This award supports participation in two three-day conferences in the area of Discrete Geometry and Algebraic Combinatorics, held May 4-6, 2016 and in May 2017 in South Padre Island, TX. The conferences, eighth and ninth in a series, are devoted to a wide range of classical and modern problems in these active areas of mathematical research. The conferences bring together students and researchers in the region centered on the University of Texas - Rio Grande Valley. Due to the diverse composition of the student body, conference organizers expect to be able to attract a sizable fraction of attendees from among groups traditionally underrepresented in U.S. mathematics studies. The grant provides travel support for graduate students and early-career researchers, as well as non-local participants without other sources of support. The two events represent the continuation of a successful series of conferences, the last of which was held in April 2015. The conference topics include: polytopes; packings, coverings, and tilings; rigidity and flexibility; geometric graph theory; topological combinatorics; incidence structures; lattices and discrete groups; geometric set partitioning and transversals; optimal configurations; spherical and Euclidean designs; distance sets; semidefinite programming in coding theory and discrete geometry; and strongly regular graphs. The conferences include an introduction of the research area through problems related to the topical areas and presentations of recent results by the leading experts in the field.

该奖项支持参加离散几何和代数组合领域的两个为期三天的会议，分别于2016年5月4日至6日和2017年5月在南帕德雷岛举行，德克萨斯州。该系列会议，第八和第九次，致力于在这些活跃的数学研究领域广泛的经典和现代问题。这些会议将以德克萨斯大学格兰德谷分校为中心的学生和研究人员聚集在一起。由于学生群体的多样性，会议组织者希望能够吸引相当一部分来自传统上在美国数学研究中代表性不足的群体的与会者。该补助金为研究生和早期职业研究人员以及没有其他支持来源的非本地参与者提供旅行支持。这两项活动是一系列成功会议的延续，最后一次会议于2015年4月举行。会议主题包括：多面体；包装物、覆盖物和衬垫；刚性和灵活性；几何图论；拓扑组合;发病率结构;格与离散群；几何集划分与截线；最优配置;球面和欧几里得设计；距离集;编码理论与离散几何中的半定规划强正则图。会议包括通过与主题领域相关的问题介绍研究领域，并介绍该领域的主要专家的最新成果。更多信息请访问会议网站：www.utrgv.edu/discgeo
