[cmath] Workshop in Number Theory, Ottawa June 8-10

[Jessica St-James]

Last announcement for the workshop:

*Number theory with a view toward Transcendence and Diophantine 
Approximation*
www.fields.utoronto.ca/programs/scientific/12-13/numbertheory13

*Sponsors:* The Fields Institute for Research in Mathematical Sciences 
and the University of Ottawa

*Location and dat*e: University of Ottawa, June 8--10, 2013

*Abstract:* Michel Waldschmidt, a pioneer of Transcendental Number 
Theory, will receive an honorary doctorate from the University of Ottawa 
on June 11, 2013. This three-day workshop celebrates Michel 
Waldschmidt's work, gathering number theory researchers from the 
Montreal-Toronto area. Some emphasis will be given to Diophantine 
approximation, but many other areas of number theory will be 
represented, ranging from algebraic to analytic number theory.

*Invited speakers:*
Henri Darmon (McGill), Edward Dobrowolski (UNBC), John Friedlander 
(Toronto),
Jing-Jing Huang (Toronto), Hershy Kisilevsky (Concordia), Claude 
Levesque (Laval),
Ján Minác (Western),  Kumar Murty (Toronto), Ram Murty (Queen's), Damien 
Roy (Ottawa),
Cam Stewart (Waterloo), Alain S. Togbé (Purdue), Gary Walsh (CSE and Ottawa)
Michel Waldschmidt (Paris VI)

*Accommodation:* A block of Signatures suites has been reserved at the 
Business Inn at a very advantageous rate, until May 20.  A block of 
rooms has also been reserved at the University residences until May 20.  
For details, see the web site of the workshop.

Financial support is available for graduate students and postdoctoral 
fellows: the deadline for applying is May 19.
