Pacific
Rim Geometry Conferences
|
|
The first Pacific Rim
Geometric Analysis Conference was held in Hong Kong in December 1992. The
main purpose of the conference was to bring together researchers from Pacific
Rim countries that are interested in areas related to geometry. The
conference served as a mean to disseminate the most recent research
developments and to cultivate working relationships among its participants.
The success of the Hong Kong meeting garnered enthusiastic support in having
future Pacific Rim Conferences in a continuous and rotating basis. This
resulted in the next few Pacific Rim Geometry Conferences held in Singapore
(1994), Seoul (1996), Vancouver (1998), Sendai (2000), Hong Kong (2002), Shanghai
(2004), and Murramarang (2006), respectively. The coordinator of the
Pacific Rim Geometry Conferences welcomes suggestions and requests on future
meetings. The general format is that the host institution is responsible for
security of funding for the conference. Any institution located within the
broad definition of the Pacific Rim area is welcome to submit a request to
become a host. For inquiries on hosting a future conference, please send an
email to pli@math.uci.edu. The next site for the 9th Pacific Rim
Geometry Conference is at Taipei with the dates for the meeting to be
determined. |
