Mathematical Sciences: Workshop-Conference in Ordered Algebraic Structures

这次会议将于1988年8月8日至13日在荷属安的列斯大学举行。它旨在开启佛罗里达大学和荷属安的列斯大学之间新的数学合作，从长远来看，这将成为美国和加勒比海盆地之间更广泛的科学交流的关键组成部分。此外，这次会议提供了一个机会，将有序的代数结构放在一个国际论坛上，为那些在数学不发达的加勒比地区的人提供一个机会，接触到国际上一系列杰出的数学家。预计将有来自该领域的一些年轻研究人员出席，并提供参与者支持。有序代数是数学发展中的一个重要组成部分，它借鉴了代数、分析和拓扑学，但也充满了自己的技巧。它正享受着一段重新受到关注和增长的时期，使这一主题成为召开会议的及时议题。本次会议的组织者是佛罗里达大学数学系的豪尔赫·马丁内斯教授。

This conference will be held at the University of the Netherlands Antilles, August 8-13, 1988. It is meant to inaugurate a fresh mathematical collaboration between the University of Florida and the University of the Netherlands Antilles, which in the long run will become a key component of a more general scientific exchange between the U.S. and the Caribbean basin. Also, the conference represents an opportunity to place ordered algebraic structures in an international forum, providing an opportunity for those in the mathematically underdeveloped Caribbean region to come into contact with an international array of outstanding mathematicians. Attendance is expected from a number of younger researchers from that area, and participant support is available. Ordered algebra is an important component in the development of mathematics, drawing from algebra, analysis, and topology, but also replete with techniques of its own. It is enjoying a period of renewed interest and growth, making the subject a timely one for a conference. The organizer of this conference is Professor Jorge Martinez of the Mathematics Department of the University of Florida.
