Mathematical Sciences: Algebraic Combinations

该奖项支持J. Stembridge教授的研究 来研究组合数学 他打算调查这个理论 的固有量，研究对称函数， 李超代数与Weyl群的投射表示。 他还希望找到一种更快的算法来计算体积 与经典不变理论有关。 该研究是在组合学的一般领域。 组合数学试图找到有效的方法来研究如何 可以组织对象的离散集合。 所以， 对现代通信非常重要，例如 大型网络的设计，如电话系统和设计 计算机科学中的算法。

This award supports the research of Professor J. Stembridge to work in combinatorics. He intends to investigate the theory of immanants, study symmetric functions, the representations of Lie superalgebras and projective representation of Weyl groups. He also hopes to find a faster algorithm for computing plethysms relevant to classical invariant theory. The research is in the general area of combinatorics. Combinatorics attempts to find efficient methods to study how discrete collections of objects can be organized. And so, it is extremely important to modern communications, for example the design of large networks as in telephone systems and the design of algorithms in computer science.
