Virginia Operator Theory and Complex Analysis Meeting

本提案要求提供资金，以继续举办自1992年以来几乎连续举行的年度会议--弗吉尼亚算符理论和复杂分析会议(VOTCAM)。会议的目的是在未来三年内将会议从里士满大学转移到弗吉尼亚联邦大学(VCU)，延续这次极其成功的会议的传统，同时鼓励后起之秀的学术研究机构(现在是弗吉尼亚州最大的大学)VCU聘请来自弗吉尼亚州和其他地区的分析师。拟议中的会议的更广泛影响是建立了一个论坛，研究人员和研究生可以在支持环境中聚集在一起，分享想法并建立研究联系。VOTCAM允许来自各种不同分析领域的人们--从传统的算符理论和复杂分析到量子计算等非传统应用--在自己的研究领域之外了解更多关于该领域的知识。VCU是一所开放招生大学，致力于培养不同背景的学生，特别强调第一代大学生。这种多样性体现在数学本科生和研究生的构成上，他们中的许多人将被邀请作为学生与会者参加会议。

AbstractBeanlandThis proposal requests funding to continue the yearly meeting, Virginia Operator Theory and Complex Analysis Meeting (VOTCAM), which has been held almost continuously since 1992. The intention is to move the conference from the University of Richmond to Virginia Commonwealth University (VCU) for the next three years, continuing the tradition of this extremely successful conference while encouraging an up-and-coming academic research institution (and now the largest university in Virginia), VCU, to engage analysts from across Virginia and beyond. The broader impact of the proposed meeting is in establishing a forum where researchers and graduate students can come together in a supporting environment to share ideas and establish research contacts. VOTCAM allows people from a variety of different areas of analysis - from traditional operator theory and complex analysis to non-traditional applications such as quantum computing - to learn more about the field outside of their own research area. VCU is an open enrollment university dedicated to educating students of diverse backgrounds, with a particular emphasis on first generation college students. This diversity is reflected in the makeup of the undergraduate and graduate mathematics students, many of whom will be invited to participate in the meeting as student attendees.
