The Conference is a big event in the special semester on Commutative Algebra 2013 at VIASM and Institute of Mathematics – VAST. It aims to present recent developments in Commutative Algebra and its interaction in Algebraic Geometry and Combinatorics. There will be also discussion on how to promote mathematics in Vietnam.
The Conference is also an event to celebrate Prof. Ngo Viet Trung’s 60th birthday, who is former Director of Institute of Mathematics – VAST.
There are 9 plenary talks and 55 session talks during the 5-day Conference. (for more information about the talks, please visit:http://vie.math.ac.vn/CA-2013)
There are more than 100 participants from different institutes and universities in Vietnam and over the world. Among them there are 63 foreign mathematicians and Vietnamese mathematicians working overseas.
