Southwest Local Algebra Meeting 2023

该奖项支持参加2023年3月4日至5日在北德克萨斯大学举行的西南地方代数会议。会议将促进来自西南地区各机构的学生和教师之间的互动，这些机构广泛地在环、领域和小组中工作。该地区的代数学者在纯代数和应用代数的保护下对各种主题进行研究，但机构之间的地理距离使得建立新的合作变得困难。本次会议将汇集来自不同背景的学生和教师进行生动的演讲，科学互动和专业网络，并有充足的时间探索新的研究项目。预计约有80 - 100名参与者来自西南和南部地区，包括研究生和初级和高级教师。会议特别鼓励历史上在数学领域未被充分代表的群体的代数学家，以及非终身教职员工和非博士学位授予机构的教职员工的参与。代数结构对许多数学分支至关重要，包括编码理论、密码学、组合学、几何、拓扑、数论和数学物理。在这次会议上，六位专家将为研究生提供长达一小时的演讲，学生们将在三个小时的海报会议上展示研究成果。演讲者是代数组合学、自同构形式、同调代数、代数几何、非交换几何以及交换代数和非交换代数方面的专家。这种兴趣的多样性有望促进参与者之间的创造性互动。更多信息可在会议网页上找到：http://www.math.ttu.edu/~lchriste/slam2023.html.This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 award supports participation in the Southwest Local Algebra Meeting at the University of North Texas, March 4–5, 2023. The conference will catalyze interactions between students and faculty from institutions throughout the Southwest working broadly in rings, fields, and groups. Algebraists in the region pursue research on a variety of topics under the umbrella of pure and applied algebra, but the geographical distances between institutions make it difficult to establish new collaborations. This meeting will bring together students and faculty from a variety of backgrounds for lively talks, scientific interactions, and professional networking, with ample time to explore new research projects. About 80 – 100 participants are expected from throughout the Southwest and South regions, including graduate students and both junior and senior faculty. The meeting particularly encourages participation of algebraists from groups historically underrepresented in mathematics, as well as nontenured faculty and faculty at non-PhD-granting institutions. Algebraic structures are crucial to many branches of mathematics, including coding theory, cryptography, combinatorics, geometry, topology, number theory, and mathematical physics. At this conference, six experts will deliver hour-long talks accessible to graduate students, and students will present research in three hour-long poster sessions. The speakers are specialists in algebraic combinatorics, automorphic forms, homological algebra, algebraic geometry, non-commutative geometry, and both commutative and non-commutative algebra. This variety of interests is expected to bolster creative interactions between participants.
