项目摘要

The aim of this Research Training Group project "RTG: Building Communities in the Mathematical Sciences at Rice University" is to continue, enhance, broaden and diversify the core ideas and values that were articulated by its founder Edgar Odell Lovett; namely that it be a, "school of the highest grade looking, in its educational programme, as much to investigation as to instruction." In the context of the Mathematics Department, and more precisely, this Research Training Group project, the Principal Investigators (who have a broad expertise in Geometry and its connections with Analysis and Partial Differential Equations, Geometric Analysis, Geometric Topology, and Algebraic Number Theory) together with other faculty members, postdocs, graduate and undergraduate students intend to focus on building communities which will impact, at all stages of the academic pipeline, the number and readiness of people entering the U.S. mathematical workforce (both academic and industrial), and bolstering in particular the representation of women and underrepresented minorities in the mathematical sciences. Moreover, structures put in place will see a vertical community of women mathematicians, a vertical community of mathematicians from low-income households and underrepresented minority groups, a community of young scholars who will pursue research careers in industry, and a horizontal community of strong junior and senior math majors.The RTG Senior Faculty will use their research expertise and previous experience to mentor research of junior mathematicians centered on Geometry. Reflecting the strongly collaborative relationship of the team, contributions will come from perspectives not only within but also across the disciplines of Analysis and PDE, Geometric Analysis, Geometric Topology, Algebraic Geometry and Algebraic Number Theory. To that end, vertical integration of postdocs and students will allow collaborative research projects, and this will be aided by developing an expository writing seminar in the mathematical sciences for freshmen as an alternative entry point into mathematical thinking, as well as organize conferences of RTG programs to share ideas, the highlights of which will be stored in a public written record. The log-cabin conferences and undergraduate conferences will give participants the opportunity to disseminate their research and grow collaborative networks. There will be opportunities for summer internships in local industries.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

这个研究培训小组项目的目的“RTG：在莱斯大学建立数学科学社区”是继续，加强，扩大和多样化的核心思想和价值观，由其创始人埃德加奥德尔洛维特阐述;即它是一个，“学校的最高年级期待，在其教育计划，尽可能多的调查，以指导。“在数学系的背景下，更准确地说，这个研究培训小组的项目，主要研究人员（谁在几何及其与分析和偏微分方程，几何分析，几何拓扑和代数数论的连接有广泛的专业知识）与其他教师，博士后，研究生和本科生打算专注于建设社区，这将影响，在学术管道的各个阶段，进入美国数学劳动力（学术和工业）的人数和准备程度，特别是在数学科学中妇女和代表性不足的少数民族的代表性。此外，建立的结构将看到一个女性数学家的垂直社区，一个来自低收入家庭和代表性不足的少数群体的数学家的垂直社区，一个将在工业中从事研究事业的年轻学者的社区，以及一个由优秀的初级和高级数学专业人员组成的横向社区。RTG高级教师将利用他们的研究专长和以往的经验指导初级数学家的研究以几何体为中心。反映了团队的强烈合作关系，贡献将来自不仅内部，而且跨学科的分析和偏微分方程，几何分析，几何拓扑，代数几何和代数数论的观点。为此，博士后和学生的垂直整合将允许合作研究项目，这将通过为新生开发数学科学的临时写作研讨会作为数学思维的另一个切入点来帮助，以及组织RTG课程的会议来分享想法，其中的亮点将存储在公共书面记录中。小木屋会议和本科生会议将为参与者提供传播他们的研究和发展合作网络的机会。该奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的知识价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。
