Fields symposium to honor Prof Ngo Bao Chau
A symposium dubbed ‘Fundamentals of the Langlands Program’ in honor of famous Vietnamese professor Ngo Bao Chau, will be held by Fields Institute in Toronto Canada from October 15-18.
The Symposium will focus on Prof. Chau’s project and its dramatic impact.
The goal is to bring the general area of automorphic forms and the Langlands Program to a broader audience and, in addition, to present recent developments in the area that are related to his work.
The scientific program is aimed at a wide audience, including graduate students, mathematicians in other areas of research, and scientists for whom mathematics is an important part of their work.
The Symposium will feature a public opening with Ingrid Daubechies, President of the International Mathematical Union and Le Sy Vuong Ha, Vietnamese Ambassador to Canada.
There will be public lectures by other outstanding mathematicians, such as James Arthur, Gerard Laumon, Edward Frenkel, Richard Taylor, Edward Witten, Diana Shelstad, Laurent Lafforgue and Nigel Hitchin.
