A Combinatorics Conference in Honor of Richard Stanley

理查德·斯坦利是组合数学的主要人物之一。他的工作一直具有根本的重要性，在许多领域的组合（特别是在该地区的枚举，格和偏序集，拟阵，和超平面安排）和连接之间的组合和其他领域，如交换代数，代数几何，代表性理论的对称和经典群体和李代数，拓扑结构。此外，他的两卷本教科书“枚举组合学”，以及他对众多学生的指导，对该领域的发展产生了巨大的影响。这次会议将介绍斯坦利的工作所取得的一些重要进展，并将他所从事的组合学不同领域的研究人员聚集在一起。会议将使这些领域的研究人员相互学习，并将促进组合学不同领域之间以及组合学与其他数学领域之间联系的进一步发展。NSF的支持将用于资助参与者的差旅费，特别是那些无法参加的人。为处于职业生涯早期阶段的研究人员提供差旅费将是一个优先事项。

Richard Stanley is one of the major figures in combinatorics. His work has been of fundamental importance in many areas of combinatorics (especially in the areas of enumeration, lattices and partially ordered sets, matroids, and hyperplane arrangements) and in connections between combinatorics and other fields such as commutative algebra, algebraic geometry, representation theory of symmetric and classical groups and Lie algebras, and topology. In addition, his two-volume textbook "Enumerative Combinatorics," and his advising of numerous students, have been enormously influential in the development of the field.This conference will put into perspective some of the important advances that have come from Stanley's work, and bring together researchers in the different areas of combinatorics in which he has worked. The conference will enable researchers in these fields to learn from each other, and will promote further development of the connections between different areas of combinatorics and between combinatorics and other areas of mathematics. Support from the NSF will be used to fund travel expenses of participants, especially those who would not otherwise be able to attend. Funding of travel expenses for researchers in early stages of the their careers will be a priority.
