This award will continue support to Professor Moncrief to carry out mathematical physics studies related to theoretical gravitation. The work to be carried out includes studies of cosmological singularities, the constraint equations for gravitation; and the study of phase space for general relativity. Professor Moncrief is one of the few investigators capable of making progress on the hard mathematical questions which arise from Einstein's theory of gravitation. This research will have important consequences for both theoretical physics and pure mathematics.

该奖项将继续支持Moncrief教授开展与引力理论相关的数学物理研究。将要开展的工作包括对宇宙奇点、引力约束方程的研究；以及广义相对论相空间的研究。Moncrief教授是少数几个能够在爱因斯坦引力理论所产生的数学难题上取得进展的研究者之一。这项研究将对理论物理和纯数学产生重要的影响。
