International Conference on Several Complex Variables, Complex Geometry and Partial Differential Equations

该奖项用于资助美国参加2009年7月6日至10日在中国武汉大学举行的“几种复变量、复几何和偏微分方程”国际会议。会议的主要议题将是几个复变量的代数、解析和几何方法，这是纯数学中最重要的领域之一。这些领域也与许多其他数学分支，如经典分析与动力学、代数几何、偏微分方程、微分几何、现代理论物理、辛几何等有着深刻的联系。会议的目的是为专家之间的思想和最新发展提供方便的交流机会。更重要的是，它将使博士生和初级学者有机会与他们感兴趣的领域的顶尖数学家见面。这将有助于他们熟悉尚未解决的问题和新的研究方向，从而促进他们未来的职业发展。这些资金将部分用于支持来自美国的10名全体会议发言人和11名学生和年轻研究者。

This award is for partial funding US participation in an International Conference on Several Complex Variables, Complex Geometry and Partial Differential Equations to take place in Wuhan University, China, during the period of July 6-10, 2009. The main topics of the conference will be on the algebraic, analytic and geometric methods in Several Complex Variables which are among the most vital areas in pure mathematics. These areas also have profound connections with many other branches of mathematics such as classical analysis and dynamics, algebraic geometry, partial differential equations, differential geometry, modern theoretical physics, symplectic geometry, etc. The conference intends to provide opportunities for easy exchange of ideas and recent developments among experts. More importantly, it will give PhD students and junior scholars the opportunity to meet leading mathematicians in their areas of interest. This will help them to be familiar with unsolved problems and new research directions, and thus promote their future career development. The funds will be used to partially support 10 plenary speakers from the US and 11 students and young investigators.
