What is The Standard For Project Management"?
I assume that it is one of the ISO/ANSI/etc standards. As far as I know PMI doesn't have a separate standard for project management because the PMBoK is the standard fro project management.
There is the Standard for Organizational Project Management that as PMI describe it provides a framework to align project, program, and portfolio management practices with organizational strategy and objectives while the PMBoK is focused on management of projects only, Saving Changes...

To save time there and avoid similar question about other PM areas there are many similar standards standards, ie Risk Management ISO, COSO PMI.

Therefore, PMI developed and published A Guide to the Project Management Body of Knowledge (PMBOK® Guide).
PMI defines the project management body of knowledge (PMBOK) as a term that describes the knowledge within the profession of project management.
The project management body of knowledge includes proven traditional practices that are widely applied as well as innovative practices that are emerging in the profession." Saving Changes...

Can someone give it a try with the second part of the question? I didn't find a direct answer within the PMBOK® Guide.
There are several standards for various aspects of PM, e.g., IS0 21500, 10006, 15188, etc. and most of them are based on PMBOK. PMBOK is not a standard but is the basis for the standards.
