NSF/CBMS Regional Conference in the Mathematical Sciences - "The Dynamical Behavior of the Newtonian N-Body Problem" - "June 9-15, 2002"

东伊利诺伊大学数学系将于2002年6月9日至6月15日举办一次数学科学区域会议。会议的主题将是牛顿n体问题的动力学行为。n体问题是数学历史上最古老、最具挑战性的问题之一，需要动力学系统、几何、物理和分析方面的知识。加州大学欧文分校的唐纳德·萨里将发表一系列关于n体问题的历史、现状和未来展望的演讲。这些讲座将由数学科学会议委员会出版。

The Department of Mathematics at Eastern Illinois University will host a Conference Board of the Mathematical Sciences Regional Conference during the week of June 9 through June 15, 2002.The topic of the conference will be the dynamical behavior of the Newtonian N-body problem. The N-body problem is one of the oldest and most challenging problems in the history of mathematics requiring knowledge in dynamical systems, geometry, physics and analysis. Donald Saari, of the University of California-Irvine, will give a series of lectures on the history, present state and future outlook of the N-body problem. These lectures will be published by the Conference Board of the Mathematical Sciences.
