This grant will fund conferences at the University of Wisconsin on November 14, 2015, and at the University of Minnesota in April 2016 (date to be announced). These one-day meetings will bring together faculty and students from the two universities, as well as from nearby collegiate institutions, to discuss topics in and around commutative algebra. Commutative algebra concerns the qualitative study of systems of polynomial equations in several unknowns, which play an important role in many areas of science and engineering. Besides promoting scientific discovery and dissemination, the conferences seek to build a stronger regional community of researchers and promote the training and education of graduate students. More information about the meetings can be found here: http://www.math.wisc.edu/~derman/UMW.htmlEach meeting will consist of two plenary talks by invited speakers from around the country, followed by an expository talk on a cutting edge topic, presented by a local speaker. While a majority of the faculty in commutative algebra at the Universities of Minnesota and Wisconsin are relatively junior, both institutions have broad and deep communities of researchers whose work interacts with commutative algebra, but who primarily work in other fields, including algebraic geometry, combinatorics, number theory, applied algebra, representation theory, and computational algebra. Thus these conferences are well positioned to lead to collaborations across different areas of algebra. Attendees will consist of a mix of professors, postdoctoral researchers, and students from the two hosting institutions plus other nearby institutions.

这笔赠款将资助2015年11月14日在威斯康星大学举行的会议，以及2016年4月在明尼苏达大学举行的会议(日期待定)。这些为期一天的会议将汇集来自两所大学以及附近大学机构的师生，讨论交换代数及其周围的话题。交换代数涉及对多元多项式方程组的定性研究，在许多科学和工程领域中起着重要的作用。除了促进科学发现和传播外，会议还寻求建立更强大的区域研究人员社区，并促进研究生的培训和教育。有关会议的更多信息可在此处找到：http://www.math.wisc.edu/~derman/UMW.htmlEach会议将由来自全国各地的特邀演讲者进行两次全体演讲，然后由一名当地演讲者就一个前沿话题进行说明性演讲。虽然明尼苏达大学和威斯康星大学的大多数交换代数教师都是相对初级的，但这两个机构都有广泛而深入的研究人员社区，他们的工作与交换代数相互作用，但他们主要在其他领域工作，包括代数几何、组合学、数论、应用代数、表示理论和计算代数。因此，这些会议处于有利地位，可以促成代数不同领域的合作。与会者将由教授、博士后研究人员和来自两个主办机构以及附近其他机构的学生组成。
