The proposal is to support the participation of US researchers in a 5 day (week-long) conference on singular solutions of various problems in partial differential equations and the calculus of variations to be held at the Centre de Recherches Mathematiques in Montreal. This is an exciting area of current research in nonlinear analysis. Singular solutions arise in many applications including the theory of vortices, in geometry, in the theory of dislocations of liquid crystals and the theory of monopoles in quantum field theory. This grant will be used to support the expenses of US researchers who do not already have NSF support to attend this conference.

该提案旨在支持美国研究人员参加为期5天（为期一周）的会议，该会议将在蒙特利尔数学研究中心举行，主题是偏微分方程和变分法中各种问题的奇异解。这是当前非线性分析研究中一个令人兴奋的领域。奇异解出现在许多应用中，包括涡旋理论、几何理论、液晶位错理论和量子场论中的单极子理论。这笔资金将用于支持尚未获得美国国家科学基金会资助的美国研究人员参加本次会议的费用。
