This project is to support the African Diaspora Joint Mathematics Workshops (ADJOINT) program whose goal is to strengthen the mathematical sciences by facilitating research among African-American mathematicians as well as increasing their visibility and inclusion in the mathematical community. This program will host several extended workshops of small groups of mathematicians at the Mathematical Sciences Research Institute (MSRI) in Berkeley, California during the summer of 2019. Each group will be predominantly made up of African-American researchers, will be led by an established African-American researcher and will include mathematicians at various stages in their careers. The goal of each workshop will be to develop and extend a focused research project. Funds will also be available for participants to further interact or travel to focused workshops in the 2019-20 academic year. Having core, productive and visible groups of African-American mathematicians in various mathematical fields will stimulate further participation by this community in these fields.Each of the groups will have an outline of possible research directions and problems before they arrive. This plan will be refined and implemented while participating in the workshop at MSRI and a plan to continue will be drawn up before the researchers leave. The participants will be made aware of future research programs at the NSF Mathematics Institutes and be encouraged to apply to appropriate programs as well as to organize Special Sessions at AMS or other meetings. While in residence at MSRI, the members of each group will also interact with students at the Graduate Summer Schools which are held at the Institute each summer as well as with the students in MSRI-UP, MSRI's long-running and successful REU program for students belonging to underrepresented populations. The presence of these role models will further enhance the experience of the graduate and undergraduate students. Concurrent residency of some of the groups will also allow for development of further tools to support research in this community.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.

该项目旨在支持非洲侨民联合数学研讨会（伴随）计划，其目标是通过促进非裔美国人数学家的研究来增强数学科学，并增加其在数学界的知名度和包容性。该计划将在2019年夏季在加利福尼亚州伯克利的数学科学研究所（MSRI）举办几个较小的数学家群，每组将主要由非裔美国人研究人员组成，将由非裔美国人研究人员组成，并将由一位既定的非裔美国人研究人员，并将包括各种医生的数学家。每个研讨会的目标是开发和扩展一个重点的研究项目。在2019-20学年，参与者还将提供资金，以便参与者进一步互动或前往专注的研讨会。在各个数学领域拥有核心，富有成效和可见的非裔美国人数学家群体，将刺激该社区在这些领域的进一步参与。每个团体的每个人都将在他们到达之前概述可能的研究方向和问题。该计划将在参加MSRI的研讨会时进行完善和实施，并将在研究人员离开之前制定一项继续计划。参与者将了解NSF数学机构的未来研究计划，并鼓励参与者申请适当的计划，并在AMS或其他会议上组织特殊会议。在MSRI居住期间，每个小组的成员还将与每年夏天在研究所举行的暑期学校的学生以及MSRI-UP的学生，MSRI的学生（为属于代表性不足人群的学生提供的长期且成功的REU计划）与MSRI-UP的学生互动。这些榜样的存在将进一步增强研究生和本科生的经验。一些小组的同时居住还将允许开发进一步的工具来支持本社区的研究。该奖项反映了NSF的法定任务，并被认为是值得通过基金会的知识分子优点和更广泛的影响评估标准通过评估来支持的。
