The Circle at Infinity

该奖项支持参加将于2020年5月22日至24日在马萨诸塞州剑桥市哈佛大学举行的“无限圈”会议。会议将重点关注动力学和几何中的一些领域，这些领域最近的进展导致了重要新方向的出现。一个关键目标是让初级数学家接触到会议所代表领域的更深层次的统一主题，并将他们与自己和其他领域的领先专家联系起来。组织者预计约有200名与会者。该奖项主要支持大会的美国演讲者和早期职业参与者，包括目前在数学科学领域代表性不足的女性和其他群体的成员。会议讨论的主题包括：黎曼曲面的模空间结构、复曲面上的动力学、算术动力学、齐次动力学及其与遍历理论的关系、丢芬图近似、几何拓扑学和相关领域，特别是数论。演讲者名单和其他信息可在会议网站上获得：https://www.math.harvard.edu/the-circle-at-infinity-a-celebration-of-the-mathematics-of-curtis-t-mcmullen/This奖项反映了美国国家科学基金会的法定使命，并通过基金会的智力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 supports participation in the conference "The Circle at Infinity" to take place May 22-24, 2020 at Harvard University, Cambridge, MA. The conference will focus on select areas within dynamics and geometry where recent progress has led to the emergence of significant new directions. A key goal is to expose junior mathematicians to the deeper unifying themes that underlie the areas represented in the conference and to connect them to leading experts in their own and in other fields. The organizers expect about 200 attendees. This award primarily supports U.S. speakers and early-career participants in the conference, including women and members of other groups that are currently underrepresented in the mathematical sciences. Topics discussed at the conference include: the structure of moduli spaces of Riemann surfaces, dynamics on complex surfaces, arithmetic dynamics, homogeneous dynamics and relations to ergodic theory, diophantine approximation, geometric topology, and related areas, especially number theory. The list of speakers and additional information are available at the conference website: https://www.math.harvard.edu/the-circle-at-infinity-a-celebration-of-the-mathematics-of-curtis-t-mcmullen/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.
