Principal Investigator: Gilbert BaumslagProposal Number: DMS- 0330802Institution: CUNY City CollegeTitle: New York Group Theory Seminar and Symbolic Computation WorkshopsAbstractThe New York Group Theory Seminar is the oldest, continuously running research seminar in the New York City area - some 48 years. It was started around 1955 by Wilhelm Magnus and currently is held, for the most part, on Friday afternoons, at the Graduate Center of the City University of New York under the direction of Gilbert Baumslag and Sean Cleary, of the City College of New York. The emphasis of the seminar is on Combinatorial, Geometric and Computational Group Theory. Many of the talks touch also on three-dimensional topology, homological algebra and theoretical computer science. There are usually 10 seminars each semester. A sprinkling of these seminars are expository and are sometimes combined with one-day or two-day long workshops or conferences.Groups are mathematical structures, which capture, in mathematical form, the nature of symmetry. It turns out, for this very reason, that they play an important role in crystallography, in particle physics, in geometry and in the study of the three-dimensional world that we live in. They are an important tool in many diverse mathematical disciplines as well as in theoretical computer science. Recently they have been used in cryptography, a field of enormous economic and strategic importance.

主要研究者：吉尔伯特鲍姆斯拉格提案编号：DMS-0330802机构：CUNY City CollegeTitle：纽约群论研讨会和符号计算研讨会摘要纽约群论研讨会是纽约市地区最古老的、持续运行的研究研讨会-大约48年。它是由威廉·马格努斯于1955年左右创办的，目前大部分时间是在星期五下午，在纽约城市大学的研究生中心举行，由纽约城市学院的吉尔伯特·鲍姆斯拉格和肖恩·克利里指导。研讨会的重点是组合，几何和计算群论。许多会谈也触及三维拓扑，同调代数和理论计算机科学。通常每学期有10场研讨会。这些研讨会中的一小部分是临时性的，有时会与为期一天或两天的研讨会或会议相结合。小组是数学结构，以数学形式捕捉对称性的本质。事实证明，正是因为这个原因，它们在晶体学，粒子物理学，几何学以及我们生活的三维世界的研究中扮演着重要的角色。它们是许多不同数学学科以及理论计算机科学中的重要工具。最近，它们被用于密码学，这是一个具有巨大经济和战略重要性的领域。
