Harvey Mudd College Mathematics Conference Series

自1999年以来，加州克莱蒙特哈维穆德学院的数学系一直在组织一系列年度数学会议。这些会议不同寻常，因为每年的主题都不同，旨在让教职员工、最近的博士后、研究生和本科生接触尖端数学，并通过促进学生和教职员工与会议参与者之间的互动来改善哈维·穆德学院的研究环境。自2004年以来，这些会议受益于国家科学基金会的资助，这使得会议扩大并吸引了全国观众。该奖项将继续为四位全体发言者和一次海报会议提供支助。它还将通过为研究生和新近获得博士学位的S提供旅行支持，进一步扩大会议的地域参与度，优先考虑代表性不足的群体的成员。每年秋天，通过将一流的研究人员带到哈维穆德学院，会议让与会者接触到广泛的数学知识。过去的课程包括分析、应用数学、微分几何、应用代数和组合学、数学生物学、几何、代数和系统发育树、科学计算和计数组合学。该奖项所涵盖的会议计划主题为公共部门运筹学、非线性分析和流体力学。这些会议引发了哈维穆德学院数学课程中的活动和项目，许多哈维穆德学院的本科生也出席了会议。这些会议还为南加州的数学家和数学学生提供了一个方便的聚会场所，促进了几个数学社区的互动和合作。通过社区范围的会议前讲座强调数学的影响和美丽，这些会议每年将影响近200人，鼓励数学研究，同时也加强了公众对数学的认识。

The mathematics department at Harvey Mudd College in Claremont, CA has been organizing a series of annual mathematics conferences since 1999. These conferences, unusual because the topics vary from year to year, have been designed to expose faculty, recent post-docs, graduate students and undergraduates to cutting-edge mathematics, and to enhance the Harvey Mudd College research environment by fostering interactions between its students and faculty and the participants of the conference. Since 2004, these conferences have benefitted from NSF grants which have permitted the conference to grow and attract a national audience. This award will continue to provide support for four plenary speakers and a contributed poster session. It will also further broaden the geographic participation in the conferences by providing travel support for graduate students and recent Ph.D.'s, with preference given to members of under-represented groups.By bringing topflight researchers to Harvey Mudd College each fall, the conferences expose participants to a wide range of mathematics. Past topics have included analysis; applied mathematics; differential geometry; applied algebra and combinatorics; mathematical biology; geometry, algebra and phylogenetic trees; scientific computing; and enumerative combinatorics. The planned topics for the conferences covered by this award are public sector operations research, nonlinear analysis, and fluid mechanics. The conferences give rise to activities and projects in mathematics courses taught at Harvey Mudd College, and many Harvey Mudd College undergraduates are in attendance. They also serve as a convenient gathering place for mathematicians and mathematics students in Southern California, fostering interaction and collaboration in several mathematical communities.With community-wide pre-conference talks that emphasize the impact and beauty of mathematics, these conferences will annually influence nearly 200 people, encouraging mathematical research while also strengthening public awareness of mathematics.
