的数学对象。使用连续方法研究离散物体的想法已有两个世纪的历史，但随着现代解析数学家的工作，该领域获得了新的新生。

This award partially funds a conference covering topics in analytic number theory organized by Professors Harold Diamond, Bruce Berndt, and Adolf Hildebrand. This international conference will be held May 1994 at the University of Illinois' Allerton Park Conference Center. The conference will feature talks by world leaders in analytic number theory and include presentations of the latest work of other mathematicians. The field of analytic number theory applies the techniques of calculus to the discrete realm of the whole numbers. Calculus was developed to aid the analysis of continuous mathematical objects. The idea of using continuous methods to investigate discrete objects is two centuries old, but with the work of the modern analytic number theorists, the field has had a new rebirth.
