Wabash Modern Analysis Seminar and Mini-Conference

该奖项支持参加2020-2022年沃巴什研讨会和迷你会议系列会议，包括在印第安纳州克劳福德斯维尔的沃巴什学院举行的研讨会，以及秋季在印第安纳大学-普渡大学印第安纳波利斯校区举行的一年一度的周末迷你会议。下一次年度小型会议的暂定日期是2020年9月19日至20日。Wabash研讨会和迷你会议系列的主要目标是将中西部地区从事现代分析工作的研究人员社区与来自更远地区的知名研究人员聚集在一起，以促进富有成效的互动，并鼓励在现代数学分析不同领域工作的研究人员之间的合作。多年来，研讨会和小型会议吸引了来自印第安纳大学、IUPUI、普渡大学、伊利诺伊大学、辛辛那提大学、范德比尔特大学和圣路易斯华盛顿大学等地区机构的众多教职员工、博士后研究人员和研究生。Wabash研讨会系列为初级研究人员提供了一个极好的机会，让他们接触和了解该领域最新的主要数学发展。此外，该系列还提供了一个宝贵的机会来促进中西部地区的研究，帮助该地区的初级教师、博士后和研究生在更广泛的数学界中接触到他们的研究，建立网络，并向他们传播他们的研究。Wabash研讨会和Mini-Conference系列还用于促进和指导有才华的本科生，为他们进入研究生院和数学研究生涯做准备。Wabash研讨会和Mini-Conference系列由来自印第安纳大学、IUPUI、普渡大学和伊利诺伊大学厄巴纳-香槟分校四个数学系的研究人员联合举办。这些大学的研究小组拥有互补的专业知识，涵盖了算子代数和算子理论的许多主要研究方向：自由概率、von Neumann代数、非交换和粗几何、C*代数及其拓扑不变量、算子空间、非交换调和分析以及与量子信息理论、遍历理论和动力系统以及数论的联系。沃巴什学院的定期研讨会定于周六下午举行。每个研讨会邀请两名一小时的演讲者，让与会者有充足的时间进行讨论。迷你会议在一个周末举行，从周六上午到周日下午早些时候。7位全体演讲者被邀请进行50分钟的演讲，30分钟的邀请和贡献的演讲由博士后、研究生、本科生和来访者进行。沃巴什研讨会和迷你会议系列的网站是：https://www.math.purdue.edu/~tsincla/wabash/.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 the 2020 - 2022 meetings of the Wabash Seminar and Mini-Conference series, which consists of seminars held at Wabash College in Crawfordsville, Indiana, and an annual weekend mini-conference held in the fall on the Indiana University – Purdue University Indianapolis (IUPUI) campus. The tentative dates of the next annual mini-conference are September 19-20, 2020. The main goal of Wabash Seminar and Mini-Conference series is to bring together the community of researchers working in modern analysis in the Midwest region, along with established researchers from farther afield, in order to stimulate fruitful interactions and encourage collaboration among researchers working in different areas of modern mathematical analysis. Over the years, the seminar and mini-conference have attracted numerous faculty members, postdoctoral researchers, and graduate students from Indiana University, IUPUI, Purdue University, University of Illinois, University of Cincinnati, Vanderbilt University, and Washington University in St. Louis, among other regional institutions. The Wabash Seminar series offers an excellent opportunity for junior researchers to be exposed to, and informed about, the latest major mathematical developments in the field. Additionally, the series provides an invaluable opportunity to promote research in the Midwest region, helping junior faculty, postdocs, and graduate students in the region to gain exposure within, network with, and disseminate their research to the broader mathematical community. The Wabash Seminar and Mini-Conference series also serves to promote and mentor talented undergraduate students, preparing them for graduate school and research careers in mathematics.The Wabash Seminar and the Mini-Conference series is jointly organized by researchers from four mathematics departments: Indiana University, IUPUI, Purdue University, and the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. The research groups from these universities have complementary expertise that spans many of the major directions of research in operator algebras and operator theory: free probability, von Neumann algebras, non-commutative and coarse geometry, C*-algebras and their topological invariants, operator spaces, and non-commutative harmonic analysis as well as connections to quantum information theory, ergodic theory and dynamical systems, and number theory. The regular seminars at Wabash College are scheduled on Saturday afternoons. Two one-hour speakers are invited for each seminar with ample time for discussions among the participants. The Mini-Conference is held over a weekend, from Saturday morning to early afternoon Sunday. Seven plenary speakers are invited to give 50-minute talks, and 30-minute invited and contributed talks are given by postdocs, graduate students, undergraduate students, and visitors.The website for the Wabash Seminar and Mini-Conference series is: https://www.math.purdue.edu/~tsincla/wabash/.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.
