Workshops in Geometry and Mathematical Physics and in Probability and Statistics

该项目资助参与者支持第11届和第12届波士顿大学/庆应义塾大学/清华大学年度研讨会，第11届研讨会将于2022年6月27日至7月1日在波士顿大学举行，重点是几何和数学物理。2023年的研讨会将重点关注概率和统计。这笔资金专门用于在波士顿地区以外的美国机构就读的高级研究生和新近获得博士学位的学生的旅行和当地费用。讲习班将为与会者提供机会，听取其研究领域的高级会谈，在专业环境中介绍自己的工作，并与彼此和资深专家建立联系。庆应义塾大学（Keio University）和清华大学（Tsinghua University）的教员将通过各自的资金来源，为这些研讨会带来来自日本和中国的类似参与者。因此，这些研讨会加强了美国、日本和中国数学和统计界之间的研究联系。研讨会采用的形式是，上午由高级教师讲授最近的研究方向，下午由最近的博士学位获得者和研究生介绍自己的研究成果。海报会议包括额外的演讲，每个研讨会包括一个讨论部分，讨论领域中的开放问题和其他对早期职业参与者特别感兴趣的问题，如职业安置。研讨会在网站上提供了研究报告的课堂讲稿和幻灯片，这有助于将这些前沿研究成果传播给广泛的社区。更多信息可以在研讨会网站http://math.bu.edu/BKT2022.This上找到，该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 project funds participant support for the 11th and 12th annual Boston University/Keio University/Tsinghua University Workshops, with the 11th Workshop to be held June 27-July 1, 2022, at Boston University, focusing on Geometry and Mathematical Physics. The 2023 workshop will focus on Probability and Statistics. The funding is dedicated to travel and local expenses for advanced graduate students and recent PhDs based at US institutions outside the Boston area. The workshops will provide participants with the opportunity to hear advanced talks in their research fields, to present their own work in a professional setting, and to network with each other and with senior experts. Through their own sources of funding, Keio University and Tsinghua University faculty will bring similar participants to these workshops from Japan and China. As a result, these workshops strengthen research ties between the US, Japanese, and Chinese mathematics and statistics communities.The workshops follow a format in which senior faculty lecture on recent research directions in the morning, and recent PhD recipients and graduate students present their own work in the afternoon. Poster sessions accommodate additional presentations, and each workshop includes a discussion section on open problems in the field and other issues of particular interest for early-career participants, such as career placement. The workshops provide websites with lecture notes and slides from the research presentations, which serve to disseminate these cutting-edge research results to the broad communities. More information can be found at the workshop website http://math.bu.edu/BKT2022.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.
