Synopsis

The Algebra and Number Theory program supports research in algebra, algebraic and arithmetic geometry, number theory, and representation theory.

Conference proposals

The Algebra and Number Theory program also provides support for conferences, workshops, summer/winter schools, and similar activities. Proposals should be submitted to PD 20-1264 using the "Conference" proposal type in research.gov.

Proposals with budgets not exceeding $50,000, which in accordance with NSF policy can be reviewed internally, should be submitted:

  • in May for events that will take place in January through April of the following year
  • in October for events that will take place in May through December of the following year.
