Southern California Geometric Analysis Seminar

该奖项将为2008年、2009年和2010年每个冬季季度举行的南加州几何分析研讨会提供为期三年的部分支持。几何分析是现代数学的重要组成部分，涉及到数学的许多分支。它以分析为主要工具，以微分几何、拓扑学和代数几何为基础，解决了全球几何、拓扑和几个复杂变量中的大量问题。这些年度会议由加州大学圣地亚哥分校和加州大学欧文分校组织，汇集了来自加州大学南部的几何分析和相关主题的研究人员，包括加州大学洛杉矶分校、南加州大学、加州大学洛杉矶分校和加州理工大学。这些研讨会促进了几何分析和相关领域的数学家之间的互动，并向研究生和博士后介绍了几何分析中一些最重要的最新工作。组织者优先考虑研究生和新近的博士，特别是代表不足的群体的成员。日程安排将使与会者有充足的时间与演讲者和彼此进行讨论。

This award will provide partial support for three years for the Southern California Geometric Analysis Seminar to be held each winter quarter in 2008, 2009, and 2010. Geometric analysis is an important part of the modern mathematics and is related to many other branches of mathematics. Using analysis as its main tool and differential geometry, topology and algebraic geometry as foundations, it has solved a large number of problems in global geometry, topology, and several complex variables.These annual conferences are organized by UC San Diego and UC Irvine, and bring together researchers in geometric analysis and related topics from universities in the southern California including UCI, UCLA, UCR, USC, UCSD, UCSB, and CalTech. These Seminars promote interaction among mathematicians in geometric analysis and related areas and introduce graduate students and post-docs to some of the most important recent work in geometric analysis.The organizers place a priority on the participation of graduate students and recent PhDs, especially members in underrepresented groups. The schedule will be arranged so that there will be ample time for the participants to have discussions with the speakers and each other.
