This grant supports the international summer school and conference "Building Bridges: 1st EU/US conference on Automorphic Forms and Related Topics," which will take place July 30 -- August 10, 2012 at RWTH Aachen University (webpage: http://www.af-bridges.matha.rwth-aachen.de/). Grant funds will be used to enable US-based researchers to participate in this international summer school and meeting.The theory of automorphic forms is a rich research area with deep links to different fields of mathematics and physics. Current research on automorphic forms is particularly impacted by "Borcherds products and applications," "Modular symbols," and "Theta blocks," the topics of the three mini-courses of the summer school. Each mini-course is led by a team of two internationally established researchers and consists of two 90-minute lectures each morning and problem sessions and homework in the afternoons.The conference will provide an important and timely opportunity for participants to start new collaborations and strengthen existing collaborations. International connections between senior researchers indirectly benefit students and post-docs, who may later visit institutions abroad to give talks, study, or hold visiting positions. Junior participants will be able to start new projects with international experts at a critical stage in their careers.

该基金支持国际暑期学校和会议“搭建桥梁：第一届欧盟/美国自同构形式及相关主题会议”，该会议将于2012年7月30日至8月10日在亚琛工业大学举行（网页：http://www.af-bridges.matha.rwth-aachen.de/）。赠款资金将用于使美国的研究人员参加这个国际暑期学校和会议。自同构形式理论是一个丰富的研究领域，与数学和物理的各个领域有着深刻的联系。目前对自同构形式的研究尤其受到“Borcherds产品和应用”、“模块化符号”和“Theta块”这三个暑期学校迷你课程主题的影响。每门迷你课程由两名国际知名研究人员组成的团队领导，每天上午有两次90分钟的讲座，下午有问题和家庭作业。会议将为与会者开展新的合作和加强现有合作提供重要和及时的机会。高级研究人员之间的国际联系间接使学生和博士后受益，他们以后可能会访问国外的机构进行演讲、学习或担任访问职位。初级参与者将能够在其职业生涯的关键阶段与国际专家一起启动新项目。
