International Workshop on Concentration, Functional Inequalities and Isoperimetry; October - November 2009; Boca Raton, FL

该奖项将提供支持，以支付参加国际研讨会的研究人员的费用集中，功能不平等和Isoperimetry将于2009年10月29日至11月1日在佛罗里达大西洋大学。 支持将提供给参与者谁目前没有持有NSF奖，与一些全体发言人的例外。据了解，大部分资金将直接用于研究生，博士后和初级教师，但某些高级参与者也将获得资助。该计划将包括16个一小时的全体讲座和一些贡献的演讲。这次会议的主要目的是介绍年轻的数学家的领域，以及提供一个论坛，介绍目前的艺术理论。组织者打算让年轻数学家、女性数学家和其他代表性不足的群体的数学家积极参与，大部分资金将用于这些群体。研究生预计将参加会议。

This award will provide support to defray expenses of researchers participating in the International Workshop on Concentration, Functional Inequalities and Isoperimetry to be held October 29-November 1, 2009 at Florida Atlantic University. Support will be provided to participants who do not currently hold NSF awards, with exceptions made for some plenary speakers. It is understood that much of the funding will be directed to graduate students, postdocs, and junior faculty but that certain senior participants will be funded as well.The program will feature 16 one hour plenary lectures and a number of contributed talks. The principal objective of this meeting is to introduce young mathematicians to the field, as well as to provide a forum for presentation of the current state of the art of the theory. The organizers intend to actively involve young mathematicians, female mathematicians, and mathematicians from other under-represented groups, to which much of the funding will be directed. Graduate students are expected to participate at the meeting.
