The Pacific Rim Conference in Mathematics meets every three or four years and offers a venue for the presentation to, and discussion among, a wide audience of the latest trends in mathematical research. With funding support from the Department of Mathematics at U.C. Berkeley, the Eighth Pacific Rim Conference will be held online from Monday, 3rd August to Tuesday, 11th August. Its ten sessions will cover a very broad span of exciting developments in contemporary mathematics.
The conference’s plenary addresses will be given by:
- Richard Bamler, U.C. Berkeley.
- F. Michael Christ, U.C. Berkeley.
- Simon Donaldson, Imperial College, London.
- Yihong Du, University of New England, Australia.
