Graduate Workshop in Commutative Algebra for Underrepresented Minorities

本次研讨会将于2019年4月12日至14日在明尼苏达大学举行。 该研讨会将重点放在形成一个社区的研究人员从代表性不足的社区感兴趣的交换代数。该研讨会主要针对博士学位第一年至第三年的研究生。程序. 该研讨会的目标是（a）向与会者介绍交换代数的前沿研究课题，（B）促进与会者和交换代数教师之间形成指导关系，（c）加强交换代数及周边领域代表性不足的研究人员的网络，以及（d）发展跨越标准主题合作并涉及不同研究人员群体的合作关系。研讨会将包括杰出研究人员的演讲，积极的小组工作，参与者展示自己研究的机会，以及社区建设活动。 该研讨会将有四个50分钟的全体讲座由终身或终身教职的教师，四个20分钟的高年级格拉德生的演讲，并鼓励所有非演讲者的参与者两个海报会议。此外，为了帮助与会者更好地理解全体会议上提出的技术和方法，将有讨论会和问题会议，以积极工作。 全体会议的谈话是围绕交换代数，但预期的发言者有兴趣交叉表示理论，代数几何，组合数学和计算代数。 会议网站可以在www.example.com上找到https://juliettebruce.github.io/gwcawmmg/.This奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并被认为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进行评估来支持。

This workshop will be held April 12-14, 2019 at the University of Minnesota. The workshop will focus on forming a community of researchers from underrepresented communities interested in commutative algebra. The workshop is primarily aimed at graduate students in their first through third years of a Ph.D. program. The goals of the workshop are to (a) introduce participants to cutting edge research topics in commutative algebra, (b) facilitate the formation of mentoring relationships between participants and faculty in commutative algebra, (c) strengthen the network of underrepresented researchers in commutative algebra and surrounding fields, and (d) develop collaborative relationships that cut across standard topic-collaborations and involve diverse groups of researchers. The workshop will include presentations from prominent researchers, active group work, opportunities for participants to present their own research, and community building activities. The workshop will have four 50-minute plenary lectures given by tenured or tenure-track faculty, four 20-minute talks given by senior grad students, and two poster sessions encouraged for all non-speaker participants. Furthermore, in order to help participants better understand the techniques and methods presented in the plenary talks, there will be discussion sessions and problem sessions for active work. The plenary talks are centered around commutative algebra, but the intended speakers have interests intersecting representation theory, algebraic geometry, combinatorics, and computational algebra.
