Simons Center for Geometry and Physics Thematic Program for 2016 "Statistical Mechanics and Combinatorics"

该项目的目的是在石溪大学西蒙斯几何和物理中心的http://scgp.stonybrook.edu/archives/14175，主题计划框架内进行的为期一周的“六顶点模型、二聚体、形状等”研讨会中支持美国年轻数学家http://scgp.stonybrook.edu/archives/16247，。该计划和研讨会的主要主题是物理学和数学之间的前沿，重点是这些领域之间的相互联系和思想的交叉滋养。该项目将通过培训美国初级研究人员(博士后、初级教师和高级研究生)来促进数学和理论物理领域的进展。2016年2月15日至4月15日的“统计力学与组合学”主题课程将包括预科课程、长期和短期访客的定期讲座和研讨会，以及为期一周的“六顶点模型、二聚体、形状等”研讨会，2016年3月14日至18日。与讲习班主题相关的预备课程将面向研究生、博士后研究员和青年研究人员。该项目将支持青年研究人员参加预备讲座课程以及方案和讲习班。SCGP计划将涵盖广泛的相关主题，包括统计物理可解模型的数学方面，组合学，表示理论，以及相关主题。这将是一项有杰出数学家、物理学家和数学物理学家参与的跨学科活动。对于初级研究人员来说，这将是一个学习现代数学物理的机会，并与该领域的知名专家讨论他们自己的项目。

The aim of the project is to support junior American mathematicians in the one-week workshop "Six-vertex model, dimers, shapes, and all that," http://scgp.stonybrook.edu/archives/14175, conducted within the framework of the Thematic Program on "Statistical Mechanics and Combinatorics," http://scgp.stonybrook.edu/archives/16247, at the Simons Center for Geometry and Physics (SCGP) at Stony Brook University. The main topics of the program and workshop lie on the frontier between physics and mathematics with emphasis on interconnections and cross fertilization of ideas between these fields. The project will promote progress in the areas in mathematical and theoretical physics by training of junior US researchers (postdocs, junior faculty, and advanced graduate students). The Thematic Program on "Statistical Mechanics and Combinatorics" from February 15-April 15, 2016 will include preparatory courses and regular lectures and seminars by the long-term and short-term visitors of the program and the one-week-long workshop "Six-vertex model, dimers, shapes, and all that," March 14-18, 2016. The preparatory courses, related to the themes of the workshops, will be aimed at graduate students, postdoctoral fellows, and young researchers. The project will support participation of young researchers at preparatory lecture courses, as well as in the program and the workshop. The SCGP program will cover a broad spectrum of interrelated topics which include mathematical aspects of solvable models of statistical physics, combinatorics, representation theory, and related topics. This will be an interdisciplinary activity with participation of distinguished mathematicians, physicists and mathematical physicists. For junior researchers it will be an opportunity to learn modern mathematical physics and discuss their own projects with established experts in the field.
