ABSTRACTPrincipal Investigator: Kahrobaei, Delaram Proposal Number: DMS - 0758054 Institution: CUNY New York City College of Technology Title: The Second New York Women in Mathematics ConferenceThe proposal requests funding for the New York Women in Mathematics Network (NYWIMN) Conference to be held at the New York City College of Technology (NYCCT), CUNY on May 2nd, 2008. The one-day conference will be the second in the series. The first NYWIMN Conference was held on December 9th, 2006 at the CUNY Graduate Center. The conference is being organized by Delaram Kahrobaei and Victoria Gitman of the NYCCT, who successfully organized the 2006 meeting. The conference will consist of invited talks by women mathematicians, a poster session by graduate and undergraduate women students, and a panel discussion of issues affecting women in mathematics. The meeting will be in the fields of algebra, combinatorics, and logic, with added emphasis on interdisciplinary research and establishing connections between mathematics and computer science. The organizers will focus on the areas of combinatorial, geometric, and computational group theory, applications of model theory to algebra and combinatorics, computational complexity, and set theory. All these areas are relatively new to mathematics. They have developed in response to the deep interconnections discovered in the last century between theoretical mathematics, algorithmic processes, and formalizing our notions of information. Because these areas are so young and so wide in scope and application, the most fascinating questions still remain to be answered. These questions will determine how theoretical mathematics and the world of modern technology will reinforce each other in the near future. The first objective of the conference is to advance our knowledge in these areas by supporting women mathematicians who work in them and promoting research collaboration among them. The second more global aim of the conference is to increase the participation of women in the mathematical sciences.

主要研究者：Kahrobaei，Delaram 提案编号：DMS - 0758054机构：纽约市立大学纽约市技术学院标题：第二届纽约妇女数学会议该提案要求为将于2008年5月2日在纽约市立大学纽约市技术学院（NYCCT）举行的纽约妇女数学网络（NYWIMN）会议提供资金。为期一天的会议将是该系列会议的第二次。第一届NYWIMN会议于2006年12月9日在纽约市立大学研究生中心举行。这次会议是由纽约商业贸易中心的Delaram Kahrobaei和维多利亚Gitman组织的，他们成功地组织了2006年的会议。会议将包括邀请女数学家进行的演讲，由研究生和本科生女学生举办的海报会议，以及关于影响数学领域妇女的问题的小组讨论。会议将在代数，组合学和逻辑领域，重点是跨学科研究和建立数学与计算机科学之间的联系。组织者将专注于组合，几何和计算群论，模型理论在代数和组合学中的应用，计算复杂性和集合论等领域。所有这些领域对数学来说都是相对较新的。它们的发展是为了回应上个世纪发现的理论数学、算法过程和形式化我们的信息概念之间的深刻联系。由于这些领域是如此年轻，范围和应用如此广泛，最迷人的问题仍然有待回答。这些问题将决定理论数学和现代技术世界在不久的将来如何相互加强。 会议的第一个目标是通过支持在这些领域工作的女性数学家并促进他们之间的研究合作来推进我们在这些领域的知识。会议的第二个更具全球性的目标是增加妇女在数学科学中的参与。
