Conferences on Formal Power Series and Algebraic Combinatorics 2013-2014

该奖项将为美国参与者，特别是女性、研究生、博士后和初级教师提供支持，参加将于巴黎（2013年）和芝加哥（2014年）举行的第25届和第26届形式幂级数和代数组合学（FPSAC）国际会议。 FPSAC 是世界上最重要的代数组合学年度会议系列，为年轻的美国研究人员提供了与来自许多国家的顶尖数学家密切互动的独特机会。这些会议在某种程度上是跨学科的，将组合数学的研究与纯数学的其他主题（如代数几何、交换代数、表示论、K 理论和辛几何）以及其他科学的主题（如计算机科学、物理学和生物学）联系起来。

This award will provide support for US participants, especially women, graduate students, postdocs, and junior faculty, to attend the twenty-fifth and twenty-sixth international conferences in Formal Power Series and Algebraic Combinatorics (FPSAC), to be held in Paris (2013) and Chicago (2014). The most important annual conference series in algebraic combinatorics in the world, FPSAC offers young American researchers a unique opportunity to interact closely with top mathematicians from many countries. Somewhat interdisciplinary, the conferences link research in combinatorics to other topics in pure mathematics such as algebraic geometry, commutative algebra, representation theory, K-theory and symplectic geometry, and to topics in other sciences such as computer science, physics, and biology.
