Conference: The Adjoint School: A Training Program for New Researchers in Applied Category Theory

该奖项支持2022年7月11日至15日在英国格拉斯哥斯特拉斯克莱德大学举行的联合学校研究周的美国参与者。联合学校2022为应用范畴理论的早期职业研究人员提供指导和社区，从2月到6月将他们聚集在一起进行每两周一次的虚拟协作，然后亲自参加联合学校研究周，随后是国际应用范畴理论会议。联合学校每年举办一次，是一个学生主导的、国际化的、亲身实践的研究培训计划，每年为16-20名新学生提供服务，以前的参与者作为教学助理和组织者回来。联合学院的项目集中在使用范畴理论中的技术--一种系统和关系的数学语言--来解决科学和工程中的实际问题，与学术和工业需求有关。这所学校的核心是围绕社区建设而设计的，反映了数学研究的强烈社会性。作为其中的一部分，该学院特别致力于在应用范畴理论研究社区以及更广泛的数学社区中促进包容性、可及性和多样性。2022年，联合学院包括以下项目和导师：组成热力学(斯宾塞·布赖纳，美国国家标准与技术研究所)，意见动力学模糊类型理论(佩奇·诺斯，美国宾夕法尼亚大学)，时间和概率过程组成理论(Nicoletta Sabadini，意大利Insubria大学)，以及逻辑和关系中的代数结构(Filippo Bonchi，意大利比萨大学)。该项目将为期五个月的虚拟协作部分与密集的面对面周相结合，为学生提供研究过程中所有技能的练习，包括阅读和讨论论文、非正式演示和协作、说明性博客写作、会议演讲、撰写论文，以及相关的编程。更多细节可以在http://adjointschool.com.This奖项上找到，该奖项反映了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 supports US-based participants in the Adjoint School Research Week, held at the University of Strathclyde, Glasgow, UK over July 11–15, 2022. The Adjoint School 2022 provides mentorship and community for early-career researchers in applied category theory, bringing them together for fortnightly virtual collaboration from February to June, and then in person for the Adjoint School Research Week, followed by the International Conference on Applied Category Theory. Held annually, the Adjoint School is a student-led, international, hands-on research training program serving 16-20 new students each year, with previous participants returning as teaching assistants and organizers. Adjoint School projects center on using techniques in category theory -- a mathematical language of systems and relationships -- to solve practical problems in science and engineering, relevant to both academic and industry needs. At core, the school is designed around community-building, reflecting the strongly social nature of mathematics research. As part of this, the school is especially committed to advancing inclusivity, access, and diversity in the applied category theory research community, and in the mathematics community more broadly. In 2022, the Adjoint School comprises the following projects and mentors: Compositional Thermodynamics (Spencer Breiner, National Institute of Standards and Technologies, USA), Fuzzy Type Theory for Opinion Dynamics (Paige North, University of Pennsylvania, USA), A Compositional Theory of Timed and Probabilistic Processes (Nicoletta Sabadini, University of Insubria, Italy), and Algebraic Structures in Logic and Relations (Filippo Bonchi, University of Pisa, Italy). The program combines a five-month virtual collaboration component with an intensive in-person week, and gives students practice across all skills of the research process, including reading and discussing papers, informal presentations and collaboration, expository blog writing, conference talks, writing papers, and, where relevant, programming.
