Mathematics Research Communities

美国数学学会（AMS）创建了数学研究社区（MRC）作为一个国家计划，以支持和指导年轻的数学家，因为他们开始他们的研究生涯。 在2014年，有四个MRC会议建议，都将在犹他州的雪鸟举行：集群代数，2014年6月8日至14日;应用数学中的代数和几何组合学，2014年6月15日至21日;物质和量子信息的量子相数学，2014年6月25日至7月1日;和网络科学，2014年6月25日至7月1日。2015年和2016年会议的主题将由MRC咨询委员会决定，该委员会将评估希望成为组织者的高级数学家提交的提案。 每一次MRC会议都将汇集一批不同的年轻数学家。每次会议的组织委员会由会议领域的领导人组成，并包括具有成功组织讲习班和会议经验的个人。这些会议将使高级和初级研究人员聚集在一个理想的环境中建立联系，这种联系往往会在会议结束后持续多年。 数学研究社区计划的目标是创建年轻数学家的研究群体，这些群体将随着时间的推移而自我维持，促进联合研究和连贯的研究计划，最终将覆盖数学的所有领域。数学研究社区计划致力于通过以下活动来实现这一目标，除了夏季研究会议：特别会议在年度AMS-MAA联合数学会议，指导和讨论网络。这是研究队列的形成，设置这个程序除了任何其他（国家）专业发展计划的数学家，目前存在的。每年创建三到四个新的队列有可能为数十年的研究奠定基础，并将对美国的数学研究产生极其积极的影响最重要的是，该计划将专注于数学家谁是开始他们的研究生涯;所有计划的组成部分将有助于培养和连接下一代研究人员，最终，数学的所有研究领域。 该提案要求为这一独特方案再提供三年的支持。会议主题将包括纯数学和应用数学研究领域。

The American Mathematical Society (AMS) has created the Mathematics Research Communities (MRC) as a national program to support and guide young mathematicians as they begin their research careers. In 2014, there are four MRC conferences proposed, all to be held in Snowbird, Utah: Cluster Algebras, June 8 - 14, 2014; Algebraic and Geometric Combinatorics in Applied Mathematics, June 15 - 21, 2014; Mathematics of Quantum Phases of Matter and Quantum Information, June 25 - July 1, 2014; and Network Science, June 25 - July 1, 2014. The topics of the conferences to be held in 2015 and 2016 will be determined later by the MRC Advisory Board, which evaluates proposals submitted by senior mathematicians who wish to be organizers. Each of the MRC conferences will bring together a diverse group of young mathematicians. The organizing committee for each conference is composed of leaders in the field of the conference and includes individuals with previous experience in organizing successful workshops and conferences. The conferences will bring together senior and junior researchers in an ideal environment to establish connections, which often last for many years after the conference itself. The goal of the Mathematics Research Communities program is to create research cohorts of young mathematicians that will sustain themselves over time, fostering joint research and coherent research programs that will, eventually, reach all areas of mathematics. The Mathematics Research Communities program strives to achieve this goal through the following activities in addition to the summer research conferences: Special Sessions at the annual AMS-MAA Joint Mathematics Meetings, mentoring and a discussion network. It is the formation of research cohorts that sets this program apart from any other (national) professional development programs for mathematicians that currently exist. The creation of three to four new cohorts per year has the potential to lay a foundation for decades of research, and will have an extremely positive effect on mathematics research in the U.S. Most importantly, this program will focus on mathematicians who are beginning their research careers; all program components will help to train and connect the next generation of researchers in, eventually, all research areas of mathematics. This proposal is requesting support for an additional three years of this unique program. Conference topics will include both pure and applied mathematics areas of research.
