The proposed conference "I. M. Gelfand Centennial conference: A view of 21st century mathematics" will be held at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology on August 28 - September 2, 2013. It will be a major gathering of mathematicians working in a large variety of fields, which will review some of the most significant advances in mathematics since the turn of the century, and commemorate the late I. M. Gelfand, a giant of modern mathematics, on the occasion of the centennial of his birth. The speakers at the conference are mostly mathematicians who have obtained fundamental results in the last ten years in areas that would be have been of interest to Gelfand, but not necessarily close to his work or the work of his students.I. M. Gelfand was one of the geniuses who laid the foundation for the main ideas of modern mathematics. He also created a unique school known for its breadth, open-mindedness and originality. The success of Gelfand's school was based on his remarkable ability to discover talented young students, to educate them, and to work in harmony with young and established researchers. The conference will continue this tradition by attracting outstanding mathematicians and will include many graduate students and postdoctoral fellows. The latter groups will especially benefit from the broad spectrum of the topics and big ideas to be presented at the conference. The slides of the talks and other conference information will be disseminated through its website, which will allow the discussed ideas to reach a wide audience throughout the world.

会议提出的“一。M.格尔范德百年纪念会议：21世纪世纪数学观”将于2013年8月28日至9月2日在马萨诸塞州理工学院举行。 这将是一个数学家在各种领域的工作，这将审查一些最重要的进展，数学自世纪之交，并纪念已故的我。M. Gelfand，现代数学的巨人，在他百年诞辰之际。 会议的发言者大多数是数学家谁已经取得了基本成果，在过去十年的领域，将一直感兴趣的Gelfand，但不一定接近他的工作或他的学生的工作。M. Gelfand是一个天才谁奠定了基础的主要思想，现代数学。 他还创建了一个独特的学校，以其广度，开放性和独创性而闻名。 Gelfand的学校的成功是基于他卓越的能力，发现有才华的年轻学生，教育他们，并与年轻和建立和谐的研究人员。 会议将继续这一传统，吸引杰出的数学家，并将包括许多研究生和博士后研究员。 后一组将特别受益于会议上提出的广泛主题和重大想法。 会议的幻灯片和其他会议信息将通过其网站传播，这将使世界各地的广大受众能够了解所讨论的想法。 会议网址：http://math.mit.edu/conferences/Gelfand/index.php
