The 2017 Maine/Quebec Number Theory Conference

该奖项支持将于2017年10月14日至15日在缅因州大学举行的2017年缅因州-魁北克省数论会议的参与者。这是一个年度会议，偶数年在魁北克省的拉瓦尔大学举行，奇数年在缅因州大学举行。通过为来自新英格兰、魁北克和其他地方的数学家提供一个论坛，它促进了加拿大和美国数学研究人员之间的互动和合作。会议有大约35场讲座，讨论数论不同领域的最新进展。这次会议的规模很小(大约有65人参加)，这为研究生和年轻的数学家提供了一个与顶尖研究人员互动的好机会。该奖项还为在美国参加2018年魁北克会议的与会者提供了一些旅行支持。会议网站上有更多信息，包括近年来的与会者名单和项目：http://www.math.umaine.edu/numbertheory/mainequebec.html

This award supports participants in the 2017 Maine-Québec Number Theory Conference, to take place on October 14-15, 2017 at the University of Maine. This is an annual conference, held at Laval University in Québec in even years and at the University of Maine in odd years. By providing a forum for number theorists from New England, Québec, and beyond, it promotes interaction and collaboration between Canadian and American mathematics researchers.The conference features approximately 35 lectures addressing recent progress in different areas of number theory. The small scale of the meeting (with roughly 65 attendees) makes this a good opportunity for graduate students and young mathematicians to interact with leading researchers. This award also provides some travel support for U.S.-based participants to attend the 2018 meeting in Québec.
