Collaborative Research: Upstate Number Theory Conference

该奖项支持参加在纽约州北部举行的三届数论年度会议；首届会议将于 2019 年 4 月 27 日至 28 日在康奈尔大学举行，第二届会议将于 2020 年在罗彻斯特大学举行，第三届会议将于 2021 年在斯克内克塔迪联合学院举行。宾汉姆顿大学、布法罗大学和戴门学院将发挥行政作用，我们预计未来的会议将在宾汉顿和布法罗举行。调查人员代表这六个不同的机构。该系列会议旨在通过多种方式产生更广泛的影响。它将帮助研究生和博士后，让他们接触顶尖专家的工作，让他们交流自己的研究和兴趣，并让他们有机会与专家、他们之间以及与附近地区的年轻人互动。它还将使专家能够向更多的受众传播他们的想法。在教师研究层面，该会议系列将继续促进该地区几位专家之间的合作，同时加强纽约州北部和波士顿、纽约市、蒙特利尔、费城、普林斯顿和多伦多附近的研究人员之间的联系。这些会议将促进该地区的数论研究，并将丰富该地区初级研究人员的教育和专业发展机会。第一次会议将集中讨论有限域上的算术几何和自守形式的新方向的主题。有关会议系列的更多信息，请访问 https://math.cornell.edu/ninth-annual-upstate-number-theory-conference 该奖项反映了 NSF 的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的智力价值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 annual conferences in number theory held in Upstate New York; the first conference will take place at Cornell University on April 27-28, 2019, the second conference the University of Rochester in 2020 and the third conference Union College in Schenectady in 2021. Binghamton University, the University at Buffalo and Daemen College will play administrative roles and we expect future conferences to be held in Binghamton and Buffalo. The investigators represent these six different institutions. The conference series seeks to have a broader impact in a number of ways. It will help graduate students and post-docs by exposing them to work of leading experts, by allowing them to communicate their own research and interests, and by giving them the chance to interact with experts, among themselves and with young people from nearby places. It will also allow specialists to disseminate their ideas to a larger audience.At the level of faculty research, the conference series will continue to stimulate collaborations among several specialists in the region, while at the same time strengthening ties between researchers in Upstate New York and those near Boston, New York City, Montreal, Philadelphia, Princeton, and Toronto. The meetings will catalyze the region's research in number theory and will enrich the opportunities for education and professional development available to junior researchers in the region. The first conference will be centered on the themes of arithmetic geometry over finite fields and new directions in automorphic forms.
