Topic: Geometry through Lie groups Dates of program: June 13 - July 1, 2011 Organizer: Kevin Wortman Travel support, on-campus housing, and stipend funds are available for US citizens, nationals, and permanent residents. Purpose Our program will introduce undergraduates to Lie groups, Riemannian manifolds, and discrete group actions. Participants will be introduced to research by being presented with open ended problems to explore. We do not necessarily expect publishable results to follow directly from our workshop, but we do expect to otherwise create a comprehensive research experience with the aim of providing participants with a more informed opinion from which to make decisions about advancing their mathematics education. The only prerequisites are multivariable calculus and linear algebra. Eligibility Funding is only available for US citizen or permanent residents who are currently registered in an accredited undergraduate program. Students who are not US citizens, permanent residents can also apply for an unfunded position. Application ProcessTo apply: We dont accept applications anymoreApplicants to this program are also encouraged to apply to the Park City Undergraduate Summer School, meeting immediately after the REU, from July 3-23, 2011 Park City Mathematics Institute's Summer Program.
