[compgeom-announce] Stony Brook Workshop on Computational and Conformal Geometry

["Stephen Vavasis" <vavasis@math.uwaterloo.ca>]

We would like to draw your attention to a workshop on computational and
conformal geometry at Stony Brook, NY on April 20-22 (Friday-Sunday) funded
by an NSF grant on the interactions of mathematics and computer science.
The organizers are Chris Bishop (Stony Brook) and Stephen Vavasis
(Waterloo). The list of speakers includes 

David Mumford           Joe Mitchell 
Tobin Driscoll          Marshall Bern 
Don Marshall            Jack Snoeyink 
Ilya Binder             David Hamilton 
Alan Saafeld            Ken Stephenson 
David Gu                Chris Bishop 
Vladimir Markovic       Lehel Banjai 

The topics represented by the speakers include circle packings,
computational geometry, meshing, cartography, pattern recognition,
theoretical and numerical conformal mappings, quasiconformal mappings,
Riemann surfaces and hyperbolic geometry.

Roughly, the speakers are drawn one third each from pure mathematics,
applied mathematics and computer science. All speakers have been encouraged
to give expository talks which emphasize open problems with the idea of
fostering new collaborations between these areas.

There is no registration fee, but please let us know by email
(ccg2007@math.sunysb.edu) if you are interested in coming to any talks, so
we have a rough idea of how many people to expect.

Titles, abstracts and a schedule will be posted on 

     www.math.sunysb.edu/~ccg2007 

This page also contain some information on local hotels and transportation.
