Conference: URiCA 2024 and 2025

该奖项支持研究生和博士后研究人员参加“即将到来的交换代数研究人员”（URiCA）会议，该会议将于2024年5月11日至12日在内布拉斯加州林肯市举行，并于2025年5月举行。URiCA（以前称为KUMUNU Jr）是由内布拉斯加大学林肯分校数学系主办的年度会议，旨在促进交换代数及相关领域的研究生和博士后之间的可见性和互动。在为期两天的会议中，将有来自研究生和博士后的十场演讲。这些讲座将讨论交换代数和相关数学领域的原创性研究。虽然URiCA最初专注于连接大平原地区的数学社区，但之前的成功使我们能够扩展我们的服务范围，并包括来自该地区以外的更多早期职业研究人员。会议的目标是帮助培养一个多样化和欢迎早期研究人员的社区，从而增加合作和接触交换代数中不同领域的研究。这次会议将继续为早期研究人员和数学领域代表性不足的群体提供一个机会，让他们分享他们的工作，并在同行中获得知名度。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 of graduate students and postdoctoral researchers in the conference "Upcoming Researchers in Commutative Algebra" (URiCA) to be held in Lincoln, Nebraska, May 11-12, 2024, and in May 2025. URiCA (formerly known as KUMUNU Jr), is an annual conference hosted by the Department of Mathematics at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln designed to promote visibility and interactions between graduate students and postdocs working in commutative algebra and related fields. The conference will feature ten talks from graduate students and postdocs over the span of two days. These talks will be on original research done in commutative algebra and related fields of mathematics. While URiCA was initially focused on connecting mathematical communities in the Great Plains region, previous success has allowed us to extend our outreach and include more early career researchers from outside this region. The goal of the conference is to help foster a diverse and welcoming community of early researchers leading to increased collaborations and exposure to different areas of research being done in commutative algebra. This conference will continue to provide an opportunity for early researchers and underrepresented groups in math to share their work and gain visibility among their peers.Conference Website: https://urica-unl.github.io/This 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.
