COLLABORATIVE: Pacific Northwest Geometry Seminar

该奖项将支持太平洋西北部几何研讨会（PNGS）的会议将在不列颠哥伦比亚省，华盛顿，俄勒冈州，俄勒冈州州立大学，波特兰州立大学和刘易斯克拉克学院的大学举行，从2019年春季开始。PNGS会议通常有六个邀请微分几何和几何分析领域的领先专家进行的研究讲座。会议还包括讨论会，其中发言者和与会者评估几何的各个领域的状态，并突出这些领域的开放问题。有一些非常活跃的几何研究人员分散在参与太平洋西北几何研讨会的各个学院和大学。PNGS会议将把这些研究人员聚集在一起进行咨询，合作和激发新的想法。由于过去会议上的互动，启动了大量的研究方案。PNGS系列是特别有价值的研究生在几何在参与大学有小几何组。PNGS会议为这些学生提供了一个很好的机会，看到更广泛的几何研究。这些会议对在该地区一些较小的大学工作的越来越多的几何学家也非常有价值，如太平洋大学、西雅图大学和爱达荷州州立大学。更多信息可以在会议网站上找到：www.math.washington.edu/~lee/PNGSThis奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并被认为值得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来支持。

This award will support meetings of the Pacific Northwest Geometry Seminar (PNGS) to be held at the University of British Columbia, the University of Washington, the University of Oregon, Oregon State University, Portland State University, and Lewis & Clark College, beginning in Spring 2019. PNGS meetings generally feature six invited research talks by leading experts in differential geometry and geometrical analysis. The meetings also include discussion sessions in which the speakers and participants assess the state of various areas in geometry and highlight open problems in these areas.There are a number of very active researchers in geometry scattered throughout the various colleges and universities involved in the Pacific Northwest Geometry Seminar. PNGS meetings will bring these researchers together for consultation, collaboration, and stimulation of new ideas. A significant number of research programs have been initiated as a result of interactions at past meetings. The PNGS series is especially valuable for graduate students in geometry at the participating universities which have small geometry groups. PNGS meetings give these students an excellent opportunity to see the broader picture of research in geometry. The meetings are also very valuable for the growing number of geometers working at some of the smaller universities in the region, such as Pacific University, Seattle University, and Idaho State University.
