Conference "Extremal problems in complex and real analysis"

这项提议是为了支持美国的与会者参加将于2007年5月22日至26日在俄罗斯莫斯科的俄罗斯人民友谊大学举行的“复杂和真实分析中的极端问题”会议。会议的统一主题是极值问题的解在泛函理论研究的各个领域中所起的作用，例如解析函数的巴拿赫空间和函数相关算子理论以及近似理论与复调和分析之间的相互作用。会议的目标是双重的：它有一个教育部分和一个研究部分。B.Bojanov（保加利亚科学院和索菲亚大学）、P.Duren（密歇根大学）和E.Saff（范德比尔特大学）将讲授三门迷你课程。每个迷你课程都将针对广泛的受众，包括高级研究生。此外，还将有受邀的研究讲座和较短的贡献研究讲座。预计会议将有一个庞大的、来自国际不同领域的专家团体参加，特别强调初级教师、博士后和高级研究生的参与。

The proposal is to support US-based participants in the conference "Extremal Problems in Complex and Real Analysis," which will be held at Peoples Friendship University of Russia, Moscow, Russia, on May 22-26, 2007. The unifying theme of the conference is the role that solutions of extremal problems play in various areas of function-theoretic research, such as Banach spaces of analytic functions and function-related operator theory and the interplay between approximation theory and complex and harmonic analysis. The goal of the conference is twofold: it has an educational component and a research component. There will be three minicourses given by B.Bojanov (Bulgarian Academy of Science and University of Sophia), P.Duren (University of Michigan), and E.Saff (Vanderbilt University). Each minicourse will target a wide audience, including advanced graduate students. In addition, there will be invited research talks and shorter contributed research talks. It is expected that the conference will be attended by a large, internationally diverse group of experts in the field, with a special emphasis placed on participation by junior faculty, postdocs, and advanced graduate students.
