This grant will support a cooperative effort with the Mathematical Society of Japan and other Japanese funding sources to hold the International Summer School and Conference on Schubert Calculus from July 17-27, 2012, in Osaka, Japan. Schubert calculus is a wide-ranging mathematical discipline that blends many fields. It has been used to solve problems in computational geometry, optimization, mathematical biology, and cryptography, among other important applications. While Japanese mathematicians are not very active in Schubert calculus, many are experts in closely related fields. The conference will bring US researchers and open problems in Schubert calculus to Japan, and bring specialized Japanese expertise and techniques to questions in Schubert calculus; this synergy has the potential to transform the field. NSF funds will be used to support travel and limited local expenses for about 20 US mathematicians at early stages in their careers, when the potential impact on their mathematical development is highest.This conference will foster mathematical leadership in the next generation of researchers, and also encourage established researchers into the the field, via educational programs like the summer school and resulting publications (online, video, and traditional conference proceedings).

这笔赠款将支持与日本数学学会和其他日本资金来源的合作，于2012年7月17日至27日在日本大阪举办舒伯特微积分国际暑期学校和会议。舒伯特微积分是一门涉及面很广的数学学科，融合了许多领域。它已被用于解决计算几何、最优化、数学生物学和密码学等重要应用中的问题。虽然日本数学家在舒伯特微积分方面不是很活跃，但许多人都是密切相关领域的专家。这次会议将把美国的研究人员和舒伯特微积分的公开问题带到日本，并将日本的专门知识和技术带到舒伯特微积分的问题上；这种协同作用有可能改变这一领域。NSF的资金将用于资助约20名美国数学家在职业生涯早期的旅行和有限的本地费用，此时他们的数学发展受到的潜在影响最大。这次会议将培养下一代研究人员的数学领导力，并通过暑期学校等教育项目和由此产生的出版物(在线、视频和传统会议记录)鼓励知名研究人员进入该领域。会议网页位于以下位置：http://www.math.ed.okayama-u.ac.jp/msjsi12/
