Conference: Tensor Invariants in Geometry and Complexity Theory

会议张量不变量的几何和复杂性理论将于2024年5月13日至17日在奥本大学举行。本次会议旨在汇集早期职业研究人员和专家，研究张量不变量，它们在纯代数和微分几何中的出现，以及它们在代数复杂性理论和量子信息中的应用。研讨会将有经验丰富的专家和有前途的年轻研究人员的演讲。该活动旨在促进新的研究联系并启动新的合作。会议将向与会者展示涉及各种科学学科的最先进的研究成果。这些活动将支持进一步发展纯数学和每个科学重点领域（代数和微分几何，代数复杂性，量子信息）的“下游”应用。会议以几何中的不变量为中心，分为三个主题：代数和微分几何，张量和复杂性，量子计算和量子信息。几何一直是数学的基石，而不变量是关键。关于代数学和微分几何，组织者邀请专家演讲主题，如射影和微分几何之间的联系。在这些领域的考虑，如尺寸问题和定义割线变量的方程，导致了强大的工具，无论是在几何和应用领域，如计算复杂性和量子信息。同样，组织者也邀请了代数复杂性和量子信息领域的应用领域专家。纯数学和应用数学的这种自然并列将导致新的和有趣的联系，并有助于启动新的研究合作。除了由经验丰富的专家进行日常会谈外，会议还将包括海报会议中的年轻研究人员，并提供包括工作组活动在内的网络机会，以帮助早期职业研究人员与该领域的其他人会面，这将为新的（和正在进行的）研究合作提供机会。预计这些合作将在会议结束后很长一段时间内继续下去。该会议的网页是：https://webhome.auburn.edu/~lao0004/jmlConference.html.This奖反映了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。

The conference Tensor Invariants in Geometry and Complexity Theory will take place May 13-17, 2024 at Auburn University. This conference aims to bring together early-career researchers and experts to study tensor invariants, their appearance in pure algebraic and differential geometry, and their application in Algebraic Complexity Theory and Quantum Information. The workshop will feature talks from both seasoned experts and promising young researchers. The event is designed to facilitate new research connections and to initiate new collaborations. The conference will expose the participants to state-of-the-art research results that touch a variety of scientific disciplines. The activities will support further development of both pure mathematics and the "down-stream" applications in each area of scientific focus (Algebraic and Differential Geometry, Algebraic Complexity, Quantum Information). The conference is centered on invariants in geometry, divided into three themes: Algebraic and Differential Geometry, Tensors and Complexity, and Quantum Computing and Quantum Information. Geometry has long been a cornerstone of mathematics, and invariants are the linchpins. Regarding Algebraic and Differential Geometry, the organizers are inviting expert speakers on topics such as the connections between projective and differential geometry. Considerations in these areas, such as questions about dimensions and defining equations of secant varieties, have led to powerful tools both within geometry and applications in areas such as computational complexity and quantum information. Likewise, the organizers are inviting application-area experts in Algebraic Complexity and Quantum Information. This natural juxtaposition of pure and applied mathematics will lead to new and interesting connections and help initiate new research collaborations. In addition to daily talks by seasoned experts, the conference will include young researchers in a Poster Session and provide networking opportunities, including working group activities, to help early career researchers meet others in the field, which will provide opportunities for new (and ongoing) research collaborations. It is anticipated that these collaborations will continue long after the meeting is over.
