This project supports participation of US based mathematicians in the workshop "GRAZP: Groups and Rigidity Around the Zimmer Program" which will take place from September 11-16, 2023 in Ventotene, Italy. In light of the recent major advances in the Zimmer program, the main goal of the conference is to have a timely meeting of researchers to educate participants on these advances and discuss new directions. The conference will help educate junior mathematicians about these advances and help bring them to the forefront of this active research area. The workshop will consist of three minicourses on different aspects of Groups and Rigidity Around the Zimmer Program, together with research talks, a lightning talks session for grad students, some discussion sessions and plenty of time for informal discussions. Participants will include leading U.S. and European researchers from the different areas related to the centerpiece of the workshop, as well as younger researchers, both graduate students and postdocs. The lecture series will provide an opportunity for the researchers to educate each other and the workshop participants about techniques and recent advances in the area. By the end of the workshop we expect the participants to be able to draw enough parallels between the different techniques to be able to put them to use and open new directions of research stemming from the interaction among the topics. The conference will help to educate graduate students and recent PhDs on the latest developments in the field and bring them to the forefront of research. The majority of funding will support junior participants coming from the USA. The organizing committee will encourage and support broad and diverse participation. In particular, women mathematicians and members of other under-represented groups are especially encouraged to apply for support.The workshop include the following three minicourses on topics related to recent advances in the Zimmer program: 1) An update on the current state of the Zimmer program (David Fisher, Rice University), 2) Actions of lattices on geometric and Furstenberg boundaries (Thang Nguyen, Florida State University) and 3) Centralizer rigidity (Amie Wilkinson, University of Chicago). The workshop will also feature research talks and informal discussions and a lightning talk session for junior researchers. Participants will include leading U.S. and European researchers from different areas relevant to the centerpiece of the workshop as well as junior researchers, both graduate students and postdocs.

该项目支持美国数学家参加研讨会“ Grazp：Zimmer计划周围的团体和刚性”，该计划将于2023年9月11日至16日在意大利Ventotene举行。鉴于Zimmer计划最近的重大进展，会议的主要目标是及时开会研究人员，以教育参与者有关这些进步并讨论新的方向。该会议将帮助教育初级数学家有关这些进步的教育，并帮助他们进入这个活跃的研究领域的最前沿。该研讨会将由三个小型记录组成，围绕Zimmer计划的各个方面和刚性，以及研究谈判，为研究生的闪电会议，一些讨论会议，一些讨论会议以及足够的时间进行非正式讨论。 参与者将包括来自与研讨会核心有关的不同领域的美国和欧洲研究人员，以及年轻的研究人员，包括研究生和博士后。讲座系列将为研究人员提供一个互相教育的机会，以及研讨会参与者有关该地区的技术和最新进展。在研讨会结束时，我们希望参与者能够在不同的技术之间划出足够的相似之处，从而能够使它们使用并开放来自主题之间互动的新研究方向。该会议将有助于教育研究生和最近的博士学位，了解该领域的最新发展，并将其带到研究的最前沿。大多数资金将支持来自美国的初级参与者。组织委员会将鼓励和支持广泛而多样的参与。特别是，特别鼓励女性数学家和其他代表性不足的群体的成员申请支持。该研讨会包括以下三个有关Zimmer计划最新进展的主题的小戏：1）有关Zimmer当前状态的更新计划（莱斯大学戴维·费舍尔（David Fisher），2）晶格对几何和弗斯滕伯格边界的行动（佛罗里达州立大学的唐·恩甘扬（Thang Nguyen））和3）中央器刚度（芝加哥大学阿米·威尔金森（Amie Wilkinson））。该研讨会还将为初级研究人员提供研究演讲和非正式讨论以及闪电谈话。参与者将包括来自与研讨会的核心以及研究生和博士学位的初级研究人员有关的不同领域的美国和欧洲研究人员。 可以在https://www.ventoteneinterworkshops.net/..NET/.This奖上找到该研讨会的网站，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的评估来获得支持的，并具有更广泛的影响。
