Non-Isolated Singularities and Derived Geometry

该奖项为参加2019年7月29日至8月3日在墨西哥国立自治大学（Cuernavaca，墨西哥）举行的“非孤立奇点和衍生几何”国际会议的美国参与者提供部分支持。该活动将汇集早期职业和高级研究人员以及学生。除了旨在传播最新发展的研究报告外，它还将包括研究生可以接受的入门讲座。还将举行讨论会议，以更好地加强各研究小组之间的联系，并为初级研究人员和研究生提供便利。会议的重点是奇异代数和解析变量的拓扑研究。该计划包括以下主题，每个主题都由最近和基本的进展驱动：(1)非孤立奇点的几何和拓扑；(2)奇异变种的特征类；(3)倒装和混合Hodge模块；(4)李普希茨几何。提议的主题涉及从纯数学到更多应用领域的广泛研究领域，因此会议参与者将反映广泛的数学学科。近几十年来，涉及奇点研究的基本工具已经扩展到无数的数学领域，为各种相关专业的专家提供像这次会议这样的机会来互动和交叉授粉变得越来越重要。有关会议的更多详细信息，请参阅：http://www.matcuer.unam.mx/DavidMassey60th/index.htmlThis该奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的知识价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，认为值得支持。

This award provides partial support for US-based participants in the international conference "Non-Isolated Singularities and Derived Geometry" to be held at the Universidad Nacional Autonoma de Mexico (Cuernavaca, Mexico), during the period July 29 - August 3, 2019. The event will bring together early-career and senior researchers as well as students. Along with research presentations intended to disseminate recent developments, it will include introductory lectures at a level accessible to graduate students. There will also be discussion sessions, to better strengthen connections among the various research groups represented and to provide accessibility for junior researchers and graduate students. The conference focus is on the topological study of singular algebraic and analytic varieties. The program includes the following topics, each driven by recent and fundamental advances: (1) Geometry and topology of non-isolated singularities; (2) Characteristic classes of singular varieties; (3) Perverse sheaves and mixed Hodge modules; (4) Lipschitz geometry. The proposed topics intersect a broad range of research endeavors in fields ranging from pure mathematics to more applied areas, thus conference participants will reflect a broad cross-section of mathematical disciplines. In recent decades, the basic tools involved in the study of singularities have branched out into a myriad of mathematical territories, and it increasingly becomes important to provide an opportunity such as this conference for experts in the various related specializations to interact and cross-pollinate.
