This award provides support for participants for the next three installments of the Midwest Geometry Conference, which will be hosted by Iowa State University in 2019, Wichita State University in 2020, and Kansas State University in 2021. The Midwest Geometry Conference series began in 1991. Each conference is devoted to several topics in the broad area of geometry, which is the mathematical study of shapes and their relative properties. The main goal of this series is to create a focused environment in which graduate students, recent Ph.D.'s, and faculty in the Midwest can benefit from a lively exchange of ideas and from contact with leading geometers and topologists outside the region. The conference will have a mix of longer presentations by experts and shorter presentations by graduate students, with plenty of time for discussion between the talks. In addition, the organizers of the conference are deeply committed to fostering a more inclusive community in mathematics and have made it a goal to ensure the participation of women, underrepresented and minorities groups at all levels (participants, speakers, and organizers). In these conferences, the term geometry is interpreted broadly and includes Riemannian geometry, relativity theory, differential topology, gauge theory, geometric partial differential equations, free boundary problems, phase transitions, nonlocal minimal surfaces and related fields. The subject has many applications in general relativity, image processing, computer science, biology and climatology, for example. Because of the broad variety of topics, each conference will focus on a different aspect and the organizers will spend time at the conference to finalize plans for the next conference, as well as managing the overall series. The structure of the rather large organizing committee allows senior faculty with considerable experience planning conferences to help junior faculty with less experience. The overall expectation is that the Midwest Geometry Conference will be a welcoming setting in which to discuss ideas, share advances in theory and applications, build a strong research network, and start new collaborations and mentoring projects.

该奖项为中西部几何会议的下三个分期付款的参与者提供支持，该会议将于2019年由爱荷华州州立大学主办，威奇托州立大学将于2020年举办，堪萨斯州立大学将于2021年举办。中西部几何会议系列始于1991年。每次会议都致力于几何领域的几个主题，这是形状及其相关属性的数学研究。本系列的主要目标是创造一个集中的环境，其中研究生，最近的博士学位。的，和教师在中西部可以受益于一个生动的交流思想和接触领先的几何学家和拓扑学家以外的地区。会议将有专家的较长演讲和研究生的较短演讲，并有足够的时间进行讨论。此外，会议的组织者坚定地致力于培养一个更具包容性的数学社区，并将确保妇女、代表性不足和少数群体在各级（参与者、发言者和组织者）的参与作为一个目标。在这些会议中，术语几何被广泛地解释，包括黎曼几何，相对论，微分拓扑，规范理论，几何偏微分方程，自由边界问题，相变，非局部极小曲面和相关领域。该主题在广义相对论、图像处理、计算机科学、生物学和气候学等领域有许多应用。由于主题广泛，每次会议将侧重于不同的方面，组织者将花时间在会议上敲定下一次会议的计划，以及管理整个系列。相当大的组织委员会的结构允许具有相当经验的高级教师策划会议，以帮助经验较少的初级教师。总体预期是，中西部几何会议将是一个受欢迎的设置，在其中讨论的想法，分享理论和应用的进展，建立一个强大的研究网络，并开始新的合作和指导项目。会议网页是在https://stinga.public.iastate.edu/MGC2019.html.This奖反映了NSF的法定使命，并已被认为是值得通过使用基金会的知识价值和更广泛的影响审查标准的评估支持。
