This proposal is to support a conference on Probability Theory and Combinatorial Optimization that will take place at Duke University on March 14-15, 2015. The conference covers topics such as random structures and algorithms, random graphs and networks, probabilistic combinatorial optimization, and concentration inequalities. The conference brings together a diverse set of speakers and participants in probability theory and combinatorial optimization, and it is devoted to discuss how to make progress on some of the most important questions in the field. The conference tentatively features eleven talks delivered by exceptional scholars alongside with a number of short presentations delivered by graduate students, postdocs, and other young researchers. The conference seeks to facilitate the interaction between the new generations of mathematicians and the key figures of the field. The conference organizers are committed to trying to help advance the careers of graduate students, postdocs, women, minorities and other young researchers in the field. Priority for financial support will be given to several members of such groups. More information is available on the conference website at http://sites.duke.edu/steele2015/.

这项提议是为了支持将于2015年3月14-15日在杜克大学举行的概率论和组合优化会议。会议的主题包括随机结构和算法、随机图和网络、概率组合优化和集中度不等。这次会议汇集了概率论和组合优化领域的不同演讲者和参与者，并致力于讨论如何在该领域的一些最重要的问题上取得进展。会议暂定由杰出学者发表11场演讲，并由研究生、博士后和其他年轻研究人员发表一些简短的演讲。这次会议旨在促进新一代数学家和该领域的关键人物之间的互动。会议组织者致力于帮助推动该领域的研究生、博士后、女性、少数民族和其他年轻研究人员的职业生涯。这类小组的几名成员将优先获得财政支助。欲了解更多信息，请访问会议网站：http://sites.duke.edu/steele2015/.。
