Title: SHAPES, GEOMETRY AND ALGEBRA: SAGA Network
Event
WORKSHOP & SAGA KICK-OFF
SHAPES, GEOMETRY AND ALGEBRA
http://www.saga_ciem.unican.es
NOVEMBER 17-21, 2008
CIEM
International Center for Mathematical
Meetings
http://www.ciem.unican.es/?q=en
Castro-Urdiales, Spain
Supported
by EC through the Marie Curie ITN Network SAGA
http://www.saga-network.eu
AIMS AND SCOPE
The meeting will start Monday afternoon and will end Friday early
afternoon and is held in conjunction with the Kick-Off event of
the SAGA Network. The first part of the meeting (monday to wednesday)
will be devoted to present the SAGA Network to the participants and
the second part will include several keynote speakers together with
contributed talks from the participants.
The meeting aims at supporting the exchange of ideas between the
fields of Algebraic Geometry, Numerical Analysis, and Geometric
Modelling. Topics of interest include:
Geometry of curves and surfaces.
Rational/implicit representation.
Resultant constructions and implicitization.
Singularities: detection and analysis.
Curves and surfaces classification.
Intersection problems.
Approximate and/ or certified methods.
Computer Implementations of Algorithmic Algebraic
Geometry.
Isogeometric Analysis.
PARTICIPATION
1. Registration:
Fill in the form available at the web page or the one included at
the end of this email and send it by email to saga_ciem@unican.es.
Deadline for registration is November 10, 2008.
2. Abstract submission:
Those interested in giving a talk, please include title and
abstract (plain text, less than 800 characters) in the registration
form at the end of this email. The selection of talks will be based on
assessing the suitability with the workshop topics of interest.
3. Registration fees:
The registration fee for attending the whole event is 235 euros
including five lunches and the social dinner on Thursday evening. The
registration fee for attending only the workshop on Thursday and
Friday is 140 euros including two lunches and the social dinner on

Information about the registration fees payment will be sent to
every participant once the registration form is received.
4. Accomodation and travelling information:
Traveling information will be shortly available at the web
page http://www.saga_ciem.unican.es but Bilbao airport is the
most convenient airport to reach Castro Urdiales.
Once the registration form is received, each participant will be
contacted by AFID Congresos with the information concerning hotel
reservation and local transportation from Bilbao airport to Castro
Urdiales.
Participants will be lodged at Hotel Las Rocas
(http://www.lasrocashotel.com/eng/index-eng.htm), located five minutes
walking from the CIEM building.
Any question about logistics, accomodation and transportation can
be directed to AFID Congresos by email to
saga@afidcongresos.com or by
phone (+34-942318180: ask for Marta Isla or Esther Pazos) or fax
(+34-942318653).
SAGA RECRUITING EVENT
The workshop is aligned with the recruiting event of the SAGA
Network. SAGA is looking for promising candidates to fill its
available positions. SAGA aims at advancing the mathematical
foundations of CAD technology, which can be greatly enhanced by
exploiting new techniques from many different mathematical
fields such as Algebraic Geometry, Symbolic Computation,
Numerical Analysis,
Approximation Theory.
SAGA offers an environment of researchers from different areas
with a common vision, and tailor-made opportunities to learn geometric
modelling both from the industrial and the fundamental
mathematics perspective.
For in-depth information about the project, the consortium, and
research projects, candidates are invited to attend this meeting.
There is funding for travel and local expenses available for a limited
amount of candidates to be interviewed during the school, but anyone
interested is free to attend without having to commit to a position.
For general inquiries visit the SAGA web page at
http://www.saga-network.eu or contact the coordinator Tor Dokken
by email at tor.dokken@sintef.no
