Participant Support for the Conference Building Bridges II

该奖项将资助美国研究人员参加将于2018年7月2日至6日在匈牙利布达佩斯MTA Renyi数学研究所举行的“建设桥梁II”会议。会议将涵盖组合学的前沿研究成果及其与数学其他部分的联系。该奖项的目的是增加那些没有资金的顶尖初级研究人员的参与。会议将讨论的主题包括图同态和图极限，这是一个与互联网等大型网络研究相关的新颖而令人兴奋的方向；以及加法组合学，这个领域最近取得了惊人的成果，并且与计算机科学有关。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，认为值得支持。

This award will fund participation of US based researchers in the conference Building Bridges II, to be held July 2-6, 2018, at the MTA Renyi Institute of Mathematics, Budapest, Hungary. The conference will cover front line research achievements in combinatorics and its connections to other parts of mathematics. The objective of the award is to increase participation by leading junior researchers who otherwise do not have funding.Among the wide variety of topics to be covered at the conference are graph homomorphisms and graph limits, a novel and exciting direction related to the study of large networks such as the internet; and additive combinatorics, an area that saw recent spectacular results and is connected to computer science. The conference website is https://www.renyi.hu//conferences/ll70/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.
