From June 15-27, 2009, a summer school will take place at the University of Ottawa in Ottawa, Canada. It will be followed by a conference from June 28 to July 3. Both the conference and the summer school will focus on the topics of geometric representation theory and extended affine Lie algebras. The summer school will be aimed at graduate students, postdoctoral fellows, and junior faculty working in the field of Lie algebras and will consist of six one-week courses spread over two weeks. The conference will bring together mathematicians working in the above-mentioned fields and will feature approximately 20 lectures by experts in these areas.The summer school will provide an excellent opportunity for young mathematicians to gain access to the active and flourishing fields of geometric representation theory and extended affine Lie algebras. While these topics are currently very popular among research mathematicians, they are not often taught in typical graduate courses. It is expected that the majority of students attending the summer school will stay for the conference to follow. The conference will expose students to current research related to the subjects of the courses they attended in the preceding two weeks. It will also bring together researchers in these fields and provide a forum for them to discuss their work. This grant supports participation of U.S. based mathematicians in both the summer school and conference. The majority of the funds will be used to support women, minority, and young scientists (including graduate students).

从2009年6月15日至27日，一个暑期学校将在加拿大渥太华的渥太华大学举行。 会议将于6月28日至7月3日举行。 会议和暑期学校都将集中在几何表示理论和扩展仿射李代数的主题。 暑期学校将针对李代数领域的研究生、博士后研究员和初级教师，将包括六门为期一周的课程，分布在两周内。 会议将汇集在上述领域的数学家，并将有大约20个讲座，由这些领域的专家。暑期学校将提供一个极好的机会，让年轻的数学家接触到活跃和蓬勃发展的领域，几何表示理论和扩展仿射李代数。 虽然这些主题目前在研究数学家中非常受欢迎，但它们并不经常在典型的研究生课程中教授。 预计参加暑期学校的大多数学生将留下来参加会议。 会议将使学生接触到与他们在前两周参加的课程主题相关的最新研究。 它还将把这些领域的研究人员聚集在一起，为他们提供一个讨论工作的论坛。 这项补助金支持美国数学家参加暑期学校和会议。 大部分资金将用于支持女性、少数民族和年轻科学家（包括研究生）。
