U.S.-Hungarian Research and Workshops in Discrete Geometry and Convexity

奥本大学的Wlodzimierz Kuperberg和他的合作伙伴匈牙利科学院SciencesÆ数学研究所的Gabor Fejes Toth将组织一对以离散几何和凸性为主题的美国-匈牙利讲习班。计划包括1999年7月在匈牙利布达佩斯举行第一次讲习班，2000年3月在阿拉巴马州奥本举行第二次讲习班。目的是加强两国之间的研究联系，以匈牙利在数学理论方面的优势和美国在运筹学和计算机科学方面的优势为基础。结果有望培养新的美国-匈牙利研究团队和随后的出版物，主题包括：填料密度，Helly和Radon类型结果，与运动规划和图形相关的问题，以及凸性理论的新方法。这些几何分析数学研讨会实现了促进科学知识的计划目标，使美国和中欧的专家能够在共同感兴趣和能力强的领域结合互补的人才和共享研究资源。

INT 9813982KuperbergA pair of U.S.-Hungarian workshops featuring topics in discrete geometry and convexity shall be organized by Wlodzimierz Kuperberg of Auburn University and his partner, Gabor Fejes Toth of the Hungarian Academy of SciencesÆ Institute of Mathematics. Plans involve holding the initial workshop in Budapest, Hungary, during July 1999 and a second in Auburn, Alabama, during March 2000. The intent is to strengthen research ties between the two communities that will build upon Hungarian strengths in mathematical theory and U.S. strengths in operation research and computer science. Results are expected to foster new U.S.-Hungarian research teams and subsequent publications in subjects featuring: packing density, Helly and Radon type results, problems related to motion planning and graphs, and new methods in convexity theory.These mathematical workshops in geometric analysis fulfill the program objective of advancing scientific knowledge by enabling experts in the United States and Central Europe to combine complementary talents and share research resources in areas of strong mutual interest and competence.
