This proposal is to fund the Undergraduate Knot Theory Conference 2016 to bring together undergraduates and undergraduate faculty interested in knot theory, to be held at Denison University from July 31 to August 2, 2016 as a satellite conference to "2016 MathFest" which will take place in Columbus, OH. Knot theory is a field very amenable to research by undergraduates. There are a variety of REU programs with a knot theory component. Moreover, there are many faculty members who would like to involve their students in undergraduate research in knot theory. This conference will bring together experts in knot theory with undergraduates who are either currently participating in knot theory REUs, undergraduates who have participated in knot theory research, current graduate students who participated as undergraduates in knot theory research, and perhaps most importantly, faculty who either have involved undergraduates in knot theory research or who would like to involve undergraduates.As a centerpiece, the organizers plan to have a collective problem session to give participants numerous ideas for future research directions. This conference will provide an opportunity for students to experience a mathematics research conference that is specifically designed and directed toward them. Moreover, the conference will establish a supportive network of students and faculty with an interest in knot theory research, thus furthering the involvement of students in the field of mathematics.

这项建议是资助本科结理论会议2016年汇集本科生和本科生教师结理论感兴趣，将于2016年7月31日至8月2日在丹尼森大学举行的卫星会议，以“2016年数学节”，这将发生在哥伦布，俄亥俄州。 纽结理论是一个非常适合大学生研究的领域。有各种各样的REU程序与纽结理论组件。 此外，有许多教师谁愿意让他们的学生在本科研究纽结理论。 本次会议将汇集结理论专家与本科生谁是目前正在参与结理论雷乌斯，本科生谁参加了结理论研究，目前的研究生谁参加了结理论研究的本科生，也许最重要的是，教师谁要么参与了结理论研究的本科生或谁愿意参与本科生。作为一个核心，主办单位计划举办集体问题研讨会，让参加者对未来的研究方向有许多想法。这次会议将为学生提供一个机会，体验一个专门设计和针对他们的数学研究会议。此外，会议将建立一个支持网络的学生和教师与结理论研究的兴趣，从而进一步促进学生在数学领域的参与。会议的URL是www.denison.edu/unknot。
