Algebraic Geometry Workshop, June 12-15, 2002, Urbana, Illinois

计划举办一个为期四天的代数几何讲习班，重点是研究生和初级教师的培训。 这种形式将强调参与者在导师的带领下以小组的形式一起工作。 该研讨会的目的是让学生和初级教师在代数几何的相关领域，重点放在堆栈，也许包括计算代数几何。 工作组将围绕这些子领域中的问题和主题进行组织。 高级教师将在全体会议上发表演讲，以确定总的方向。 预计研讨会的组成是大约60名研究生，15名初级教师，和8名高级教师。代数几何是多项式方程的代数性质和它们的解集的几何之间的关系的研究。 在过去的世纪中，代数几何被反复应用于纯代数和纯几何的广泛研究领域。 最近的应用出现在理论物理学，密码学和工程学。 该研讨会旨在补充初级代数几何学家所接受的其他形式的培训，为他们提供与同龄人和导师一起积极进行研究的经验。

A four day workshop in Algebraic Geometry is planned, focusing on thetraining of graduate students and junior faculty. The format willemphasize participants working together in small groups led bymentors. The workshop is designed to engage students and juniorfaculty in related areas of algebraic geometry focusing on stacks andperhaps including computational algebraic geometry. The workinggroups will organize around problems and topics within thesesubfields. Senior faculty will give plenary lectures to set thegeneral direction. The expected composition of the workshop isapproximately 60 graduate students, 15 junior faculty, and 8 seniorfaculty.Algebraic geometry is the study of the relationship between algebraicproperties of polynomial equations and the geometry of their solutionsets. During the past century, algebraic geometry has been appliedrepeatedly to a wide range of areas of study in pure algebra and puregeometry. More recently applications have emerged in theoreticalphysics, cryptography, and engineering. The workshop is designed tocomplement other forms of training received by junior algebraicgeometers, providing them the experience of actively doing researchwith their peers and mentors.
