Conference: Fairfield Algebra Regional Meeting (FARM)

该奖项支持参加2023年12月2日在康涅狄格州费尔菲尔德举行的群论会议。本次会议是计划中的年度系列会议的首次会议，该系列会议将在轮换的基础上关注代数的各个领域。群论，这是第一年的主题，是一个非常活跃的数学领域，具有重要的应用，如密码学。这次活动将有助于促进在新英格兰和纽约大都会地区建立一个有凝聚力的代数社区。美国国家科学基金会的资金将用于支持研究生、博士后研究员和早期职业教师的旅行。这次会议旨在重新创造代数方面的本地交流机会，这种机会由于新冠肺炎大流行而变得不那么频繁，并为早期职业数学家创造指导机会。费尔菲尔德代数区域会议（FARM）的第一次会议将包括一系列为期一天的会议。将举行4次较长时间的全体会议（45分钟以上）。此外，还将为受邀演讲者和贡献演讲提供三个半小时的演讲时段（并行运行）。讲座将提供机会展示来自不同职业阶段的数学家。各种不同领域的群论将被代表，包括应用群论，有限群，无限群，和几何群论。更多信息可在会议网站http://faculty.fairfield.edu/pbaginski/FARM2023/index.htmlThis获得。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。

This award supports participation in a conference on group theory in Fairfield, CT on December 2nd, 2023. This conference is the inaugural meeting of a planned annual conference series that will focus on various fields of algebra, on a rotating basis. Group theory, the theme of this first year, is a very active field of mathematics with important applications such as in cryptography. This event will help facilitate the creation of a cohesive algebraic community in New England and the New York metropolitan area. The NSF funding will allow for travel support of graduate students, postdoctoral fellows, and early career faculty. The meeting is intended to re-create local networking opportunities in algebra, which became less frequent as a result of the Covid-19 pandemic, and to create mentoring opportunities for early career mathematicians. The first meeting of the Fairfield Algebra Regional Meeting (FARM) will consist of a series of talks for a daylong event. There will be four longer plenary talks (45 minutes or longer). There will also be three slots for half-hour talks for invited speakers and contributed talks (run in parallel). The talks will give the opportunity to showcase mathematicians from different career stages. A variety of different areas of group theory will be represented, including applied group theory, finite groups, infinite groups, and geometric group theory. More information is available at the conference website http://faculty.fairfield.edu/pbaginski/FARM2023/index.htmlThis 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.
