Collaborative Research: Front Range Number Theory Day

前沿数论日（FRNTD）是一个新的，为期一天，一年两次的小型会议，其地点在春季的科罗拉多大学和秋季的科罗拉多州立大学之间交替举行。特别是，FRNTD将于2019年11月16日、2020年9月26日和2021年9月25日在科罗拉多州柯林斯堡举行；2020年4月25日、2021年4月24日和2022年4月23日在科罗拉多州博尔德举行。更详细的信息，包括过去的时间表和未来的计划，可以在https://sites.google.com/colorado.edu/front-range-number-theory-day上找到。科罗拉多的前山脉在数学上是丰富的，但在地理上是孤立的。这次会议为这个社区的学生和教师提供了一个易于参加的本地会议，演讲者和参与者来自整个Front Range和美国。它为当地的研究生和本科生提供了一个经济支持的机会，让他们能够向更广泛的受众展示自己的发现，并与之互动，而不需要长途旅行。此外，它还为来自全国各地的初级研究人员提供了一个场所，并为来自当地本科院校的学生和教师提供了一个会议机会。每个FRNTD都有三个主题演讲，其中至少一个面向本科生，以及一个额外的科学活动，如海报会议或一轮闪电演讲。通过选择一位当地的主讲人，以及为当地正在崛起的数论学家提供一个平台，我们支持FRNTD加强当地数论社区的目标。在选择邀请个人时，我们的目标之一是促进来自历史上代表性不足的群体和背景的数学家。由于许多参与者的兴趣，代数数论和算术几何领域在过去的FRNTDs上得到了很好的代表；然而，我们将继续邀请具有数论任何领域专业知识的参与者，他们的研究兴趣有助于合作和社区。该奖项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知识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 Front Range Number Theory Day (FRNTD) is a new, one-day, biannual miniconference whose location alternates between the University of Colorado in the spring and Colorado State University in the fall. In particular, FRNTD will be held in Fort Collins, CO, on November 16, 2019, September 26, 2020 and September 25, 2021; and in Boulder, CO, on April 25, 2020, April 24, 2021, and April 23, 2022. More detailed information, including past schedules and future plans, is available at https://sites.google.com/colorado.edu/front-range-number-theory-day. The Front Range of Colorado is mathematically rich, but geographically isolated. This conference serves the students and faculty of this community by providing an easy-to-attend local conference with speakers and participants from across the Front Range and the USA. It offers local graduate and undergraduate students a financially supported opportunity to present their findings to, and engage with, a wider audience, without requiring lengthy travel. Moreover, it provides a venue for junior researchers from around the country and a conference opportunity for students and faculty from local undergraduate-serving institutions.Each FRNTD features three keynote talks, with at least one accessible to undergraduates, and an additional scientific event, such as a poster session or a round of lightning talks. By choosing one local keynote speaker, as well as giving a platform for local rising number theorists, we support FRNTD's goal of strengthening the local community in number theory. In choosing individuals to invite, one of our goals is the promotion of mathematicians from historically underrepresented groups and backgrounds. Due to the interests of many of the participants, the areas of algebraic number theory and arithmetic geometry have been well represented at past FRNTDs; however, we will continue to invite participants with expertise in any area of number theory whose research interests facilitate collaboration and community.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.
