International Conference on Graph Theory and Applications

该奖项支持参加2015年8月15日至8月17日在田纳西州默弗里斯伯勒的中田纳西州立大学举行的图论与应用国际会议。本次会议的目的是将专家和初级研究人员聚集在一起，讨论图论及其应用的最新进展，并为未来的研究交换意见。更多信息请访问会议网站http://mtsu.edu/GTA2015。会议的重点是图的拓扑和几何性质，这与其他数学领域有很强的联系，如群论、矩阵论、离散几何和优化等。会议将有六位全体发言人：Michel Deza、Fan Chung Graham、Douglas Klein、Bojan Mohar、Wendy Myrvod和Teresa M. Przytycka。虽然每年都有许多关于图论的会议，但关注图论的几何和拓扑方面的会议却很少。本次会议将为研究图的拓扑和几何性质的研究人员提供一个机会，展示最近的研究成果，并确定未来研究的新方向。

This award supports participation in the International Conference on Graph Theory and Applications, held at Middle Tennessee State University in Murfreesboro, Tennessee from August 15, 2015 to August 17, 2015. The aim of this conference is to bring experts and junior researchers together to discuss recent advances in graph theory and applications, and to exchange ideas for future research. More information is available on the conference website http://mtsu.edu/GTA2015. The focus of the conference is on topology and geometry properties of graphs, which have strong connections with other areas of mathematics, such as group theory, matrix theory, discrete geometry and optimization etc. The conference will feature six plenary speakers: Michel Deza, Fan Chung Graham, Douglas Klein, Bojan Mohar, Wendy Myrvod and Teresa M. Przytycka. While there are many conferences on graph theory each year, conferences focusing on geometric and topological aspects of graph theory are rare. This conference will provide an opportunity for researchers working on topological and geometric properties of graphs to present recent research results and to identify new directions for future research.
