Third Midwest-Southeastern Atlantic Joint Regional Conference on Differential Equations, Nashville, Tennessee, November 7-9, 1997

抽象喇叭 本提案要求对拟于1997年11月7日至9日在范德比尔特大学举行的东南大西洋地区和中西部微分方程会议的联席会议给予部分支持。 这些联席会议每五年举行一次，在参加机构的校园之间轮流举行。 特别强调支持妇女，少数民族和年轻研究人员的参与，主要目标之一是资助高级研究生和最近的博士生，使他们能够展示自己的研究并与更广泛的数学界互动。

Abstract Horn This proposal requests partial support for a joint meeting of the Southeastern-Atlantic Region and the Midwest Conferences on Differential Equations to be held at Vanderbilt University on November 7-9, 1997. These joint meetings occur at five year intervals and rotate among the campuses of the participating institutions. Particular emphasis is given to supporting the participation of women, minorities, and young investigators, and one of the primary goals is to fund advanced graduate students and recent PhDs, allowing them to present their own research and interact with the broader mathematical community.
