Midwestern Young Researchers Conference on Commutative Algebra and Related Disciplines: KUMUNU Jr 2016

该奖项支持参加2016年KUMUNUJr会议，会议将于2016年4月23日至24日在内布拉斯加大学林肯分校举行。KUMUNUJr是一个年度系列会议，旨在促进中西部学校交换代数和相关学科（包括同调代数、代数几何、k理论和编码理论）的初级研究人员之间的互动。该系列会议由堪萨斯大学（KU），密苏里大学-哥伦比亚大学（MU）和内布拉斯加州-林肯大学（NU）主持。这次聚会将为年轻的代数学者提供一个相互交流和建立研究联系的机会。随着参与者在该领域的进步，这种互动将有助于为卓有成效的研究合作奠定基础。会议的目标是促进中西部机构交换代数初级研究人员之间的合作，并让中西部机构的交换代数学生和博士后了解邻近机构在其领域中正在进行的工作。会议将持续两天，将有六场博士后或高级研究生的演讲和五场初级研究生的演讲。本次会议将向所有感兴趣的研究生和博士后开放。将特别努力征聘妇女和人数不足的少数民族。更多信息请访问会议网页：http://www.math.unl.edu/~ecanton2/KUMUNUjr/2016/

This award supports participation in the 2016 KUMUNUJr meeting to be held at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln during April 23-24, 2016. KUMUNUJr is an annual conference series designed to promote interaction among junior researchers in commutative algebra and related disciplines (including homological algebra, algebraic geometry, K-theory, and coding theory) at Midwestern schools. The conference series is anchored by the Universities of Kansas (KU), Missouri - Columbia (MU), and Nebraska - Lincoln (NU). The gathering will provide an opportunity for young algebraists to interact and establish research connections with each other. This interaction will help to lay a foundation for fruitful research collaborations as the participants advance in the field.The goals of the conference are to foster collaboration among junior researchers in commutative algebra from Midwestern institutions, and to expose commutative algebra students and postdocs from Midwestern institutions to the current work being done in their fields at neighboring institutions. The conference will last for two days and will feature six talks by post-docs or senior graduate students and five talks by junior graduate students. The conference will be open to all interested graduate students and post-docs. Special efforts will be made to recruit women and underrepresented minorities.
