INTEGERS CONFERENCE 2003
On the Occasion of the 65th Birthday of Tom Brown
October 31 – November 2, 2003 Carrollton, Georgia
The Department of Mathematics at the State University of West Georgia is pleased to announce the Integers Conference 2003 in combinatorial number theory. The purpose of the conference is to bring together mathematicians, students, and others interested in combinatorics and number theory. We will also be honoring Professor Tom Brown, on the occasion of his 65th birthday, for his significant contributions to the field.
Registration: There is no registration fee. However, all participants must register in advance due to limited seating. To do so, send an e-mail message to integers@westga.edu, no later than Monday, September 29, requesting your name be included in the list of registrants for the conference. You will receive a reply to your e-mail; if the reply states that you are registered, then this confirms your registration (we hope we are able to accommodate all who wish to attend).
Speakers: Among the Plenary Speakers will be Ronald Graham (UC-San Diego), Carl Pomerance (Dartmouth), Melvyn Nathanson (Lehman College, CUNY) and Jaroslav Nesetril (Charles University, Prague). There will also be many Invited Papers; if you would like to present an invited paper, send the title and a .tex or .pdf file no later than Monday, September 29. We welcome talks from any of the mathematical subject areas covered by the journal Integers: Electronic Journal of Combinatorial Number Theory. Aside from the Plenary talks, all talks will be scheduled for 20-minute time slots. (Note: as there is a ceiling on the number of speakers we are able to accomodate, we recommend you get this information in as soon as possible – requests to present papers will be honored in the order in which they are received; we cannot guarantee that all requests to present papers will be honored).
Proceedings: Papers presented at the conference will be considered for publication in a special issue of Integers: Electronic Journal of Combinatorial Number Theory. Completed texts must be submitted by January 8th, 2004, and will be handled according to the journal’s usual refereeing process.
Schedule: The conference talks will take place within the hours of Friday, October 31, 9:30AM-5:30PM; Saturday, November 1, 9:00AM – 5:30PM; and Sunday, November 2, 9:00AM-2PM. A more detailed scheduled will be sent out later.
Location and Parking: The conference will be held on the campus of the State University of West Georgia in Carrollton. The city of Carrollton is about 45 miles west of Atlanta. Those coming by air should fly to Atlanta. Directions and maps of the campus will be sent to all those who register. On campus parking passes will be provided to those needing one. A block of rooms will be set aside for a special reduced rate at the Holiday Inn Express in Carrollton. Please let us know as soon as possible if you wish to be counted in this block.
