Uspenskij * Others pending Workshop Lectures ----------------- There will be a workshop on metric and measurable spaces by Jeff Cheeger (to be confirmed) Special Sessions ---------------- * Applications to Computer Science * Dynamical Systems * Function Spaces * Set Theoretic Topology * Topological Groups and Their Actions Note that the conference is to be held in the Southern Hemisphere where it is winter in July. This means that such winter activities as skiing are at the top of the list of activities. A recent survey of Ski Resorts of the world put New Zealand Ski resorts at the second least expensive. There are other tourist activities available too: a geothermal area with geysers, amazing terraces and boiling mud pools; a volcanic island on the edge of the city; a bird sanctuary island; spectacular beaches; rainforest. Some participants may also be interested in the International Conference on Mathematics Education to be held in Auckland the following week. On a typical winter's day in Auckland the temperature should reach up to 13 or 14C, between 55 and 60F, while at night it may drop to 7 or 8C, the mid 40's F. Some rain is possible: however, it has not snowed in Auckland since 1976. A website has been set up for the conference. The address is http://www.math.auckland.ac.nz/Topology-2002/ Alternatively, the site http://sumtopo.home.att.net/ will shortly be updated to refer to the 2002 conference. %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% Thirty-Second Annual Lloyd Roeling/ University of Louisiana at Lafayette Mathematics Conference Topic: Topology Dates: November 2-4, 2001 Location: Lafayette, Louisiana Host: Department of Mathematics University of Louisiana at Lafayette Speakers: Pat Gilmer Cameron Gordan Gary Gruenhage Tom Ingram Jimmie Lawson Wayne Lewis Sergio Macias Sam Nadler Jim Rogers Carl Seaquist Please come and join us for our Thirty-Second Annual Lloyd Roeling/ University of Louisiana at Lafayette Mathematics Conference. **Topology** will be the topic for the conference, the first in this series in this new millennium. Our conference will be held from Friday November 2 through Sunday November 4. The first talk will be held early Friday afternoon and we will finish the last talk early in the afternoon on Sunday. Our conferences are usually quite enjoyable with good mathematics and good Cajun food and Cajun dancing. We will host a dinner on Friday night at a seafood restaurant and our usual shrimp boil on Saturday night. A schedule and information on hotels will be sent out at the beginning of the fall semester. There is no pre-registration and no registration fee.
