Southwest Local Algebra Meeting 2018

该奖项支持参加西南地方代数会议2018年，将于2018年2月24日至25日在费耶特维尔的阿肯色州大学举行。本次会议将鼓励专业的网络和学生和教师之间的互动与环理论的兴趣，广泛的解释，从西南地区的机构。会议将为科学互动提供一个有效的环境，这要归功于知名专家的鼓舞人心的演讲，研究生海报展示的充足时间以及参与者开始新合作和探索新研究方向的机会。预计将有大约50名与会者，包括来自西南部和南部的学生和初级和高级教师。特别鼓励来自代表性不足的少数群体的学生、妇女、非终身教职人员和非博士授予机构的教师的参与。六位专家将就其专业领域内的主题进行长达一小时的演讲;研究生可以参加讲座。会议还将举行三个小时的海报会议，与会学生将介绍并与与会者讨论他们的研究。更多信息可以在会议网页http://www.math.ttu.edu/~lchriste/slam2018.html上找到。环的研究，在最广泛的意义上，是必不可少的许多数学分支，包括交换和非交换几何，数论，编码理论，群表示和密码学。发言者是专家微分代数，交叉多重性，里斯代数，李理论，有限和代数群，代数组合，复杂性理论，同调方法的表示。我们的演讲者之间的这种兴趣应该为所有参与者之间的新代数互动提供方向，并扩大他们潜在的研究视野。

This award supports the participation in the Southwest Local Algebra Meeting 2018, to be held at the University of Arkansas in Fayetteville on February 24-25, 2018. This conference will encourage professional networking and interactions between students and faculty with interests in ring theory, broadly interpreted, from institutions in the Southwest region. The meeting will provide an effective environment for scientific interaction, thanks to inspiring talks from established experts, ample time dedicated to graduate students poster presentations and opportunities for participants to begin new collaborations and exploring new research directions. About 50 participants are expected, including students and both junior and senior faculty from throughout the Southwest and South. The participation of students from underrepresented minority groups, women, untenured faculty and faculty at non-PhD granting institutions is particularly encouraged. Six experts will deliver hour-long talks on topics within their areas of specialty; the lectures will be accessible to graduate students. The meeting will also feature three hour-long poster sessions in which the participating students will present and discuss their research with the participants. More information can be found at the conference webpage http://www.math.ttu.edu/~lchriste/slam2018.html. The study of rings, in the broadest sense, is essential in many branches of mathematics, including commutative and non-commutative geometry, number theory, coding theory, group representations and cryptography. The speakers are specialists in differential graded algebras, intersection multiplicities, Rees algebras, Lie theory, representations of finite and algebraic groups, algebraic combinatorics, complexity theory, homological methods. This variety of interests among our speakers should provide directions for new algebraic interactions between all participants and expand their potential research horizons.
