Texas Algebraic Geometry Symposium

此补助金支持得克萨斯州代数几何研讨会（TAGS）。TAGS是自2005年以来每年春季举行的周末区域会议，由莱斯大学、德克萨斯大学奥斯汀分校和德克萨斯农工大学轮流主办。 该研讨会汇集了来自德克萨斯州和邻国的许多高级数学家。 虽然许多参与机构都有贯穿整个学年的代数几何研讨会，但每个地点的观众都很小。TAGS提供了区域集中的好处：我们在短时间内有许多发言者，他们可以在一个地方接触到许多听众。我们的目标是带来一个优秀的扬声器谁是做尖端的研究在代数几何的许多子领域的多样化集合。为学生和年轻研究人员提供背景讲座;为研究生提供海报会议，让他们获得专家的反馈和接触。代数几何是一个广泛的数学领域，涉及多项式方程组的解决方案的研究。 它与数学的许多领域（数论、辛几何、表示论、数学物理等）有着充分的联系，其应用在各种环境中（机器人、编码理论、复杂性理论等）产生反响。 像TAGS这样的会议帮助代数几何学家跟上这个快速发展的数学领域的最新发展。

This grant supports the Texas Algebraic Geometry Symposium (TAGS). TAGS is a weekend regional meeting held each spring since 2005, hosted in turn by Rice University, the University of Texas at Austin and Texas A&M University. The workshop brings together many senior mathematicians from Texas and neighboring states. Although many participating institutions have Algebraic Geometry seminars that run through the academic year, the audience at each location is small. TAGS provides regional concentration benefits: we have many speakers in a short time who can reach many listeners in one place. We aim to bring a diverse collection of excellent speakers who are doing cutting-edge research across the many subfields of Algebraic Geometry. Background talks are given for the benefit of students and young researchers; there is a poster session for graduate students to afford them both feedback from and exposure to experts.Algebraic geometry is a broad field of mathematics concerned with the study of solutions to systems of polynomial equations. It has amply documented connections to many areas of mathematics (number theory symplectic geometry, representation theory, mathematical physics, etc.), and its applications reverberate in a variety of contexts (robotics, coding theory, complexity theory, etc.). Conferences like TAGS help algebraic geometers stay abreast of current developments in this rapidly-evolving area of mathematics.
