AWM Workshops and Noether Lecture 2015, January 10-13, 2015; March 14-18, 2015

妇女数学协会(AWM)的这项建议包括两个针对早期职业女性的研讨会，第一个是2015年1月10日至13日在圣安东尼奥举行的联合数学会议(JMM)，第二个是2015年3月14日至18日在盐湖城举行的SIAM计算科学与工程会议(CSE)。它还包括将在圣安东尼奥JMM会议上举行的命名讲座--艾美诺特讲座。这些研讨会旨在创建可持续的网络，鼓励指导关系，并促进在关键数学领域的研究合作。诺特讲座突出了一位女性数学家的杰出贡献，并为更多年轻女性提供了一个鼓舞人心的榜样。因此，这些活动解决了经常阻碍妇女参与这一领域的一些关键问题。每个工作坊将集中讨论当前感兴趣的一个数学领域。2015年AWM-JMM研讨会将重点讨论同伦理论。同伦论是代数拓扑学的一个分支，它与代数几何、几何拓扑学、数论、表示论、数学物理等学科有着密切的联系。这是一个非常活跃的领域，近年来取得了重大进展。2015年AWM-SIAM研讨会将侧重于多物理和多尺度问题的数学建模和高性能计算。科学和工程的进步--从健康到能源和环境到国防--依赖于对多尺度多物理系统的预测性测量和分析。研讨会将讨论的主题包括物理建模、数学分析、数值分析、算法、实施、性能和可扩展性。Https://sites.google.com/site/awmmath/programs/workshops

This proposal from the Association for Women in Mathematics (AWM) includes two workshops for early-career women, the first at the Joint Mathematics Meeting (JMM) in San Antonio, January 10-13, 2015, and the second at the SIAM Conference on Computational Science and Engineering (CSE) in Salt Lake City, March 14-18, 2015. It also includes a named lectureship, the Emmy Noether Lecture, to be held at the San Antonio JMM meeting. The workshops are designed to create sustainable networks, encourage mentoring relationships, and promote research collaborations in key fields of mathematics. The Noether Lecture highlights outstanding contributions by a female mathematician and provides an inspiring role model to more junior women. As such, these events address some of the key issues that frequently inhibit women's participation in the field. Each workshop will focus on an area of mathematics of current interest. The 2015 AWM-JMM workshop will focus on homotopy theory. Homotopy theory, an area of algebraic topology, has close ties to algebraic geometry, geometric topology, number theory, representation theory, and mathematical physics. It is a highly active area and has seen significant progress in recent years. The 2015 AWM-SIAM workshop will focus on mathematical modeling and high-performance computing for multiphysics and multiscale problems. Advances in science and engineering - in disciplines ranging from health to energy and the environment to defense - rely on predictive measurement and analysis of multiscale multiphysics systems. Topics to be addressed at the workshop include physical modeling, mathematical analysis, numerical analysis, algorithms, implementation, performance, and scalability. https://sites.google.com/site/awmmath/programs/workshops
