This award provides support for participation by junior researchers, graduate students, undergraduates, and high school teachers in the 34th Midwestern Conference on Combinatorics and Combinatorial Computing (MCCCC34), which will be held at Illinois State University in Normal, Illinois, on October 21-23, 2022. The MCCCC began as the Carbondale Combinatorics Conferences which were held (1986-1990) at Southern Illinois University in Carbondale. The conference has since evolved into a prestigious national conference in all areas of combinatorics and combinatorial computing. It has achieved recognition and attracted scholars and researchers of various backgrounds from national and international institutions. A recent trend in the MCCCC series is the increased participation of graduate and undergraduate student researchers. The conference will feature 6 principal 50-minute speakers and about 60 contributed 20-minute talks by participants from throughout the nation and other parts of the world. We estimate around 100 participants will attend. The selection process for funding support will prioritize women, members of underrepresented groups, people with disabilities, veterans, and students. The Conference is supported in part by Illinois State University and by the Institute for Combinatorics and its Applications.After a 2-year hiatus due to the pandemic, we aim to nurture and expand the opportunities at the MCCCC34 by making mathematics research more accessible and inclusive, and emphasizing recruitment and support for both graduate and undergraduate students. MCCCC34 will cover a spectrum of pure and applied combinatorics, including graph theory, design theory, enumeration, and combinatorial computing. The conference will provide a conducive atmosphere for research mathematicians, graduate students, undergraduate students, and others interested in combinatorics and combinatorial computing to explore and discuss a variety of research problems in these areas, particularly problems that have a connection to both areas. The conference organizers aim to publish the conference proceedings in a research journal.

该奖项为初级研究人员，研究生，本科生和高中教师参加第34届中西部组合数学和组合计算会议（MCCC34）提供支持，该会议将于2022年10月21日至23日在伊利诺伊州伊利诺伊州州立大学举行。MCCC开始作为卡本代尔组合数学会议举行（1986年至1990年）在南伊利诺伊大学卡本代尔。该会议已发展成为一个著名的全国性会议在所有领域的组合和组合计算。它获得了认可，吸引了来自国家和国际机构的各种背景的学者和研究人员。MCCC系列的一个最近趋势是研究生和本科生研究人员的参与增加。会议将有来自全国各地和世界其他地区的6位主要发言人和大约60位20分钟的发言人。我们预计将有约100名与会者参加。资金支持的选择过程将优先考虑妇女、代表性不足的群体成员、残疾人、退伍军人和学生。会议得到伊利诺伊州立大学和组合数学及其应用研究所的部分支持。在因疫情中断两年之后，我们的目标是通过使数学研究更容易获得和包容，并强调对研究生和本科生的招聘和支持，来培育和扩大MCCC34的机会。MCCC34将涵盖纯组合学和应用组合学的范围，包括图论，设计理论，枚举和组合计算。会议将为研究数学家，研究生，本科生和其他对组合数学和组合计算感兴趣的人提供有利的氛围，以探索和讨论这些领域的各种研究问题，特别是与这两个领域有关的问题。 会议组织者的目标是在一份研究期刊上发表会议记录。该会议的网站可以在：https://about.illinoisstate.edu/mcccc34/.This奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并已被认为是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的支持。
