This NSF award will support 8 undergraduate students for 8 weeks at Auburn University in each of the summers 2024-2026. The program is a continuation of NSF funded REU programs conducted by the proposers at Auburn in 1999, 2000, 2005-2008, and 2010-2023. The REU will focus on research problems in algebra (computational algebra, Groebner bases) and discrete mathematics (graph theory, graphs and hypergraphs, information and coding theory, and number theory). The program will have a positive impact on undergraduates pursuing graduate training in the mathematical sciences and supports NSF's vision of developing a diverse scientific workforce. This project is jointly funded by the Mathematical Sciences Research Experiences for Undergraduates Sites Program (DMS REU Sites) and the Established Program to Stimulate Competitive Research (EPSCoR).The pattern of activities will be: intensive introduction to problem areas in the first two weeks, capped by an obligatory "ice-breaker" presentation by each participant in the third week, followed by a "research institute" phase in the remaining five weeks, capped by a final presentation by each participant. During the research institute phase, there will be frequent talks given by faculty and graduate students of the host department, visiting mathematicians, and the participants themselves, but the main feature of that phase will be the research carried on by the participants, in various combinations with faculty, graduate students, and by themselves. The purpose of the program is to give the participants an authentic experience of mathematical research with the goal of exciting students about going to graduate school and pursuing academic research careers. As in past years, research results will be published in books or refereed journals and presented at research conferences. More information on the program can be found at https://cws.auburn.edu/apspi/pm/mathreu.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.

NSF奖将在2024 - 2026年夏季的每个夏季在奥本大学（Auburn University）支持8周的8周大学生。该计划是由NSF资助的REU计划的延续，由奥本（Auburn）在1999年，2000年，2005年2005年和2010 - 2023年在奥本（Auburn）进行。 REU将重点关注代数（计算代数，格罗布纳基础）和离散数学（图理论，图形和超图，信息与编码理论以及数字理论）的研究问题。该计划将对在数学科学领域进行研究生培训的大学生有积极的影响，并支持NSF发展多样的科学劳动力的愿景。该项目由数学科学研究经验共同资助了本科生站点计划（DMS REU站点）和既定计划的刺激竞争研究（EPSCOR）的既定计划。每个参与者。在研究机构阶段，主持人和参与者本身的教职员工和研究生将经常进行演讲，但是该阶段的主要特征将是参与者与教职员工，研究生以及本身进行的各种组合进行的研究。该计划的目的是为参与者提供数学研究的真实体验，目的是激发学生去研究生院并从事学术研究职业的目标。与过去的几年一样，研究结果将在书籍或裁判期刊上发表，并在研究会议上介绍。有关该计划的更多信息，请参见https://cws.auburn.edu/apspi/pm/mathreu..this奖，反映了NSF的法定任务，并被认为是值得通过基金会的智力优点和更广泛影响的审查标准通过评估来获得支持的。
