SchumakerDMS-1243266 The investigator and his colleagues organize an international conference on Approximation Theory, to be held in San Antonio, TX on April 7-10, 2013. The meeting engages about 150 mathematical scientists from academia, industry, and government laboratories from around the world. It continues the tradition of triennial meetings in the subject which began in 1973, and which have been the premier comprehensive meetings in the area. The meeting features eight one-hour survey lectures on topics of current interest (including applications of radial basis functions in partial differential equations, isogeometric analysis, multivariate orthogonal polynomials, nonlinear approximation, rational interpolation, subdivision methods, and wavelets). The Seventh Vasil A. Popov Prize in Approximation Theory is awarded at the meeting, with the winner giving one of the plenary lectures. The conference runs for four days, and includes about 130 additional invited and contributed presentations. As with all of the previous meetings, a carefully reviewed and edited conference proceedings is planned. Participants in this conference present recent advances in approximation theory, a field of mathematics that has had a major impact on science and engineering for well over 100 years, and that has enabled concrete technological advances in the United States. For example, the mathematics in this area has had significant impact on computer-aided design and manufacture (a key tool in the aircraft and automotive industries), animation and computer graphics (major tools in the video gaming and movie industries), data compression and processing (critical to information technology applications such as HDTV or medical imaging), geophysical problems (such as weather modeling and oil exploration), uncertainty quantification (which plays an important role in environmental and climate modeling as well as nanotechnology), and modeling in the business world. This conference brings together students, junior researchers, and leaders in the field from around the world, aids young researchers in advancing their careers, and attracts PhD students to work in the subject.

Schumakerdms-1243266调查员及其同事组织了一次国际近似理论会议，将于2013年4月7日至10日在德克萨斯州圣安东尼奥举行。该会议与来自世界各地的学术界，工业和政府实验室的大约150名数学科学家参与。 它延续了始于1973年的三年期会议的传统，并一直是该地区首要的全面会议。 这次会议为当前感兴趣的主题提供了八个一小时的调查讲座（包括径向基础功能在部分微分方程中的应用，等几年分析，多元正交多项式，非线性近似，合理插值，细分方法和小波）。 近似理论的第七届Vasil A. Popov奖是在会议上颁发的，获胜者颁发了一位全体讲座。会议进行了四天，其中包括大约130个受邀和贡献的演讲。 与以前的所有会议一样，计划进行仔细审查和编辑的会议诉讼。 这次会议的参与者介绍了近似理论的最新进展，这是一个数学领域，对科学和工程的数学领域已有100多年的历史，这在美国实现了具体的技术进步。 For example, the mathematics in this area has had significant impact on computer-aided design and manufacture (a key tool in the aircraft and automotive industries), animation and computer graphics (major tools in the video gaming and movie industries), data compression and processing (critical to information technology applications such as HDTV or medical imaging), geophysical problems (such as weather modeling and oil exploration), uncertainty quantification (which plays an important role in environmental和气候建模以及纳米技术）以及商业世界中的建模。 这次会议汇集了来自世界各地的学生，初级研究人员和领导者，帮助年轻的研究人员促进自己的职业发展，并吸引博士生从事该学科的工作。
