KUMUNUjr

第二届KUMUNUJr年度会议将于2013年4月6日至7日在内布拉斯加大学林肯分校举行。KUMUNU是由堪萨斯大学（KU）、密苏里大学（MU）和内布拉斯加州大学（NU）主办的年度周末会议，重点关注交换代数、代数几何和相关数学领域的最新研究。KUMUNUJr面向在这些领域工作的研究生和最近的博士，并为中西部研究交换代数的年轻数学家提供了一个机会，让他们彼此分享他们的研究和专业知识。交换代数是一门活跃的学科，与代数几何、聚类代数、组合学、同调代数、表示论、统计学等学科都有联系。中西部交换代数研究继续反映更大的交换代数研究社区的活动和多样性。与其他研究人员的定期互动对数学家的专业发展至关重要，参加研究会议是数学家研究计划发展的关键部分。KUMUNUJr将为这些年轻的数学家提供一个交流思想、接触新思想、开发新的合作研究项目以及在同行中寻找导师的机会。会议的规模相对较小，重点放在区域开展的工作上，这将创造一种气氛，加强每一项研究和指导活动。要注册或了解更多信息，请访问http://www.math.unl.edu/programs/kumunujr/

The second annual KUMUNUJr conference will take place April 6-7, 2013 at the University of Nebraska--Lincoln. KUMUNU is an annual weekend conference anchored by the University of Kansas (KU), University of Missouri (MU) and University of Nebraska (NU), which focuses on current research in commutative algebra, algebraic geometry and related areas of mathematics. KUMUNUJr is geared toward graduate students and recent PhDs working in these fields and provides an opportunity for young mathematicians studying commutative algebra in the Midwest to share their research and expertise with one another. Commutative algebra is an active discipline, with connections to algebraic geometry, cluster algebras, combinatorics, homological algebra, representation theory, statistics and other disciplines. Midwestern commutative algebra research continues to reflect the activity and diversity of the larger commutative algebra research community.Regular interaction with other researchers is essential to a mathematician's professional development, and participation in research conferences is a crucial part of the development of a mathematician's research program. KUMUNUJr will provide an opportunity for these young mathematicians to exchange ideas, to encounter new ideas, to develop new collaborative research projects, and to find mentors among their peers. The relatively small size of the meeting and the focus on work carried out regionally will create an atmosphere that will enhance each of these research and mentoring activities.
