This award furnishes travel support for U.S. participants in the Fourth International Symposium "Quantum Theory and Symmetries" (QTS-4), held near Varna, Bulgaria, August 15-21, 2005. The Symposium is a biannual meeting of physicists, mathematicians, and engineers studying mathematical aspects of symmetry relevant to physical applications. Topics of the meeting include Lie groups and Lie algebras, superalgebras, and quantum groups. The Symposium will include a workshop on "Lie Theory and Its Applications in Physics," the sixth in a series of international workshops on the topic. The meeting provides an opportunity for interaction between leading experts and junior researchers in important areas of mathematical physics. A special panel, "Quantum Theory and Symmetry in the XXI Century," is designed specifically to provide guidance to new researchers. The conference will provide a valuable opportunity for postdocs and students to learn about open problems in these areas and to establish international research collaborations. This award allocates significant funding to support participation of U.S. students and young researchers.Symmetry is arguably the most important concept that guides science in its exploration of nature. Symmetry ideas from mathematics provide structure in a wide range of physical theories. The periodic table of the elements, atomic spectral analysis, classifications of crystal structure, and models of elementary particles are all based on symmetries. Engineering applications such as tomography and signal processing, including wavelets, radar, and sonar, are intimately related to harmonic analysis, the expansion and analysis of functions on groups that reflect symmetry properties. This meeting will foster international research collaboration in this interdisciplinary field. Conference web page:http://theo.inrne.bas.bg/~dobrev/qts-4.htm

该奖项为参加2005年8月15日至21日在保加利亚瓦尔纳附近举行的第四届国际研讨会“量子理论与对称性”（QTS-4）的美国与会者提供旅费支持。 该研讨会是一年两次的物理学家，数学家和工程师的会议，研究与物理应用相关的对称性的数学方面。 会议的主题包括李群和李代数，超代数和量子群。 研讨会将包括一个关于“李学理论及其在物理学中的应用”的研讨会，这是关于该主题的一系列国际研讨会中的第六个。会议提供了一个机会，在数学物理的重要领域的领先专家和初级研究人员之间的互动。 一个特殊的小组，“量子理论和对称性在二十一世纪，”是专门为新的研究人员提供指导。 会议将为博士后和学生提供一个宝贵的机会，了解这些领域的开放问题，并建立国际研究合作。 该奖项分配了大量资金支持美国学生和年轻研究人员的参与。对称性可以说是指导科学探索自然的最重要概念。 来自数学的对称性思想为广泛的物理理论提供了结构。 元素周期表、原子光谱分析、晶体结构分类和基本粒子模型都是基于对称性。 工程应用，如层析成像和信号处理，包括小波，雷达和声纳，与谐波分析密切相关，谐波分析是反映对称性质的群上函数的扩展和分析。 这次会议将促进这一跨学科领域的国际研究合作。会议网页：http://theo.inrne.bas.bg/~dobrev/qts-4.htm
