In July 2007, the nineteenth international conference entitled FormalPower Series and Algebraic Combinatorics (FPSAC) will be held atthe Center for Combinatorics at Nankai University in Tianjin, China.In June 2008, the twentieth FPSAC international conference will be held in Valparaiso, Chile. The funding from this grant will be used to exclusively support the attendance, at each of these 2 conferences, of 45 graduate students, post-doctoral students, early career researchers, and researchers from underrepresented groups, who are studying or working at American Universities. Traditionally, the FPSAC conferences feature 9 plenary speakers, approximately30 contributed talks, and 2 poster sessions. The number of participants varies between 120 to 200 from all around the world, of whom between 70 to 120 are graduate students and early career researchers. The continuing success of the annual FPSAC conferences stems in part from their considerableinterdisciplinary breadth---linking leading researchers in combinatorial mathematics with strong researchers in allied fields drawn from pure and applied mathematics, theoretical computer science, physics, and biology. The considerable span of this conference series is unique among international conferences with an emphasis on combinatorial mathematics.The principal topics featured during the next two FPSAC conferences will be: algebraic and enumerative combinatorics and their applications and relations to other areas of mathematics, physics, biology, and computer science. The interdisciplinary span is evidenced by the choice of plenary speakers. All the plenary speakers for China have confirmed their participation. Those are: Bruce C. Berndt (U. of Illinois, USA), Philippe Biane (Ecole Normale Superieure, France), Anders Buch (Rutgers U., USA), Maxime Crochemore (U. of Marne-la-Vallee, France), Eva-Maria Feichtner (U. of Stuttgart,Germany), Sergey Fomin (U. of Michigan, USA), Ezra Miller (U. of Minnesota, USA),Soichi Okada (Nagoya U. Japan), and Peter Paule (U. of Linz, Austria).As for the FPSAC'08 in Chile, the following speakers have confirmed their participation: Marcelo Aguiar (Texas AM), Micheal Albert (U. of Otago, New Zealand), Jonathan Brundan (U. of Oregon, USA), Ian Grojnowski (U. of Cambridge, UK), Maria Ronco (U. de Valparaiso, Chile). The Chair and co-Chair for the Scientific program of the FPSAC'07 conference are: Bill Chen of Nankai University, China and Jean-Yves Thibon of the University of Marne-La-Vall\'ee, France. For the FPSAC'08 conference the chair and co-chair are: Luc Lapointe of the Universidad de Talca, and Bruce Sagan of Michigan State University.A distinguishing characteristic of FPSAC conferences is the concerted effort to recognize and encourage outstanding young scientists. This is accomplished in part by choosing at least one plenary speaker to be an ``emerging'' star (Eva-Maria Feichtner, Marcelo Aguiar and Jonathan Brundan) and by ensuring that talented young researchers are well represented among the speakers selected for contributed talks. Another special feature of the FPSAC conferences is a continuing effort to emphasize inclusiveness among participants. The conference seeks to draw substantial participation from groups which have been traditionally under-represented in the mathematical sciences. Attendance at these two conferences will be exceptionally valuable for graduate students and junior researchers. China has a vibrant community of researchers in combinatorics, and in recent years they have sought to significantly increase their international research collaborations.This will be a unique opportunity for graduate students andearly career resarchers to develop ties with Chinese researchers.FPSAC 2007 marks the first time this conference series willtake place in Asia. FPSAC 2008 also marks the first time this conference will be held in South America. In contrast to other countries in the region such as Argentina and Brazil, Chile still has a relatively small mathematical community. However, it has been fast growing in recent years. We are hopeful that FPSAC will bolster the efforts for the developement of mathematics in Chile,at the very least in the field of Discrete Math. There will be conference Proceedings for each of these two conferences.

2007年7月，题为《正式权力系列》和代数联合学（FPSAC）的第十九届国际会议将在中国坦津的南卡伊大学举行。这笔赠款的资金将用于在这两个会议中的每一次，由45名研究生，博士后学生，早期职业研究人员和来自代表性不足的团体的研究人员组成的每一次，他们在美国大学学习或工作。 传统上，FPSAC会议具有9个全体扬声器，大约30次演讲和2张海报会议。参与者的数量从世界各地的120到200之间变化，其中70至120名是研究生和早期职业研究人员。 年度FPSAC会议的持续成功部分源于其相当大的学科广度---将联合数学组合中的主要研究人员与来自纯粹和应用数学，理论计算机科学，物理学和生物学的盟军领域中的强大研究人员联系起来。该会议系列的大量跨度在国际会议中是独一无二的，重点是组合数学。接下来的两个FPSAC会议期间的主要主题将是：代数和枚举的组合及其应用以及与数学，物理学，生物学和计算机科学的其他领域的应用以及与其他领域的关系。 跨学科跨度可以通过全体扬声器的选择来证明。中国的所有全体发言人都证实了他们的参与。这些是：布鲁斯·C·伯恩德（美国伊利诺伊州美国），菲利普·比安（Ecole Normale Superieure，法国），安德斯·布赫（Anders Buch）（美国罗格斯·U.，美国），马克西米·刀科（U.米勒（美国明尼苏达州美国），冈田soichi（日本名古屋）和彼得·帕勒（彼得·帕勒（彼得·帕勒）（奥地利林兹美国）。 Grojnowski（英国剑桥市），玛丽亚·罗恩（Maria Ronco）（智利瓦尔帕莱索（U. de Valparaiso））。 FPSAC'07会议的科学计划的主席和联合主席是：中国南凯大学的比尔·陈和法国马恩·拉·瓦尔大学的让·伊夫·蒂本（Jean-Yves Thibon）。在FPSAC'08会议上，主席和联合主席是：塔尔卡大学的Luc Lapointe和密歇根州立大学的Bruce Sagan。 这是通过选择至少一位全体演讲者成为``新兴''明星（Eva-Maria Feichtner，Marcelo Aguiar和Jonathan Brundan）的一部分来实现的，并确保有才华的年轻研究人员在被选为演讲者的演讲者中表现得很好。 FPSAC会议的另一个特殊特征是继续努力，以强调参与者之间的包容性。 该会议旨在从传统上在数学科学中占代表性不足的群体吸引大量参与。参加这两个会议对于研究生和初级研究人员来说将是非常有价值的。 中国有一个充满活力的组合研究人员社区，近年来，他们试图大大提高其国际研究合作。这将是研究生和职业生涯重新制定者与中国研究人员建立联系的独特机会。FPSAC2007标志着该会议系列首次在亚洲举行。 FPSAC 2008还标志着该会议将在南美首次举行。与阿根廷和巴西等地区的其他国家相反，智利仍然具有相对较小的数学社区。 但是，近年来它一直在迅速增长。 我们希望FPSAC至少在离散数学领域，将加强智利数学发展的努力。这两个会议中的每一个都将进行会议诉讼。
