Graduate Student Workshops in Mathematics with Applications to Physics

摘要奖：DMS 1242046，主要研究者：John W.摩根这个奖项提供了部分支持研究生研讨会上的“弦现象学”（2012年7月）和“辛拓扑”（2012年10月）在斯托尼布鲁克大学。 西蒙斯中心在几何学，理论物理学以及两个领域之间的重叠领域的研究前沿有计划。这些计划汇集了高级研究人员，职业中期专家和博士后，他们对几何或物理学的主题有共同的兴趣。该项目的目的是向研究生展示这些领域，并让他们接触到该领域组装工人的专业知识。该项目要求举办专门针对研究生的讲习班，每次讲习班约邀请40名学生参加。研究生被邀请到中心，并在他们逗留期间，这将是一个星期或两个星期的支持。他们将听取该领域专家在所选领域的介绍性演讲，然后在研讨会上听取其他研究生的更专业的演讲。西蒙斯几何和物理中心的项目汇集了几何和物理领域各种主题的专家，交流思想并了解该领域其他工作者的成果。这是该领域的各种工作者了解其主题的所有最新趋势和想法的最佳方式之一。该项目通过在总体科学框架内提供专门针对研究生的活动来扩大这些方案的范围，这些研究生通常不包括在活动中。一个或两个星期是专门为研究生和大约40名学生被邀请到中心，并在他们逗留期间支持研讨会。在研讨会期间，该领域的专家发表了适合研究生的演讲;研究生也有更多的专业演讲。这使学生接触到该领域，接触到该领域的许多领先研究人员，以及其他有类似兴趣的研究生。这将使他们更容易融入该领域，并帮助他们开始自己的研究生涯。第一个研讨会的URL是：http://scgp.stonybrook.edu/archives/3978

AbstractAward: DMS 1242046, Principal Investigator: John W. MorganThis award provides partial support for graduate student workshops on "String Phenomenology" (July 2012) and "Symplectic Topology" (October 2012) at Stony Brook University. The Simons Center has programs at the cutting edge of research in geometry, in theoretical physics, and in areas of overlap between the two fields. These programs bring together senior researchers, mid-career experts, and postdocs with a common interest around a topic in geometry or physics. The purpose of this project is to expose these fields to graduate students and give them access to the expertise of the assembled workers in the field. The project calls for workshops aimed specifically at graduate students with approximately 40 students being invited to each workshop. The graduate students are invited to the Center and supported during their stay, which will be either one week or two weeks. They will listen to introductory talks in the chosen area by experts in the field, and then later in the workshop by more specialized talks by other graduate students.The programs at the Simons Center for Geometry and Physics bring together experts on various topics in geometry and physics to exchange ideas and to learn of the results of other workers in the field. This is one of the best ways for various workers in the field to become aware on all the latest trends and ideas in their subject. The project extends the scope of these programs by providing activities within the overall scientific framework aimed specifically at graduate students, who are not otherwise usually included in the activities. A week or two is dedicated to a workshop aimed at graduate students and approximately 40 students are invited to the Center and supported during their stay. During the workshop experts in the field give talks suitable for graduate students; also there are more specialized talks by the graduate students. This exposes the students to the field, to many of the leading researchers in the field, and to other graduate students with similar interests. This will ease their integration into the field and assist them as they launch their own research careers.The URL for the first of these workshops is: http://scgp.stonybrook.edu/archives/3978
