Participation in the 1996 Summer School in Partial Differential Equations and Related Areas; Bogota, Colombia

这个美洲项目奖将资助五名美国数学家参加1996年7月22日至8月2日在哥伦比亚波哥大举行的1996年偏微分方程暑期学校的旅费和相关费用。组织者是Alfonso Castro博士，北德克萨斯大学和暑期学校将强调椭圆偏微分方程，量子群，数学生物学和特殊函数。每门课程的范围从入门背景到最先进的研究问题。该活动的目的是建立美国、哥伦比亚和外国数学家之间的关系，发现和鼓励对研究生工作感兴趣的年轻人才，并促进不同团体之间的研究合作。学员除美国和哥伦比亚外，还包括美洲其他国家：墨西哥、委内瑞拉和巴西，以及西班牙、新西兰、荷兰和德国的学员。因此，这为多国在研究和教育方面的合作提供了一个极好的机会。* * *

9631897 Castro This Americas Program award will fund travel and related expenses for five U.S. mathematicians to participate in the 1996 Summer School in Partial Differential Equations to take place in Bogota, Colombia, July 22-August 2, 1996. Organizers are Dr. Alfonso Castro, University of North Texas and The Summer School will emphasize Elliptic Partial Differential Equations, Quantic Groups, Mathematical Biology and special Functions. Each course ranges from introductory background to state of the art research problems. The aim of the activity is to establish relationships between U.S., Colombian and foreign mathematicians, discovering and encouraging young talent interested in graduate work and fostering research collaboration among different groups. Participants in the school include, besides U.S. and Colombia, other countries in the Americas: Mexico, Venezuela, and Brazil, as well as participants from Spain, New Zealand, Holland and Germany. Thus, this presents an excellent opportunity for multi-national cooperation in research and education. ***
