Theory and Applications of Syzygies

这笔旅费资助支持美国研究生和其他早期职业数学家参加2015年7月1日至3日在德国萨尔布吕肯举行的国际会议“合朔理论与应用”。会议的中心议题是研究数学中的合冲，其中涉及矩阵的条目是多项式。 这类矩阵出现在纯数学和应用数学中，因此对合合的研究可以应用于许多领域，包括计算代数和代数几何。 这次会议将为年轻数学家提供一个极好的机会，让他们了解这些领域的主要新发展，并寻求新的研究问题进行探索。会议汇集了一系列领域的合朔和相关主题的领先专家，并将突出合朔研究的许多最新突破。 由于其相对适中的规模，本次会议提供了一个独特的机会，为这一系列的顶尖研究人员在syzygies走到一起，讨论新的研究途径。 此外，由于许多关于syzygies的突破性成果发生在多个领域之间的交叉点，因此本次会议提供了激发新的合作或研究途径的高潜力。 欲了解更多详情，请访问会议网站http://www.math.uni-sb.de/ag-schreyer/conference/。

This travel grant supports the participation of US-based graduate students and other early career mathematicians in the international conference "Theory and Application of Syzygies" held in Saarbrucken, Germany on July 1-3, 2015. The central topic of the conference is the study of syzygies in mathematics, which involves matrices whose entries are polynomials. These kinds of matrices arise throughout pure and applied mathematics, and thus research about syzygies can be applied in many fields, including computational algebra and algebraic geometry. The meeting will provide an excellent opportunity for junior mathematicians to learn about major new developments in these fields and to seek new research problems to explore.The conference brings together leading experts on syzygies and related topics across a range of fields, and it will highlight many of the recent breakthroughs in the study of syzygies. Due to its relatively moderate size, this conference offers a unique opportunity for this array of top researchers on syzygies to come together and discuss avenues for new research. In addition, since many groundbreaking results on syzygies take place at an intersection between multiple fields, this conference offers a high potential to spur new collaborations or avenues for research.
