Witt Vectors, Deformations, and Absolute Geometry

维特矢量、变形和绝对几何会议将于2018年7月16日至2018年7月21日在佛蒙特州大学举行。这次研讨会将促进研究互动，并将为研究生以及更年轻和更成熟的数学家提供一个环境，以了解最新的趋势，并与世界各地一些最著名的研究人员进行互动。组织者将重点为研究生和早期职业研究人员提供资金支持，以促进他们的参与。这次会议的科学目的是将几个不同领域的研究人员聚集在一起，他们的工作与Witt载体及其相关结构有关。这些技术对于将变形理论技术扩展到新的环境并促进在代数几何、代数拓扑、数论和应用模型理论的界面上的研究活动是重要的。本次会议的网站为http://www.uvm.edu/~tdupuy/witt2018.html.。会议的幻灯片将张贴在那里并公开提供。这一奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的智力优势和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。

The conference on Witt Vectors, Deformations, and Absolute Geometry will be held at the University of Vermont, 16 July 2018-21 July 2018. This workshop will foster research interactions and will provide a setting for graduate students, as well as younger and more established mathematicians, to learn of the newest trends and interact with some of the most prominent researchers around the world. The organizers will focus financial support on graduate students and early career researchers to facilitate their participation.Scientific purpose of this conference is to bring together researchers in several, disparate fields whose work is connected to Witt vectors and their related constructions. These techniques are important for extending deformation theoretic techniques to new settings and promotes research activities at the interface of algebraic geometry, algebraic topology, number theory, and applied model theory. A website for this meeting is maintained at http://www.uvm.edu/~tdupuy/witt2018.html. The slides from the conference will be posted there and left publicly available.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.
