Mathematical Sciences: 1992 Spring Topology Conference; April 2-4, 1992, Charlotte, NC

北卡罗来纳大学夏洛特分校数学系将于1992年4月2日至4日主办1992年春季拓扑会议。以下公司计划发表一小时的演讲：W.P.瑟斯顿、S.C.Ferry、D.L.Sumners、L.G.Oversteegen、J.D.Stasheff、S.E.Newhouse、Jan Van Mill、F.X.Connolly、F.A.Raymond、Mike Reed和Dmitri Shakmatov。还将有十几个半小时的演讲和许多15分钟的演讲。预计到会人数将超过200人。作为最新成员的一系列会议已成为拓扑学的重要年度活动，特别是但不只是(如上述名册所示)一般拓扑学、点集拓扑学和连续体理论方面的会议。会议记录将发表在奥本大学出版的参考研究期刊《拓扑学进展》上。外部会议咨询委员会由Morton Brown(密歇根大学)、Peter J.Nyi kos(南卡罗来纳大学)、Mary Ellen Rudin(威斯康星大学)和Richard B.Sher(北卡罗来纳大学格林斯伯勒分校)组成。今年会议的一个新方面是为期一天的数学教育问题会议，将于4月1日举行，就在例会开始的前一天。这将利用威廉·瑟斯顿的出席以及他对此类问题的兴趣。会议安排的其他更常见的方面似乎也经过了同样深思熟虑。

The Department of Mathematics at the University of North Carolina at Charlotte will host the 1992 Spring Topology Conference from April 2-4, 1992. The following are scheduled to give one-hour addresses: W.P. Thurston, S.C. Ferry, D.L. Sumners, L.G. Oversteegen, J.D. Stasheff, S.E. Newhouse, Jan van Mill, F.X. Connolly, F.A. Raymond, Mike Reed, and Dmitri Shakmatov. There will be an additional dozen half-hour talks and numerous fifteen-minute talks. Attendance in excess of two hundred is expected. The series of conferences of which this is the latest member have become important annual events for topologisis, particularly, but not exclusively (as the above roster indicates), those in general topology, point-set topology and continua theory. The proceedings will be published in Topology Proceedings, a refereed research journal published by Auburn University. The external conference advisory committee consists of Morton Brown (University of Michigan), Peter J. Nyikos (University of South Carolina), Mary Ellen Rudin (University of Wisconsin), and Richard B. Sher (University of North Carolina at Greensboro). A novel aspect of this year's conference is the one-day conference on issues in mathematical education to be held April 1, the day immediately before the regular sessions begin. This will capitalize on William Thurston's presence and his interest in such issues. Other more usual aspects of the conference arrangements seem equally well thought out.
