Second announcement: Hyperplane Arrangements and Applications August 8 - 12, 2011 Pacific Institute of Mathematical Sciences University of British Columbia Vancouver, BC, Canada http://www.pims.math.ca/scientific-event/110808-haa This conference is in honour of Hiroaki Terao on his 60th birthday. The conference will highlight current research in hypergeometric integrals, differential forms and derivations on divisors, and combinatorial, algebraic, geometric, and topological aspects of hyperplane arrangements, and their applications. Speakers: Alejandro Adem (U. of British Columbia) Kazuhiko Aomoto (U. of Nagoya) Christos Athanasiadis (U. of Athens) Ryan Budney (U. of Victoria) James Carrell (U. of British Columbia) Daniel Cohen (Louisiana State U.) Emanuele Delucchi (Univ. Bremen) Mehdi Garroussian (U. of Western Ontario) Amanda Hager (USMA) Toshitake Kohno (U. Tokyo) Joseph Kung (U. of North Texas) Gustav Lehrer (U. of Sydney) Anatoly Libgober (U. of Illinois - Chicago) David Mond (U. of Warwick) Shaheen Nazir (National Univ. of Computer & Emerging Sciences, Lahore) Yasuhide Numata (U. of Tokyo) Richard Randell (U. of Iowa) Kyoji Saito (IPMU, Tokyo) Mario Salvetti (Universita di Pisa) Richard Stanley (Massachusetts Institute of Technology) Mathias Schulze (Oklahoma State U.) Daisuke Suyama (Hokkaido U.) Akimichi Takemura (U. of Tokyo) Stefan Tohaneanu (U. of Western Ontario) Masahiko Yoshinaga (U. of Tokyo) Organizers: Takuro Abe - Kyoto University Michael Falk - Northern Arizona University Max Wakefield - US Naval Academy Masahiko Yoshinaga - Kyoto University Sergey Yuzvinsky - University of Oregon Scientific committee: Alejandro Adem - University of British Columbia Graham Denham - University of Western Ontario Toshitake Kohno - University of Tokyo Peter Orlik - University of Wisconsin Hal Schenck - University of Illinois Alex Suciu - Northeastern University With generous financial support from PIMS, NSF, and Ken Terao, we expect to be able to cover the registration fee and some or all of local expenses for all participants. The deadline for lodging reservations at UBC is July 7. =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- This message was sent to you via the Geometry List, which announces conferences in geometry and closely related areas to over 1200 mathematicians worldwide. At http://listserv.utk.edu/archives/geometry.html there are many functions available, including checking the archives since November 2005, changing your e-mail address or preferences, and joining/leaving the list. If you have problems that cannot be resolved at this website, send a message to [log in to unmask] Before sending an announcement, please carefully read the following. Any announcements that are *not* about conferences (e.g. those about jobs, journals, books, etc.) will be rejected by the moderator without comment. To announce a geometry or closely related conference, send the announcement (including a conference web site if possible) to [log in to unmask] The moderator cannot edit your message; list members will receive the announcement as an e-mail from you EXACTLY as you submitted it. For example, if your submission starts with "Please post this on the geometry list" then your conference announcement will also begin with that statement. In order to keep down the volume of e-mail, only TWO announcements per conference will be approved by the moderator. The "subject" of your message should include the name of the conference and the number (first or second) of the announcement, e.g. Gauss Memorial Lectures in Geometry: Second Announcement. Please check that your announcement (especially the website) is correct. Corrections will be approved only in the most critical situations, e.g. if corrected information is not available on the website. If you send a submission from an e-mail address that is not subscribed to the geometry list then you will be sent an e-mail asking for confirmation. This feature is designed to thwart the hundreds of machine-generated spam that are sent to the list and would otherwise have to be manually blocked by the moderator. The Geometry List is sponsored and maintained by the Mathematics Department, The University of Tennessee, Knoxville.
