NSF/CBMS Regional Conference in the Mathematical Sciences - Unitary Representations of Reductive Groups

这一奖项将支持将于2012年夏天在波士顿马萨诸塞大学举行的NSF/CMBS区域会议，主题是约化群的么正表示。主讲嘉宾是麻省理工学院的David Vogan教授。该奖项将支持30名处于职业生涯不同阶段的参与者。这次会议将提供一个论坛，讨论该领域的最新进展，包括一种新的算法方法，有可能给出最大的特殊群体E_8的结果。会议将吸引广泛的研究人员和高级研究生，他们将接触到复杂的软件和计算技术，这将增强他们调查猜测和进行复杂模拟的能力。

This award will support an NSF/CMBS regional conference to be held at the University of Massachusetts Boston in the summer of 2012 on the topic of unitary representations of reductive groups. The principal speaker will be Professor David Vogan from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. This award will support 30 participants at different stages of their careers. The conference will provide a forum for discussing the latest advances in the field, including a new algorithmic approach that has the potential to give results for the largest exceptional group E_8. The conference will attract a wide range of researchers and advanced graduate students who will be exposed to sophisticated software and computational techniques that will enhance their capacity to investigate conjectures and carry out complex simulations.
