This award will support the Mathematics Research Communities (MRC) activities run by the American Mathematical Society (AMS) over a three-year period from 2017 - 2019. The goal of the MRC program is to create research cohorts of early-career mathematicians that will sustain themselves over time and to foster joint research and coherent research programs that will, eventually, reach all areas of mathematics. The MRC program strives to achieve this goal through summer research conferences, Special Sessions at the annual AMS-MAA Joint Mathematics Meetings, support for collaboration travel, mentoring, and a discussion network. It is the formation of research cohorts that sets this program apart from any other (national) professional development programs for mathematicians that currently exist. The creation of three to four new cohorts per year has the potential to lay a foundation for decades of research, and will have an extremely positive effect on mathematics research in the U.S. Most importantly, this program will focus on mathematicians who are beginning their research careers; all program components will help to train and connect the next generation of researchers in, eventually, all research areas of mathematics. This grant provides support for an additional three years of this unique program. In 2017, there will be three MRC conferences supported, all to be held in Snowbird, Utah, with the following titles: (1) Homotopy Type Theory, (2) Beyond Planarity: Crossing Numbers of Graphs, and (3) Dynamical Systems: Smooth, Symbolic, and Measurable. The topics of the conferences to be held in 2018 and 2019 will be determined later by the MRC Advisory Board, which evaluates proposals submitted by senior mathematicians who wish to be organizers. Each of the MRC conferences will bring together a diverse group of early-career mathematicians. The organizing committee for each conference is composed of leaders in the field of the conference and includes individuals with previous experience in organizing successful workshops and conferences. The conferences will bring together senior and junior researchers in an ideal environment to establish connections, and the follow-up elements of the program will help to ensure those relationships endure for many years.

该奖项将支持美国数学学会（AMS）在2017 - 2019年三年期间开展的数学研究社区（MRC）活动。 MRC计划的目标是创建早期职业数学家的研究群体，这些数学家将随着时间的推移而自我维持，并促进联合研究和连贯的研究计划，最终将覆盖数学的所有领域。MRC计划致力于通过夏季研究会议，年度AMS-MAA联合数学会议的特别会议，支持协作旅行，指导和讨论网络来实现这一目标。这是研究队列的形成，设置这个程序除了任何其他（国家）专业发展计划的数学家，目前存在的。每年创建三到四个新的队列有可能为数十年的研究奠定基础，并将对美国的数学研究产生极其积极的影响最重要的是，该计划将专注于数学家谁是开始他们的研究生涯;所有计划的组成部分将有助于培养和连接下一代研究人员，最终，数学的所有研究领域。这笔赠款为这个独特的计划提供了额外三年的支持。在2017年，将有三个MRC会议支持，都将在犹他州的雪鸟举行，以下标题：（1）同伦类型理论，（2）超越平面性：交叉数的图，和（3）动力系统：光滑，符号，和可测的。 2018年和2019年会议的主题将由MRC咨询委员会决定，该委员会将评估希望成为组织者的高级数学家提交的提案。每个MRC会议将汇集一个不同的早期职业数学家群体。每次会议的组织委员会由会议领域的领导人组成，并包括具有成功组织讲习班和会议经验的个人。这些会议将使高级和初级研究人员在一个理想的环境中建立联系，该计划的后续内容将有助于确保这些关系持续多年。 MRC计划的网页可以在这里找到http://www.ams.org/programs/research-communities/mrc。
