Barrett Lectures 2019: Recent Advancements in Number Theory

第 49 届约翰·H·巴雷特纪念讲座将于 2019 年 5 月 28 日至 30 日在诺克斯维尔田纳西大学举行。 今年的讲座题为“数论的最新进展”，将由知名数学家进行数小时的全体演讲，以及大多数早期职业研究人员的简短演讲。 这些演讲将涵盖数论和算术几何的一系列主题。 欲了解更多信息，请访问会议网站：http://www.math.utk.edu/barrett/Barrett 讲座始于 1970 年，旨在向田纳西大学杰出数学家、颇具影响力的数学系主任 John H. Barrett 博士致敬。 多年来，讲座涵盖了大量的数学主题（今年的主题来自数论和算术几何），并发展了丰富的卓越历史。 讲座旨在将来自不同职业阶段的研究人员聚集在一起，以促进学术讨论和合作，并在社区中传播新的主题和想法。 与会者，特别是研究生和其他早期职业研究人员，将接触到知名数学家的研究，这些研究可以激发、激励他们自己的研究，并为他们自己的研究提供新的方向。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。

The 49th John H. Barrett Memorial Lectures will be held on May 28-30, 2019 at the University of Tennessee, Knoxville. The year's Lectures are entitled "Recent Advancements in Number Theory" and will feature a number of hour long plenary talks by high profile mathematicians, as well as shorter talks given by mostly early career researchers. These talks will cover a range of topics in number theory and arithmetic geometry. For more information, please visit the conference website at: http://www.math.utk.edu/barrett/The Barrett Lectures began in 1970 as a tribute to Dr. John H. Barrett, a distinguished mathematician and influential Mathematics Department Head at the University of Tennessee. Over the years, the Lectures have covered a large number of mathematical topics (which this year topics coming from number theory and arithmetic geometry), and have developed a rich history of excellence. The Lectures are aimed to bring together researchers from various career stages in order to stimulate academic discussions and collaborations as well as to disseminate new topics and ideas among the community. Attendees, especially graduate students and other early career researchers, will be exposed to the research of high profile mathematicians, that can inspire, motivate, and give new directions to their own research.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.
