Workshop Announcement: ---------------------------------------------------------------- Relating test ideals and multiplier ideals ---------------------------------------------------------------- August 8 to August 12, 2011 American Institute of Mathematics Research Conference Center Palo Alto, California http://aimath.org/ARCC/workshops/testideals.html ------------ Description: ------------ This workshop, sponsored by AIM and the NSF, will be devoted to the connection between two prominent and distinct means of measuring singularities: the multiplier ideal in complex algebraic geometry, and the test ideal in positive characteristic commutative algebra. The workshop is organized by Karl Schwede and Kevin Tucker. For more details please see the workshop announcement page: http://aimath.org/ARCC/workshops/testideals.html Space and funding is available for a few more participants. If you would like to participate, please apply by filling out the on-line form (available at the link above) no later than . Applications are open to all, and we especially encourage women, underrepresented minorities, junior mathematicians, and researchers from primarily undergraduate institutions to apply. -------------------------------- AIM Research Conference Center: -------------------------------- The American Institute of Mathematics (AIM) hosts focused workshops in all areas of the mathematical sciences. AIM focused workshops are distinguished by their emphasis on a specific mathematical goal, such as making progress on a significant unsolved problem, understanding the proof of an important new result, or investigating the convergence between two distinct areas of mathematics.
