Conference on Topology and its Applications
in Honor of Alexander Arhangelskii

(aka Shura)

The conference is dedicated to Professor Alexander Arhangelskii (Ohio University, Athens, Ohio) in connection with his 65th birthday. Professor Arhangelskii is recognized world-wide as a mathematician and teacher (please visit Sciencific Genealogical Tree for a complete list of Arhangelskii's PhD students). His scientific achievements in General and Set-Theoretic Topology place him at a leading position in the topological world. Professor Arhangelskii has solved very hard, long-standing, problems, and developed new interesting and fascinating notions and theories. He poses very beautiful problems that fascinate topologists and attract new students to do research in Topology. One could cover pages on counting all topics, notions, and theories introduced and developed by Arhangelskii, and many of them have already become classical. The contribution of Professor Arhangelskii to Topology, Mathematics in general, and education of new generation of mathematicians is enormous and deserves to be honored. His 65th birthday is a good opportunity to say "Thanks".

When & Where: The conference will be hosted in Brooklyn College of the City University of New York on June 29--July 3, 2003. Talks in any area of Topology are welcome. The conference starts on June 29, Sunday. The last day of the conference is July 3. Registration begins at 12:30 pm on Sunday. Talks starts at 2:00 pm with a welcome speach from the Chairman of Mathematics Department. On the first and last days talks are scheduled to run in one session. The other three days talks are scheduled in two parallel sessions. The first day we have only afternoon talks and on the last day only morning talks leaving time for sightseeing. On the first day we have a welcome pizza party at the end (starts at 5:30 pm). On July 2, we have a dinner party that starts at 5:30pm. Note that originally the dinner party was planned on the last day, but we have moved it to July 2 for various important considerations.
