Clifford Lectures on Algebraic Groups: Structure and Actions

该奖项支持参加2015年3月2-5日在路易斯安那州新奥尔良杜兰大学举行的“克利福德代数群讲座：结构和作用”会议。这次会议将促进对几何学和数论之间相互作用的研究。本次会议的一个重要目标是为研究生在代数群论、代数几何和数论领域的研究做准备，特别是提出论文项目。克利福德系列讲座是一个中等规模的会议，它为与会者提供了充足的互动机会。这种氛围是无价的，特别是对研究生和初级研究人员的新领域。预计会议将导致参与者之间的积极合作，包括非博士学位的学生和教师。授予机构。主讲人是米歇尔·布里昂（法国格勒诺布尔大学）。他的演讲集中于代数群在任意域上的结构和作用，代数群论在代数几何（自同构群及其双族类似物）和数论中的应用，以及齐次变异及其等变嵌入的各个方面（代数，代数组合学，几何）。会议网址：http://tulane.edu/sse/math/news/clifford-lectures-march-2015.cfm

This award supports participation in the conference "Clifford Lectures on Algebraic Groups: Structure and Actions" held March 2-5, 2015 at Tulane University in New Orleans, Louisiana. The conference will stimulate research on the interplay between geometry and number theory. An important goal of this conference is to prepare graduate students for research in the areas of algebraic group theory, algebraic geometry, and number theory, in particular to suggest thesis projects. The Clifford Lecture Series is a medium-sized conference and it provides ample opportunities for its participants to interact with each other. This atmosphere is invaluable especially for graduate students and junior researchers new to the field. It is anticipated that the meeting will lead to active collaborations between the participants, including students and faculty from non-Ph.D.-granting institutions. The main speaker is Michel Brion (University of Grenoble, France). His talks focus on the structure and actions of algebraic groups over arbitrary fields, the applications of algebraic group theory to algebraic geometry (automorphism groups and their birational analogues) and number theory, and various aspects of homogeneous varieties and their equivariant embeddings (algebra, algebraic combinatorics, geometry).Conference web site: http://tulane.edu/sse/math/news/clifford-lectures-march-2015.cfm
