Federal Project Grant Award Summary The National Science Foundation (NSF) Division of Mathematical Sciences awarded $130,000 to William Marsh Rice University under the Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049) on October 1, 2025, with completion scheduled for May 31, 2027. This project grant funds fundamental research in algebraic geometry, specifically investigating the geometry of hyperkähler varieties and rationality through three integrated research initiatives: (1) studying birational transformations of hyperkähler varieties to identify Brauer classes on K3 surfaces and their connections to rationality of cubic fourfold families; (2) examining the arithmetic behavior of rationality in fourfold families; and (3) characterizing rationality for conic bundle threefolds using intermediate Jacobian torsor obstruction theory. In addition to advancing mathematical knowledge in algebraic geometry, the award supports research training for undergraduate and graduate students and includes outreach activities designed to strengthen participation in algebraic geometry from underrepresented backgrounds. The project integrates theoretical research with professional development, positioning it within NSF's broader mission to strengthen the Nation's scientific enterprise and advance fundamental mathematical understanding.
