University of Arkansas Spring Lecture Series

该奖项支持参加分别于2017年3月和2018年4月在费耶特维尔阿肯色大学举行的第42届和第43届春季系列讲座。该奖项为主要演讲者、研究生、博士后学者和早期职业参与者提供旅费和住宿费。这些为期三天的会议提供了传播研究成果的机会，讨论导致新的联系和合作，并为初级参与者提供专业发展的机会。会议还包括一个公开的数学讲座，旨在扩大社区对数学的欣赏，以及为数学领域的女性和研究生举办的网络活动。更多信息可在会议网站上找到：https://fulbright.uark.edu/departments/math/research/spring-lecture-series/The 2017年会议将由石溪大学的Robert Lazarsfeld教授就几何和定义射影变量的方程进行讲座。这个主题在交换代数和代数几何中都很有意义，并且与这两个领域中许多最重要的开放猜想有关。2018年的会议将由加州大学圣地亚哥分校的Kiran Kedlaya教授就p进上同论的新旧主题进行演讲。这个话题在算术几何和混合特征交换代数中具有根本的重要性，讲座将描述最近的进展，并将它们与经典图像联系起来。除了首席讲师之外，这两个研讨会还将有10位世界领先的专家在各自领域的演讲，以及参与者的专题演讲，以及在首席讲座之前为研究生举办的小型研讨会。

This award supports participation in the 42nd and 43rd Spring Lecture Series, taking place at the University of Arkansas, Fayetteville, in March 2017 and April 2018 respectively. The award supports travel and lodging, both for the principal speakers and for graduate students, postdoctoral scholars, and early career participants. These three-day conferences provide opportunities for dissemination of research results, discussions that lead to new connections and collaborations, and for professional development for junior participants. The conferences also include a public mathematics lecture aimed at broadening mathematical appreciation in the community, and networking events for women in mathematics and for graduate students. Further information can be found at the conference website: https://fulbright.uark.edu/departments/math/research/spring-lecture-series/The 2017 conference will feature lectures by Professor Robert Lazarsfeld of Stony Brook University on geometry and the equations defining projective varieties. This topic is of significant interest in both commutative algebra and algebraic geometry and is related to many of the most important open conjectures in both fields. The 2018 conference will feature lectures by Professor Kiran Kedlaya of the University of California at San Diego on new and old themes in p-adic cohomology. This topic has been of fundamental importance in arithmetic geometry and mixed characteristic commutative algebra and the talks will describe recent advances and relate them to the classical picture. In addition to the principal lecturer, both workshops will feature talks by ten of the world's leading experts in the respective fields, as well as contributed talks by participants and a small workshop for graduate students held in advance of the principal lecture.
