The American Mathematical Society (AMS) has created the Mathematics Research Communities (MRC) as a national program to support and guide young mathematicians as they begin their research careers. In 2014, there are four MRC conferences proposed, all to be held in Snowbird, Utah: Cluster Algebras, June 8 - 14, 2014; Algebraic and Geometric Combinatorics in Applied Mathematics, June 15 - 21, 2014; Mathematics of Quantum Phases of Matter and Quantum Information, June 25 - July 1, 2014; and Network Science, June 25 - July 1, 2014. The topics of the conferences to be held in 2015 and 2016 will be determined later by the MRC Advisory Board, which evaluates proposals submitted by senior mathematicians who wish to be organizers. Each of the MRC conferences will bring together a diverse group of young mathematicians. The organizing committee for each conference is composed of leaders in the field of the conference and includes individuals with previous experience in organizing successful workshops and conferences. The conferences will bring together senior and junior researchers in an ideal environment to establish connections, which often last for many years after the conference itself. The goal of the Mathematics Research Communities program is to create research cohorts of young mathematicians that will sustain themselves over time, fostering joint research and coherent research programs that will, eventually, reach all areas of mathematics. The Mathematics Research Communities program strives to achieve this goal through the following activities in addition to the summer research conferences: Special Sessions at the annual AMS-MAA Joint Mathematics Meetings, mentoring and a discussion network. It is the formation of research cohorts that sets this program apart from any other (national) professional development programs for mathematicians that currently exist. The creation of three to four new cohorts per year has the potential to lay a foundation for decades of research, and will have an extremely positive effect on mathematics research in the U.S. Most importantly, this program will focus on mathematicians who are beginning their research careers; all program components will help to train and connect the next generation of researchers in, eventually, all research areas of mathematics. This proposal is requesting support for an additional three years of this unique program. Conference topics will include both pure and applied mathematics areas of research.

美国数学学会（AMS）创建了数学研究社区（MRC），作为支持和指导年轻数学家开始他们的研究生涯的国家计划。2014年，提议召开四次MRC会议，全部在犹他州雪鸟市举行：聚类代数，2014年6月8 - 14日；应用数学中的代数与几何组合，2014年6月15 - 21日；《物质量子相与量子信息数学》，2014年6月25日- 7月1日；网络科学，2014年6月25日至7月1日。将于2015年和2016年举行的会议的主题将由MRC顾问委员会确定，该委员会将对希望成为组织者的高级数学家提交的提案进行评估。每一次MRC会议都将汇集不同群体的年轻数学家。每个会议的组织委员会由会议领域的领导者组成，其中包括具有成功组织研讨会和会议经验的个人。这些会议将把高级和初级研究人员聚集在一个理想的环境中，建立联系，这种联系通常会在会议结束后持续多年。数学研究社区计划的目标是创建年轻数学家的研究群体，这些研究群体将随着时间的推移而维持自己，促进联合研究和连贯的研究项目，最终将覆盖数学的所有领域。除了夏季研究会议外，数学研究社区计划还通过以下活动努力实现这一目标：年度AMS-MAA联合数学会议的特别会议，指导和讨论网络。正是研究团队的形成使这个项目有别于目前存在的任何其他（国家）数学家专业发展项目。每年创建三到四个新队列有可能为数十年的研究奠定基础，并将对美国的数学研究产生极其积极的影响。最重要的是，该计划将重点关注刚刚开始其研究生涯的数学家；所有项目的组成部分将有助于培养和连接下一代的研究人员，最终，所有的数学研究领域。本提案要求为这一独特项目再提供三年的支持。会议主题将包括纯数学和应用数学领域的研究。
