This grant will fund conferences at the University of Wisconsin on November 14, 2015, and at the University of Minnesota in April 2016 (date to be announced). These one-day meetings will bring together faculty and students from the two universities, as well as from nearby collegiate institutions, to discuss topics in and around commutative algebra. Commutative algebra concerns the qualitative study of systems of polynomial equations in several unknowns, which play an important role in many areas of science and engineering. Besides promoting scientific discovery and dissemination, the conferences seek to build a stronger regional community of researchers and promote the training and education of graduate students. More information about the meetings can be found here: http://www.math.wisc.edu/~derman/UMW.htmlEach meeting will consist of two plenary talks by invited speakers from around the country, followed by an expository talk on a cutting edge topic, presented by a local speaker. While a majority of the faculty in commutative algebra at the Universities of Minnesota and Wisconsin are relatively junior, both institutions have broad and deep communities of researchers whose work interacts with commutative algebra, but who primarily work in other fields, including algebraic geometry, combinatorics, number theory, applied algebra, representation theory, and computational algebra. Thus these conferences are well positioned to lead to collaborations across different areas of algebra. Attendees will consist of a mix of professors, postdoctoral researchers, and students from the two hosting institutions plus other nearby institutions.

这笔赠款将资助 2015 年 11 月 14 日在威斯康星大学和 2016 年 4 月在明尼苏达大学举行的会议（日期待定）。这些为期一天的会议将汇集两所大学以及附近大学机构的教师和学生，讨论交换代数及其相关主题。交换代数涉及多个未知数多项式方程组的定性研究，在科学和工程的许多领域中发挥着重要作用。 除了促进科学发现和传播外，会议还寻求建立更强大的区域研究人员社区并促进研究生的培训和教育。有关会议的更多信息，请访问：http://www.math.wisc.edu/~derman/UMW.html 每次会议将由来自全国各地的受邀演讲者进行两次全体会议，然后是关于一个问题的说明性演讲。由当地演讲者提出的前沿话题。虽然明尼苏达大学和威斯康星大学的大多数交换代数教师都相对初级，但这两个机构都拥有广泛而深入的研究人员社区，他们的工作与交换代数相互作用，但主要从事其他领域的工作，包括代数几何、组合数学、数论、应用代数、表示论和计算代数。 因此，这些会议非常适合促进代数不同领域的合作。 与会者将包括来自两个主办机构以及附近其他机构的教授、博士后研究人员和学生。
