Young Mathematicians in C*-Algebras 2020

该奖项为美国参加将于2020年8月10日至15日在德国明斯特大学举行的“C*-代数青年数学家”会议提供资金。本次会议是由硕士/博士组织的。学生和博士后在算子代数和相关领域，以促进年轻研究人员之间的科学互动的目标。C*-代数的年轻数学家专注于算子代数（冯诺依曼和C*-代数），非交换几何和数学分析的相关领域的最新发展，特别强调算子代数与几何群论，逻辑和动力系统领域之间的相互作用。该会议将设有三个小型课程由既定的研究人员（杰西彼得森，阿斯特丽德一休夫，和克里斯托弗Schafhauser）旁边的许多贡献的会谈参与者，以及指导活动，旨在增加保留代表性不足的群体在运营商代数和主题演讲由Betül Tanbay。该奖项为美国的早期职业研究人员和代表性不足的团体成员提供了参加本次会议的机会。组委会将努力通过在各种场所的广告向目标群体宣传这一资助机会。更多信息将在以下网站提供：https://ymcstara.org/.This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 provides funding for US participation in the conference "Young Mathematicians in C*-Algebras" that will be held August 10-15, 2020 at the University of Münster, Germany. This conference is organized for and by Master's/Ph.D. students and postdocs in operator algebras and related areas, with the goal of fostering scientific interaction between young researchers. Young Mathematicians in C*-Algebras focuses on recent developments in operator algebras (both von Neumann and C*-algebras), noncommutative geometry, and related areas of mathematical analysis, with a particular emphasis on the interplay between operator algebras and the fields of geometric group theory, logic, and dynamical systems. The conference will feature three mini-courses by established researchers (Jesse Peterson, Astrid an Huef, and Christopher Schafhauser) alongside many contributed talks by participants, as well as mentoring activities designed to increase retention of underrepresented groups in operator algebras and a keynote address by Betül Tanbay. This award gives US-based early career researchers and members of underrepresented groups an opportunity to attend and participate in this conference. The organizing committee will strive to make this funding opportunity known to target groups via advertising in a variety of venues. More information will be made available at: https://ymcstara.org/.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.
