Conference: Women+ and Mathematics Program

该奖项支持高等研究院(IAS)妇女与数学(W AM)计划的两次迭代。该项目创建于1994年，得到了美国国家科学基金会、高等研究院和普林斯顿大学的支持。W AM的首要任务是在数学领域招聘和留住更多的女性，以应对参加数学培训的男女人数最初不平衡的问题，以及在数学职业生涯的每个关键过渡阶段，女性数学家的流失率高于男性同行的问题。W AM项目最集中的部分是5月份为期一周的年度项目，该项目围绕当前研究兴趣的一个数学主题组织。对于即将到来的两个项目，除了讲师和研讨会演讲者等高级数学家外，将有大约32名参与者，从本科生到博士后学者，他们将作为IAS数学社区的一部分，与其他数学家在一起度过一周，其中许多人在附近的研究领域。2024年5月，该项目的主题是“对称与算术”，两个系列讲座分别是伦敦帝国理工学院的Ana Caraiani的“朗兰兹计划一瞥”和密歇根大学的Charlotte Chan的“Deligne-Lusztig理论：实例和应用”。2025年的计划将在代数和几何组合学领域。除了两个讲座课程外，科学课程还包括由博士后学者主持的每门课程的问题会议、研究研讨会和座谈。还有为参与者安排的小组讨论和其他元数学和社交活动。更多信息可在项目网页上获得，https://www.ias.edu/math/wam.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 two iterations of the Women+ and Mathematics (W+AM) Program at the Institute for Advanced Study (IAS). The program was created in 1994 with the support of the National Science Foundation, the Institute for Advanced Study, and Princeton University. The overarching mission of W+AM is to recruit and retain more women in mathematics in order to counter the initial imbalance in the numbers of men and women entering mathematics training as well as the higher attrition rate of female mathematicians compared to their male counterparts at every critical transition stage in mathematical careers. The most concentrated part of the W+AM program is the week-long annual program in May, which is organized around a mathematical topic of current research interest. For each of the upcoming two programs, there will be approximately 32 participants, ranging from undergraduates to postdoctoral scholars, in addition to senior mathematicians, such as lecturers and seminar speakers, who will spend a week as part of the IAS mathematical community surrounded by other mathematicians, many in nearby research areas. In May 2024, the program will be on "Symmetry and Arithmetic," and the two lecture series will be "A glimpse into the Langlands program" by Ana Caraiani of Imperial College London and "Deligne-Lusztig theory: examples and applications" by Charlotte Chan of the University of Michigan. The 2025 program will be in the area of algebraic and geometric combinatorics. In addition to the two lecture courses, the scientific program is rounded out by problem sessions for each course led by postdoctoral scholars, research seminars, and colloquia. There are also panel discussions and other meta-mathematical and social activities arranged for and by the participants.
