This award supports U.S. participants in the conference entitled, "Geometric Control and Nonsmooth Analysis," to be held June 2006 in Rome, Italy. This is an interdisciplinary conference that is comprised of over thirty talks by prominent researchers in control theory and nonlinear analysis from seven countries. Topics include Hamilton-Jacobi equations, controllability of nonlinear partial differential equations, set-valued differentials, stabilization, and variational analysis. The conference features cutting edge research topics that were pioneered and greatly impacted by H. Hermes and R. T. Rockafellar, who will be featured speakers. The meeting is held over four days and includes plenary talks by prominent mathematicians and control engineers, shorter lectures by young and emerging researchers, and moderated discussions on open problems.The research themes of the conference are control theory and optimization, which provide the theoretical foundations that underlie many modern technologies including aeronautics, biomathematics, communications, manufacturing, models of climate change, and many others. They lie at the interface between real-world applications and abstract mathematical theory required for the development of effective models. This conference actively promotes interdisciplinary opportunities for young researchers and graduate students interested in applied controls and optimization to interact with the established control and nonsmooth analysis communities. A sizable portion of this award provides support to graduate students, postdoctoral researchers, and members of under-represented groups without other means of travel support that allows them to participate in the conference. The intellectual merit is the placement of an intellectual landmark in the advancement of knowledge, comprehension, and interaction between the engineering and mathematical control theory communities. Broad dissemination of the conference papers will be assured through the publication of proceedings by a major publisher.

该奖项支持美国参加将于2006年6月在意大利罗马举行的题为“几何控制和非光滑分析”的会议。 这是一个跨学科的会议，由来自七个国家的控制理论和非线性分析领域的杰出研究人员组成。 主题包括哈密尔顿雅可比方程，非线性偏微分方程的可控性，集值微分，稳定化和变分分析。 会议的特点是前沿的研究课题，是由H。爱马仕和R. T.罗克费勒，谁将是特色发言人。 会议为期四天，包括著名数学家和控制工程师的全体会议，年轻和新兴研究人员的简短演讲，以及对开放问题的主持讨论。会议的研究主题是控制理论和优化，为许多现代技术提供理论基础，包括航空，生物数学，通信，制造，气候变化模型，和其他许多人. 它们位于现实世界应用程序和开发有效模型所需的抽象数学理论之间的界面。 本次会议积极促进对应用控制和优化感兴趣的年轻研究人员和研究生与已建立的控制和非光滑分析社区互动的跨学科机会。 该奖项的相当大一部分为研究生，博士后研究人员和代表性不足的团体成员提供支持，而没有其他旅行支持手段，使他们能够参加会议。智力价值是在知识，理解和工程和数学控制理论社区之间的互动进步的智力里程碑的位置。 将通过一家主要出版商出版会议记录来确保会议文件的广泛传播。
