Workshop

Computational Arithmetic Geometry

Date: June 18 - 20, 2003.
Location: Carslaw Lecture Theatre 373,
Camperdown Campus,
University of Sydney, Australia
Description: An informal workshop, concentrating on computational arithmetic geometry and related topics. It is intended to have a relaxed schedule of talks, with ample time and opportunity for informal discussion.
Programme: A preliminary programme is now available. There is also a list of abstracts.

On Friday, June 20, 2pm, the workshop features the Mahler Lecture 2003:

Galois Theory and Primality Testing
Hendrik Lenstra Jr. (AustMS Kurt Mahler Lecturer 2003)

Scientific contributions: Participants are invited to contribute talks. I will try to accommodate all contributions, but in case of overwhelming response, I may have to make a selection. If you want to contribute a talk, please supply me with Title and Abstract.
Travel: The main Campus of the University of Sydney is located 15km north of Sydney-Airport (Kingsford-Smith). The conference site can be reached by taxi (about AUD 20 -25 currently), by bus and by train. Instructions for finding the Carslaw building are available via the School Homepage. A large Campus Map is also available.
Accommodation: The organization does not mediate in arranging for accommodation, but there is a list of nearby accommodations.
Funding: Funds are kindly provided by MAGMA and the Computational Algebra Group, School of Mathematics, University of Sydney. A very limited amount of financial support is available towards travel and accommodation costs. This is primarily intended for graduate students and post-docs within Australia. Ask the organizer for more information.
