Texas-Oklahoma Representations and Automorphic Forms Conference Series

该奖项支持参加德克萨斯州-俄克拉何马州陈述和自构形(TORA)会议系列的三次会议。该系列的第十次会议将于2019年4月5日至7日在德克萨斯州丹顿的北德克萨斯大学举行。有关详细信息，请访问Tora X的网页：http://www.math.unt.edu/~richter/TORA/TORA10.html。该系列随后的两次会议分别定于2020年春季在俄克拉荷马州立大学斯蒂尔沃特举行，2021年春季在俄克拉荷马大学诺曼举行。每一次TORA会议都将有三位来自德克萨斯-俄克拉何马地区以外的受邀全体演讲者：两位杰出的高级研究人员和一位有前途的初级数学家。此外，地区研究生和研究人员将介绍他们的工作。这些周末的会议将为该地区专门从事数论、自同构形式和表示理论的学生和研究人员之间的合作和互动提供宝贵的机会。自同构形式和表示理论之间的相互作用最近出现了几个令人兴奋的新发展，这也推动了对其他几个领域的应用。这些发展包括对正交群和辛群表示的内窥镜分类，以及扩展到覆盖群的经典群的分类证明。TORA会议系列成功地将来自该地区和其他地区的研究人员以及他们的学生聚集在一起，推动创新和合作。Tora X-XII将不仅在机构之间，而且在数学领域之间的合作和交流中继续取得这种成功。这一奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的智力优势和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。

This award supports participation in three meetings of the Texas-Oklahoma Representations and Automorphic Forms (TORA) conference series. The tenth meeting of the series will be held at the University of North Texas in Denton, TX, on April 5-7, 2019. Detailed information is available on the TORA X webpage: http://www.math.unt.edu/~richter/TORA/TORA10.html . The subsequent two conferences in the series are scheduled at Oklahoma State University in Stillwater, OK in Spring 2020 and at the University of Oklahoma in Norman, OK in Spring 2021, respectively. Each TORA conference will feature three invited plenary speakers from outside the Texas-Oklahoma region: two prominent senior researchers and one promising junior mathematician. In addition, regional graduate students and researchers will present their work. These weekend conferences will provide valuable opportunities for collaboration and interaction among the students and researchers in the region specializing in number theory, automorphic forms, and representation theory. The interplay between automorphic forms and representation theory has recently seen several exciting new developments, which also fuel applications to several other fields. These developments include endoscopic classification of representations of orthogonal and symplectic groups and a proof of classification for classical groups that extends to covering groups. The TORA conference series has been successful in bringing together researchers working in automorphic forms and representation theory from the region and beyond, as well as their students, and in propelling innovation and collaboration. TORA X-XII will continue this success in collaborations and exchanges not only between institutions, but also among mathematical areas.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.
