Dear GAP forum, We are happy to announce the workshop GROUPS, ACTIONS, COMPUTATIONS 2010 followed by a conference (1 - 12 September, 2010) in HRI, Allahabad, India.
Please contact us to : gac2...@hri.res.in if you are interested to attend. regards, Siddhartha ###################################################################### This is to announce a combined workshop and conference `Groups, Actions, Computations' (GAC2010), at the Harish-Chandra Research Institute in Allahabad, India. from September 1st to September 12th, 2010, taking place under the auspices of the International Centre for Theoretical Sciences of the Tata Institute of Fundamental Research. We will address recent developments in finite group theory, with a definite emphasis on computational aspects: next to general techniques for matrix and permutation groups, we will discuss the classification of and computations with p-groups, give an introduction to simple groups and how to compute with them, and consider actions of finite groups on Riemann surfaces. In the workshop part we will have various introductory lecture series, which additionally will be accompanied by practical introductions to the computer algebra system GAP; amongst the speakers will be Max Neunhöffer (St.Andrews) and Eamonn O'Brien (Auckland). Subsequently, in the conference part recent research results will be presented by internationally renowned experts.
