Second Announcement

International Conference
on
Differential and Functional Differential Equations

Moscow, Russia, August 11-17, 2002

Moscow State Aviation Institute (MAI) with the cooperation of the Steklov Institute of Mathematics of the Russian Academy of Sciences, Moscow Mathematical Society, and Weierstrass Institute for Applied Analysis and Stochastics is organizing the International Conference on Differential and Functional Differential Equations, August 11-17, 2002. The scientific program will consist of invited 45-minute lectures, 30-minute lectures and 20-minute communications. This conference is a satellite conference of International Congress of Mathematicians in Beijing ICM-2002. In the frames of the conference the celebration of 80-th birthday of Professor M.I.Vishik will be made. The conference will be devoted to classical topics of the theory of differential equations and different kinds of nonlocal interactions: 

bifurcations, ordinary differential equations in a complex domain, analytic aspects of dynamical systems, spectral theory, partial differential equations in functional spaces, linear and nonlinear problems of mathematical physics, semigroups of operators, asymptotic methods, singularly perturbed systems, attractors of evolution equations, boundary value problems and nonlocal problems, functional differential equations and applications.

Official Languages:
Russian and English.

Call for papers:
The participants who want to present a paper at the conference are kindly asked to send a one page abstract in the form of a LATEX 2e file by e-mail. In order to accelerate processing of your file, please omit a preamble but send us only the text itself, i.e. the part of the LATEX file between the commands \begin{document} and \end{document}. The abstract should contain new results completely formulated in the form of theorems. The title has to be in capital letters followed by the name(s) and affiliation(s) of the author(s). The abstracts will be collected in a booklet to be distributed among the participants upon arrival. The deadline for receiving abstracts is May 1, 2002.

Registration:
The registration fee is $95 and should be paid upon arrival. The registration fee covers expenses on abstracts and program publishing, and mailing expenses.

Transportation:
The Organizing Committee will book minibuses to pick up foreign participants arriving to the Moscow International Airport Sheremetyevo-2. These buses will depart from the airport each 2-3 hours on August 10, 11. It is desirable to inform us about your flight number, airline, and arrival time in advance.

Accommodation:
Arrangements have been made for reservation at different hotels in Moscow. The prices are $30-40 for a single room and $50-60 for a double room per night. The Organizing Committee will arrange free transportation of the participants from the hotels to the Institute and back by bus.

Food service:
There are many canteens and snack-bars at the campus and in the neighborhood of the Institute. Lunch or dinner costs about $3-6. The above prices for meals and accommodation may change till August, 2002.  

Currency exchange:
There is a lot of exchange offices everywhere in Moscow, where you can exchange US dollars. Many of them belonging to large banks exchange also Euro, British pounds, and other currency.
