On the occasion of the sixty-first birthday of Pierre Deligne, the School
of Mathematics will be hosting a four-day conference,
"Geometry and Arithmetic" during the period of October 17 to and including
October 20, 2005. The objectives of the
conference are to bring together scholars from a variety of mathematical fields
with a common interest in the methods
and ideas that Deligne has introduced into mathematics and to describe some
recent advances in different areas of
mathematics in a way that is accessible to non-experts from other fields.
Some funds are available for travel and accommodation for students and young
mathematicians attending the conference.
To apply for support, send a statement with a description of interests and
accomplishments as well as your CV to Michelle Huguenin,
(huguenin@ias.edu), at the Institute for
Advanced Study, School of Mathematics, Einstein Drive, Princeton, NJ 08540.
In addition, ask that a letter of recommendation, by a
mathematician who knows your research, be sent to the same
address. Also, please indicate if you wish to share
accommodations and a list will be compiled and sent to those interested in sharing.
REGISTRATION FOR THE MEALS IS REQUIRED. (Speakers do not need to register.)
REGISTRATION FOR THE CONFERENCE IS REQUIRED. (Speakers do not need to register.)
