Conference on Geometry and Topology of Singularities

该奖项为2019年5月27-31日在布达佩斯匈牙利科学院阿尔弗雷德·伦伊数学研究所举行的国际会议《奇点的几何与拓扑学》提供了部分支持。会议的目的是将来自世界各地的资深和初级研究人员以及感兴趣的博士生聚集在一起，介绍和讨论代数几何、奇点理论和低维拓扑领域的旧问题、新发展和当前的研究前景。会议提供的国际会议和联网机会将有助于在不同国家向青年研究人员和代表性不足的群体传播科学成果。奇点理论研究函数、映射和空间的非类属情形的分类问题。它位于几何、代数和拓扑学的十字路口。自20世纪下半叶出现以来，它就得益于它的核心作用，将不同地区之间的方法和观念联系起来。由著名数学家所作的全会演讲将涵盖奇点理论的许多方面，如微分拓扑学、几何学、代数几何学、低维拓扑学、计数几何学以及全球奇点理论。更多信息可以在会议上找到，websitehttps://www.renyi.hu/conferences/nemethi60/This奖反映了美国国家科学基金会的法定使命，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 provides partial support for the international conference "Geometry and Topology of Singularities", held in Budapest, at the Alfred Renyi Institute of Mathematics of the Hungarian Academy of Sciences, May 27-31, 2019. The objective of the meeting is to bring together senior and junior researchers and interested PhD students from all over the world to present and discuss old problems, new developments and current research perspectives in the areas of algebraic geometry, singularity theory and low dimensional topology. The international meeting and networking opportunity provided by the conference will contribute to the dissemination of scientific results in different countries, among young researchers and underrepresented groups. Singularity theory studies the classification problems of non-generic situations of functions, maps, and spaces. It lies in the crossroads of geometry, algebra, and topology. Ever since its emergence in the second half of the 20th century it benefited from its central role, connecting methods and notions between different areas. The invited plenary lectures given by prominent mathematicians whose work has special connections to that of Andras Nemethi will cover many faces of singularity theory, such as differential topology, geometry, algebraic geometry, low dimensional topology, enumerative geometry, as well as the global theory of singularities.More information can be found on the conference websitehttps://www.renyi.hu/conferences/nemethi60/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.
