2000 Summer Program for Graduate Students on

"Number Theory"

June 26-July 21, 2000

Organizer: Morley Davidson (Kent State University)

Recommended background: This program will assume as background only the core mathematics typically taught during a first year graduate course sequence, e.g., core techniques from real variables (power series) and complex variables (contour integrals), and will cover any further techniques as the necessity arises. Recommended background reading is contained in the descriptions provided by the speakers (linked in the schedule below.)

Registration Form

Please note that the Registration form is in Adobe Acrobat (.pdf) format and may be filled in online and printed out if you have a reasonably current version of Acrobat Reader (available for free online from Adobe.) Only students nominated by their department chair may register. Also, you will need the signature of your department chair if you wish to have your travel costs covered by the IMA. You may either mail or FAX the form to the IMA.

Site Information: Click on section D. You are able to view: the Math and Computer Science Building where the lectures take place, the Student Center where meals will be served, and the Twin Towers (McDowell and Beall) where students will be housed.
