Midwest Several Complex Variables Conference at Syracuse University

中西部几个复杂变量会议将于2003年10月10日至12日在锡拉丘兹大学举行。这将延续中西部几个复杂变量会议的悠久传统，该会议已成为复杂分析领域最高质量和最成功的会议系列之一。近年来，在这一领域的不同领域有了许多有趣的新进展，特别是在复几何、复动力学、偏微分方程和多势理论等方面。会议将提供一个论坛来交流和激发这些学科的新思想，并制定新的具有挑战性的问题，这些问题将具有重要的科学影响。预计这将导致对复杂分析中更深层次数学问题的理解的增加。会议主讲人包括：Thomas Bloom（多伦多大学），Araceli Bonifant（纽约州立大学石溪分校），Jeffrey Diller（圣母大学），Peter Ebenfelt（加州大学圣迭戈分校），Vincent Guedj（图卢兹Paul Sabatier大学），SergeiIvashkovich（里尔科学技术大学），Imre Patyi（加州大学圣迭戈分校），Jean-Pierre Rosay（威斯康星大学麦迪逊分校），RasulShafikov（纽约州立大学石溪分校），Mei-Chi Shaw（圣母大学），B.Alan Taylor（密歇根大学），Sophia Vassiliadou（乔治城大学），Brendan Weickert（华盛顿和李大学），Jan Wiegerinck（阿姆斯特丹大学）。复分析是一个涉及复数来解决数学问题的跨学科领域。会议将探讨复杂几何、复杂动力学、偏微分方程和多能理论等多个广泛领域的相互作用。这些学科的许多发展在其传统领域之外找到了新的应用。我们相信，举办这样一个高水平的会议将大大有利于美国数学家。这对教育我们的研究生和最近的博士学位特别有帮助，为他们提供了与在该领域前沿工作的领先专家接触的机会。我们将特别注意在与会者和演讲者中吸引年轻的科学家。会议预算的很大一部分是专门为此划拨的。将努力增加参加会议的妇女人数。为了传播有关会议的信息，组织者创建了一个网站（地址：http://web.syr.edu/ dcoman/SCV/），在那里可以找到演讲摘要和建议的问题。

A Midwest Several Complex Variables Conference will be held on October 10-12,2003, at Syracuse University. This will continue the long time tradition of MidwestSeveral Complex Variables Conferences which became one of the highest quality andmost successful conference series in Complex Analysis. There have been many newinteresting developments in different fields of this area in recent years, especially inComplex Geometry, Complex Dynamics, Partial Differential Equations and PluripotentialTheory. The conference will provide a forum to exchange and to stimulatenew ideas from these disciplines, and to formulate new challenging problems that willhave important scientific impact. It is expected that this will result in increased understandingof the deeper mathematical issues in Complex Analysis. The conferencespeakers include: Thomas Bloom (University of Toronto), Araceli Bonifant (SUNY atStony Brook), Jeffrey Diller (University of Notre Dame), Peter Ebenfelt (University ofCalifornia, San Diego), Vincent Guedj (University Paul Sabatier, Toulouse), SergeiIvashkovich (Universit des Sciences et Technologies de Lille), Imre Patyi (Universityof California, San Diego), Jean-Pierre Rosay (University of Wisconsin, Madison), RasulShafikov (SUNY at Stony Brook), Mei-Chi Shaw (University of Notre Dame), B.Alan Taylor (University of Michigan), Sophia Vassiliadou (Georgetown University),Brendan Weickert (Washington and Lee University), Jan Wiegerinck (University ofAmsterdam).Complex Analysis is an interdisciplinary field involving complex numbers to solveproblems in mathematics. The conference will explore the interplay of research whichhas taken place in a number of broad areas: Complex Geometry, Complex Dynamics,Partial Differential Equations and Pluripotential Theory. Many of the developmentsin these disciplines found new applications outside their traditional area. We believethat hosting such a high level conference will greatly benefit the US mathematicians.It is especially helpful in educating our graduate students and recent Ph.D.'s, providingthem with the opportunity to be in touch with the leading experts working onthe frontier of the field. We will give special attention to attracting young scientistsamong the participants and speakers. A significant part of the conference budget isallocated especially for this. An effort will be made to increase the number of womenwho will attend the conference. To disseminate the information about the conferencethe organizers created a web site (address: http://web.syr.edu/ dcoman/SCV/),where abstracts of talks and suggested problems will be found.
