Homological Mirror Symmetry Conference Miami 2015

该奖项支持参加于2015年1月26日至1月31日在迈阿密大学举行的同源镜像对称会议。镜像对称起源于物理学，是超共形量子场论之间的二象性。马克西姆·康采维奇（Maxim Kontsevich）用一个一致的、强大的数学框架来解释这种对偶性，这个框架被称为同调镜像对称（HMS）。Kontsevich提出的思想在数学界如何从理论物理学，以及我们对空间本身的概念中获取思想方面，导致了戏剧性的发展。去年出现了几项前沿进展。在迈阿密大学举行的同源镜像对称会议将是传播这些发展和鼓励这一学科领域年轻、早期职业研究人员浪潮的绝佳机会。HMS研究中出现的广泛主题需要开放交流思想的场所，以便研究生和早期职业研究人员了解当前主题。近年来，这一主题发展极为迅速，这次会议将使年轻人参与其中，产生巨大而广泛的影响。有关会议的更多细节，请访问https://math.berkeley.edu/~auroux/miami2015.html。

This award supports participation in a conference on Homological Mirror Symmetry held at the University of Miami from January 26 through January 31, 2015. Mirror symmetry originated in physics as a duality between superconformal quantum field theories. Maxim Kontsevich interpreted this duality in a consistent, powerful mathematical framework called Homological Mirror Symmetry (HMS). The ideas put forth by Kontsevich have led to dramatic developments in how the mathematical community approaches ideas from theoretical physics, and indeed our conception of space itself. Several cutting edge developments have happened in the last year.The conference on Homological Mirror Symmetry at the University of Miami will serve as a perfect opportunity for a dissemination of these developments and encouragement of a wave of young, early career researchers in this subject area. The wide range of topics appearing in HMS research necessitates venues for the open exchanges of ideas in order for graduate students and early-career researchers to stay informed on current topics. The subject has developed extremely rapidly in recent years, and this conference will have an immense broader impact by bringing young people into it.
