兰州大学拓扑场论与引力方向理论物理学术交流与人才培育平台建设

Theoretical physics in Lanzhou University has trained a lot of talents for our country. However, due to the backwardness in western China as well as the loss of talents, our development of theoretical physics in Lanzhou University has been facing many unprecedented difficulties in recent years. After supporting by the Theoretical Physics Special Funding of National Natural Science Foundation in the past three years and supporting strongly by our university and college, the construction of our theoretical direction has been paying off. Now, there are 22 young teachers, and the research fields include particle physics, topological field theory and gravity, condensed matter physics, quantum optics, quantum information, statistical physics and complex systems, and so forth. In 2013, we will mainly support the team in topological field theory and gravity based on the established academic communication platform of theoretical physics, and simultaneously, take into account the development of other teams. We plan to convene an academic conference about string/M theory, gravity and topological field theory on the scale of about 50 people in the midyear, and some small-scale symposiums in other areas. We also plan to invite 15 renowned scholars to visit Lanzhou University and give lectures, and support 7 young teachers to visit other Universities or institutes. Under these specific measures, we expect that we can achieve the purposes on three aspects: first, continue to improve the research level of the teachers in theoretical physics of Lanzhou University; second, cultivate the back-up talents; and last, drive the development of the theoretical physics in western China.

兰州大学理论物理专业为祖国培养了一大批理论物理专业人才。但后来由于西部落后的大环境以及人才的流失，理论物理方向面临前所未有的困难。最近三年得到国家自然科学基金委“理论物理专款”的特别资助, 在学校学院的大力支持下，理论物理方向的建设已初显成效。目前有青年教师22人，在粒子物理、拓扑场论与引力理论、凝聚态理论、量子光学和量子信息、统计物理和复杂系统等方向开展工作。2013年度我们将在已经建立的理论物理学术交流平台的基础上，主要建设拓扑场论与引力方向, 同时兼顾其它方向的发展。在年中召开弦论与引力及其应用方面规模50人左右的学术会议以及其他方向的小规模专题研讨会。计划邀请15人次国内外知名学者来兰州大学讲学，资助7人次青年老师外出访问。希望通过这些具体活动的实施，达到三个方面的目的，一是继续提高兰州大学理论专业教师的科研水平，二是培养后备人才，三是带动西北地区理论物理的发展。

通过2013年度的专项基金支持，我们圆满的完成了该年度的兰州大学拓扑场论与引力方向理论物理学术交流与人才培育平台建设。举办了一次小型暑期学校和三次中小型学术会议，邀请了15名高水平学者来兰大做学术讲座或进行短期合作，使得兰大理论物理专业师生与国内外同行有了更广泛而深入的交流。通过这些交流讨论，部分研究组已经开始在相关问题的研究上一起合作，有的研究组已经与国内外合作者已经进行了深入的合作，从而提高了青年教师的研究实力和研究生的科研水平，以及兰州大学理论物理的认知度。这些学术活动有效的巩固了兰大理论物理交流平台近几年来的建设，提升了理论物理整个研究团队的实力，同时也对西部地区理论物理的发展起到了辐射带动作用，对提高我国西部地区理论物理的研究水平具有重要的意义。
