| International Conference on Clifford Analysis, Its Applications and Related Topics In honour of Professor Loo-keng Hua at the occasion of his 90th Birthday Sponsored by: Academia Sinica, Chinese Mathematical Society August 1 - 6, 2000 - Beijing, People's Republic of China SECOND ANNOUNCEMENT THE IDEA: The main goal is to bring together scientists active in Clifford analysis and its applications to mathematical physics and mathematicians from complex function theory in one or more dimensions. Especially, applications to harmonic analysis, the study of singular integral operators, and numerical methods based on Clifford analytic or function theoretic approaches should be covered by the conference. Other ideas are welcome. ORGANIZING COMMITTEE: Z. H. Chen, A. N. Fang (both Shanghai, China), X. H. Ji, J. S. Na , J. Wang, X. N. Ye, W. P. Yin, Y. Z. Zhang (all Beijing, China), K.

There will be survey lectures (45 minutes) on selected topics from areas in the field of the conference and short communications (30 minutes) on recent research results of the participants. Poster representations will be organized, too. ABSTRACTS: Please send your abstract of maximal one LaTeX-page not later than June, 30 by e-mail to xhji@math03.math.ac.cn (Xinhua Ji), jryan@comp.uark.edu (John Ryan) or sproessig@math.tu-freiberg.de (Wolfgang Sproessig) All abstracts should be organized as follows: Title // Author(s) // Address // e-mail // Text DATES: The Conference will be held in the Beijing Science and Technology Center No.4 Yu Hui Li Chaoyang District 100101 Beijing P.R. China Tel.: (010)64950077-2222 Fax: (010)64969887 The arrival day is July 31, 2000; the departure day is August 7, 2000. ACCOMODATION: The science and technology center includes a four star hotel in the same building. All the lectures and meetings will be held in this hotel. A limited number of rooms will be offered with a special conference rate (about 220 YUAN per night and double-room, 420 YUAN in a suite, all participants have to pay cash in YUAN, credit-cards will not be accepted at the conference hotel). All the rooms include bathroom, TV, telephon, air condition; a business center offers fax, copy service, and PC's with internet access). For reservation contact the science and technology center directly. It is possible to stay in the conference hotel also some days after the conference. There are also some five star hotels (about 1000 YUAN, downtown, 30 min taxi drive to the conference hotel) available. For reservations in five star hotels please contact Janet Liu from the Beijing Tour East Pacific Air Service Co. Ltd. Suite 1005, Office Tower 2, No. 138 Wangfujing Dajie, Beijing 100006, China Tel. 86-10-65280591/92/93/94 Fax 86-10-65280596 e-mail: tepa@toureast.com.cn or janet@toureast.com Participants should make their own arrangements for accommodation and should inform the conference's main organizer of their choice. The mentioned travel agency will also help in organizing some touristic activities after the conference. With the exception of Tibet tours which are also offered you will find full information under www.toureast.com If you book in the Chinese office then the prices are lower than in the internet offer. At the moment 1 USD = 8.3 YUAN. Money exchange is possible without problems at the airport. The conference hotel will organize a bus transfer to a bank where you also can arrange the exchange. We recommend to keep the receipt of this operation. This will avoid problems to exchange back at the end. Only very few shops and restaurants accept credit-cards, to get cash money with a card is complicated and it is not recommended to make your plan based on this idea. TRANSPORTATION: Direct flights to Beijing are available from the most mayor cities. Beijing has only one international airport, approximately 30 km outside of the city. There is no railway line to the airport. A shuttle transfer will be organized by the conference hotel. To keep the costs small we kindly ask you to inform the hotel in advance about your arrival time. Near to the airport exit you will find the taxi stop. Taxi transportation to the conference hotel takes 60 100 YUAN. REGISTRATION FEE: 200 US dollars for participants 100 US dollars for accompanying persons, children aged six and under stay free For participants from the former Soviet Union this fee is 60 US dollars (= 500 Yuan). Participants from developing countries may apply for this reduced conference fee, too. Unfortunately we have no other possibility for financial support of participants. The fee will be collected after arrival in the conference office. The conference fee includes: * Shuttle service from and to the airport * tea and snacks in the breaks, lunch * abstracts * proceedings * excursion on August 3, 2000. FINAL REGISTRATION FORM: Please fill in the final registration form and send it back to the conference address by ordinary mail not later than May, 15. Please pay attention to the fact that the most people will need visa to enter China. For this reason the Chinese Academy of Science will send out in the beginning of June the formal invitation which you will need for the visa application process. SOCIAL ACTIVITIES: On August 3, 2000, an excursion to the Great Wall and the Ming tombs will be organized. During the conference the hotel offers each day sightseeing tours in Beijing for accompanying persons. The conference office will help you to make arrangement for private tours after the conference (Xian, Shanghai, Tibet ...). INTERNET ADDRESS: Updated further information on the conference (including proceedings, the scientific programme, touristic aspects) will be available at http://www.mathe.tu-freiberg.de/beijing2000 . | |
