Workshop/Conference on Representation Theory of Groups and Finite-Dimensional Algebras; August 4-13, 1993 Curacao, Netherlands Antilles

这一美洲方案奖将部分资助一群来自加勒比地区和拉丁美洲的数学家参加群和有限维代数表示理论研讨会/会议的旅费，由加勒比数学基金会(CMF)赞助。研讨会将于1993年8月4日至13日在荷属安的列斯群岛的库拉索市举行。盖恩斯维尔佛罗里达大学的豪尔赫·马丁内斯博士是组织者，佛罗里达大学的杰弗里·R·罗宾逊博士是联合组织者。研讨会将包括概述讲座，介绍群的表示论和有限维代数。讲习班的主要目的是通过增加参加讲习班的青年研究人员和学生的知识和背景，为该地区的数学发展作出贡献。该讲习班/会议的会议记录将出版，并将向该地区的个人和图书馆免费提供几卷著作。该计划将汇集来自发达数学界的数学家以及他们来自加勒比地区和拉丁美洲的同事。演讲者中有几位站在该领域研究前沿的著名数学家。从国际角度来看，好处将包括在不同国家的数学家之间为未来的研究合作建立对话和沟通；促进科学知识的国际交流；通过与发达国家的知名研究人员和数学研究所建立联系，加强该区域各国的数学基础设施。

This Americas Program award will partially support travel expenses of a group of mathematicians from the Caribbean region and from Latin America to a workshop/conference on representation theory of groups and finite- dimensional algebras, sponsored by the Caribbean Mathematics Foundation, (CMF). The workshop will take place in Curacao, Netherlands Antilles, August 4 - 13, 1993. Dr. Jorge Martinez, University of Florida, Gainesville, is the organizer, with Dr. Geoffrey R. Robinson, University of Florida as coorganizer. The workshop will consist of survey lectures, presenting an introduction to Representation Theory of Groups and Finite Dimensional Algebras. The main objective of the workshop is to contribute to the development of mathematics in the region by adding to the knowledge and background of the participating young researchers and students. The proceedings of this workshop/conference will be published, and several volumes of the work will be made available, free of charge, to individuals and libraries in the Region. The program will bring together mathematicians from the developed mathematical community and their colleagues from the Caribbean region and Latin America. Among the speakers are several eminent mathematicians who are at the cutting edge of research in the field. From the international perspective, benefits will include establishment of dialogue and communication for future research collaboration between mathematicians from different countries; promotion of the international exchange of scientific knowledge; and strengthening of the mathematical infrastructure of the countries of the region through linkages to prominent researchers and mathematical institutes in developed countries.
