Mathematics of surfaces IX
4 Września 2000 - 4 Września 2000
United Kingdom
The ninth �Institute of Mathematics and its Applications� conference on the subject, �mathematics of surfaces�, will be held at the University of Cambridge, UK, from 4 to 6 September 2000.
Computer-based methods for the construction, representation, and manipulation of complicated surfaces have led to a wide interest in and need for surface mathematics, say the conference organisers. Several international authorities in the field will present their work at the event and the organisers are now calling for contributed papers, which will be refereed by an international programme committee.
Three types of paper are sought:
- Survey papers describing the state of the art of an aspect of the mathematics of surfaces;
- Research papers presenting new developments in the visual recognition, manipulation, representation, design and approximation of surfaces, with an emphasis on computational methods and their underlying mathematical principles;
- Papers covering practical applications of surface mathematics which could indicate directions for the research community.
Conference organisers expect this combination of topics will be of interest to a wide audience of mathematicians, computer scientists and engineers. It should also be of interest to many others who are already developing or using computer-based descriptions of surfaces or who wish to become acquainted with the underlying ideas and potential applications of such methods.
A key feature will be the interplay of ideas between theoreticians in the subject and users of the techniques. It is hoped that the conference will stimulate research ideas from users and developers of surface modelling systems by presentations of novel problems that may require new theoretical solutions.
