This project will provide training through research involvement for students and postdoctoral associates in the areas of algebra, algebraic geometry, and number theory. These are some of the oldest branches of mathematics. Current research in these areas is a fascinating mixture of the old and the new: the study of longstanding challenging problems using very modern techniques that intertwine viewpoints from all three areas. Geometry flowered in the third and fourth centuries BC with the study of conic sections by the Greeks; more recent approaches related these geometric objects to quadratic equations. Algebraic geometry is the more general study of geometric objects using polynomials. Number theory is also a very old subject with a history that predates even that of geometry; it is now closely related to algebraic geometry via the study of polynomials with integer coefficients. Research in these fields has had a wide range of applications from elementary particle physics to cybersecurity. This Research Training Group will help to communicate the excitement of these research areas to students and to foster new research among faculty, postdoctoral associates, and students. The focus of this project is to involve undergraduate students, graduate students, and postdoctoral associates in common research. The investigators plan to achieve these goals by running a colloquium series, by offering topics courses to students, by running a yearly workshop and a yearly conference, and by organizing reading courses among students and postdoctoral associates on topics of current interest.

该项目将通过参与研究为学生和博士后助理在代数，代数几何和数论领域提供培训。 这些是数学的一些最古老的分支。 目前在这些领域的研究是一个迷人的混合物旧的和新的：研究长期具有挑战性的问题，使用非常现代的技术，从所有三个领域的观点。 几何学在公元前3世纪和4世纪随着希腊人对圆锥曲线的研究而蓬勃发展;最近的方法将这些几何对象与二次方程联系起来。 代数几何是使用多项式对几何对象进行的更一般的研究。 数论也是一个非常古老的学科，其历史甚至早于几何学;它现在通过研究整数系数的多项式与代数几何密切相关。 这些领域的研究有着广泛的应用，从基本粒子物理学到网络安全。这个研究培训小组将有助于传达这些研究领域的兴奋给学生，并促进教师，博士后和学生之间的新研究。 这个项目的重点是让本科生、研究生和博士后同事参与共同的研究。 研究人员计划通过举办一系列座谈会，为学生提供主题课程，举办年度研讨会和年度会议，以及在学生和博士后同事中组织关于当前感兴趣主题的阅读课程来实现这些目标。
