TRAVEL: INTERNATIONAL CONGRESS OF MATHEMATICIANS (ICM) 2026 IN PHILADELPHIA, USA, JULY 23-30, 2026 -THE QUADRENNIAL INTERNATIONAL CONGRESS OF MATHEMATICIANS (ICM) IS THE PREEMINENT INTERNATIONAL GATHERING OF MATHEMATICIANS IN THE WORLD. ORGANIZED BY THE INTERNATIONAL MATHEMATICAL UNION, AN ORGANIZATION WITH 87 ADHERING MEMBER NATIONS, INCLUDING THE UNITED STATES, THE ICM SERVES AS A GLOBAL FORUM FOR MATHEMATICIANS TO PRESENT AND LEARN ABOUT NEW MATHEMATICAL DEVELOPMENTS, DIRECTIONS OF FUTURE RESEARCH, APPLICATIONS, IDEAS FOR PEDAGOGY, AND METHODOLOGIES FOR DISSEMINATING AND ARCHIVING MATHEMATICAL KNOWLEDGE. IN 2026, THE ICM WILL BE HELD IN PHILADELPHIA, PA, ON JULY 23 ? 30, WITH AN ANTICIPATED 5,000 INDIVIDUALS FROM AROUND THE WORLD ATTENDING. WITH SUPPORT FROM THIS GRANT THE AMERICAN MATHEMATICAL SOCIETY WILL ADVERTISE AND EXECUTE A PROGRAM TO PROVIDE TRAVEL GRANTS FOR APPROXIMATELY 140 US-BASED MATHEMATICIANS. THE SOCIETY HAS ADMINISTERED SIMILAR TRAVEL GRANT PROGRAMS FOR PREVIOUS ICM GATHERINGS, BEGINNING WITH ICM-90 IN KYOTO, JAPAN. THE PARTICIPATION OF A ROBUST CONTINGENT OF US-BASED MATHEMATICIANS IN THESE EVENTS HELPS TO SUSTAIN THE US?S WORLD LEADERSHIP POSITION IN MATHEMATICAL RESEARCH AND CONTRIBUTES DIRECTLY TO THE US?S KNOWLEDGE INFRASTRUCTURE, NATIONAL SECURITY, INDUSTRY, AND COMMERCE. STUDENTS AND RESEARCHERS SUPPORTED BY THIS GRANTS PROGRAM WILL HAVE RICH OPPORTUNITIES TO LEARN FROM AND INTERACT WITH RESEARCHERS FROM AROUND THE WORLD AND SHARE THEIR DISCOVERIES AND INSIGHTS. THE 2026 ICM STRUCTURE COMMITTEE HAS SET THE FOLLOWING TWENTY TOPICAL SECTIONS FOR THE CONGRESS: LOGIC; ALGEBRA; NUMBER THEORY; ALGEBRAIC AND COMPLEX GEOMETRY; GEOMETRY; TOPOLOGY; LIE THEORY AND GENERALIZATIONS; ANALYSIS; DYNAMICS; PARTIAL DIFFERENTIAL EQUATIONS; MATHEMATICAL PHYSICS; PROBABILITY; COMBINATORICS; MATHEMATICS OF COMPUTER SCIENCE; NUMERICAL ANALYSIS AND SCIENTIFIC COMPUTING; CONTROL THEORY AND OPTIMIZATION; STATISTICS, MACHINE LEARNING, IMAGE AND SIGNAL PROCESSING; STOCHASTIC AND DIFFERENTIAL MODELING; MATHEMATICAL EDUCATION AND POPULARIZATION OF MATHEMATICS; AND HISTORY OF MATHEMATICS. THROUGH PLENARY INVITED LECTURES, SPECIAL SESSIONS, AND OTHER ACTIVITIES, THE OPPORTUNITIES FOR PARTICIPANTS TO EXCHANGE IDEAS IN THESE SECTIONS ARE PLENTIFUL. THE 2026 ICM WILL INCORPORATE THE MOST PRESTIGIOUS AWARDS AND LECTURES IN THE MATHEMATICAL SCIENCES: THE FIELDS MEDAL, ABACUS MEDAL, GAUSS PRIZE, CHERN MEDAL AWARD, THE EMMY NOETHER LECTURE, AND LEELAVATI PRIZE. 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.- SUBAWARDS ARE NOT PLANNED FOR THIS AWARD.

TRAVEL: INTERNATIONAL CONGRESS OF MATHEMATICIANS 2026: ADMINISTRATION OF TRAVEL GRANTS FOR GRADUATE STUDENTS AND EARLY CAREER MATHEMATICIANS IN INTERDISCIPLINARY FIELDS -THE INTERNATIONAL CONGRESS OF MATHEMATICIANS (ICM), TO BE HELD IN PHILADELPHIA, PA, FROM JULY 23 TO 30, 2026, IS THE WORLD?S LEADING GATHERING OF MATHEMATICIANS AND A KEY VENUE FOR ESTABLISHING COLLABORATIONS AND EXPLORING EMERGING RESEARCH DIRECTIONS. MATHEMATICS RESEARCH IS INCREASINGLY COLLABORATIVE AND INTERDISCIPLINARY, PARTICULARLY IN AREAS SUCH AS ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE, QUANTUM COMPUTING, DATA SCIENCE, AND COMPUTATIONAL SCIENCE. SUPPORTING EARLY-CAREER RESEARCHERS ENGAGED IN THESE AREAS ACCELERATES THEIR INTEGRATION INTO GLOBAL RESEARCH NETWORKS AND HELPS BUILD THE NEXT GENERATION OF CROSS-DISCIPLINARY EXPERTISE IN THE UNITED STATES. THE AMERICAN MATHEMATICAL SOCIETY WILL ADMINISTER A PRIORITY-AREA-FOCUSED PROGRAM TO SUPPORT A TARGETED COHORT OF GRADUATE STUDENTS AND EARLY-CAREER MATHEMATICIANS THROUGH COMPETITIVE TRAVEL GRANTS. THIS PROGRAM EXPANDS ACCESS TO ICM PARTICIPATION BY FOCUSING ON APPLICANTS WHO DEMONSTRATE STRONG POTENTIAL FOR INTERDISCIPLINARY RESEARCH ALIGNED WITH NSF PRIORITIES, INCLUDING ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE AND QUANTUM COMPUTING. BY ENABLING PARTICIPATION AT THE ICM, THIS PROGRAM WILL HELP EARLY-CAREER RESEARCHERS ESTABLISH CONNECTIONS, GAIN EXPOSURE TO EMERGING FIELDS, AND CONTRIBUTE TO THE DEVELOPMENT OF A ROBUST PIPELINE OF MATHEMATICIANS WORKING AT THE INTERFACE OF MATHEMATICS AND OTHER DISCIPLINES.

TRAVEL: EXPANDING U.S. MATHEMATICIAN ACCESS AND PARTICIPATION AT THE 2026 INTERNATIONAL CONGRESS OF MATHEMATICIANS -THE INTERNATIONAL CONGRESS OF MATHEMATICIANS (ICM), TO BE HELD IN PHILADELPHIA, PA, FROM JULY 23 TO 30, 2026, IS THE LEADING GLOBAL VENUE FOR MATHEMATICAL EXCHANGE AND A KEY DRIVER OF RESEARCH DIRECTIONS AND INTERNATIONAL COLLABORATION. IT IS ALSO AN INCREASINGLY IMPORTANT PLATFORM FOR ADVANCING INTERDISCIPLINARY AREAS SUCH AS ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE AND QUANTUM COMPUTING, WHERE MATHEMATICAL INNOVATION UNDERPINS RAPID TECHNOLOGICAL PROGRESS. MID-CAREER MATHEMATICIANS, TYPICALLY 8 TO 20 YEARS BEYOND THE PHD, PLAY A PIVOTAL ROLE IN THIS ECOSYSTEM. THEY LEAD RESEARCH PROGRAMS, MENTOR EARLY-CAREER SCHOLARS, AND BUILD COLLABORATIVE NETWORKS THAT CONNECT MATHEMATICS WITH FIELDS SUCH AS AI, DATA SCIENCE, AND QUANTUM INFORMATION. DESPITE THIS CENTRAL ROLE, THEY OFTEN LACK DEDICATED SUPPORT FOR SUSTAINED INTERNATIONAL ENGAGEMENT. THE AMERICAN MATHEMATICAL SOCIETY WILL DEVELOP, PROMOTE, AND EXECUTE A TRAVEL GRANTS PROGRAM TO PROVIDE TARGETED FINANCIAL SUPPORT FOR APPROXIMATELY 70 U.S.-BASED MID-CAREER MATHEMATICIANS TO PARTICIPATE IN THE CONGRESS. THIS PROGRAM COMPLEMENTS EXISTING NSF-SUPPORTED TRAVEL PROGRAMS FOCUSED ON GRADUATE STUDENTS, EARLY-CAREER RESEARCHERS, AND INVITED SPEAKERS BY ADDRESSING A DISTINCT AND CRITICAL CAREER STAGE. AWARDS WILL BE MADE THROUGH A COMPETITIVE REVIEW PROCESS THAT PRIORITIZES APPLICANTS WITH STRONG POTENTIAL TO INITIATE OR EXPAND COLLABORATIVE RESEARCH ACTIVITIES. PARTICIPATION AT THIS CAREER STAGE STRENGTHENS RESEARCH GROUPS, SUPPORTS MENTORSHIP NETWORKS, AND ENABLES THE FORMATION OF NEW COLLABORATIONS THAT INFLUENCE THE DIRECTION OF HIGH-IMPACT FIELDS. IN TURN, THIS SUPPORT REINFORCES THE LONG-TERM VITALITY AND IMPACT OF THE U.S. MATHEMATICAL SCIENCES ENTERPRISE ACROSS ACADEMIA, INDUSTRY, AND GOVERNMENT.
