Mathematical Sciences: Fifth International Linear Algebra Society (ILAS) Conference

这次会议是关于线性代数及其应用的。这次会议特别强调的是结构化矩阵问题。在这方面将受到特别关注的主题是信号处理中出现的稀疏矩阵和特殊矩阵。这一重点将通过精心挑选的特邀演讲者和小型研讨会来实现。第二个焦点是线性代数的教育方面。重点将放在课程和教育工具上。矩阵是一个矩形数组，其中可能包含来自各种环的条目。这是一个起源于十九世纪的领域，是代数的一部分。鉴于它的许多应用和与数学的其他部分以及其他科学和技术学科的联系，它目前非常活跃。

This conference is concerned with linear algebra and its applications. The special emphasis of this meeting is structured matrix problems. Topics that will receive special attention in this context are sparse matrices and special matrices occurring in signal processing. This emphasis will be realized via carefully selected invited speakers and minisymposia. A second point of focus is the educational aspects of linear algebra. Emphasis will be put both on curriculum and educational tools. A matrix is a rectangular array with possible entries from a wide variety of rings. This is a field which originated in the nineteenth century as part of algebra. It is currently very active in view of its many applications and connections with other parts of mathematics as well as other scientific and technical disciplines.
