Brualdi SUBJECT: Madison Linear Algebra Meeting/Van Vleck Celebration -------------------------------------------------- ************************************************************************* Madison Linear Algebra Meeting/Van Vleck Celebration The third SIAM Conference on Applied Linear Algebra will take place in Madison, Wisconsin on May 23-26, 1988. It will be preceded on Sunday, May 22,1988 by a short course on Linear Algebra in Statistics given by Ingram Olkin, George P. H. Styan and Douglas Bates. There have now been scheduled over 200 talks, which includes 8 invited talks, 54 talks in minisymposia, and about 140 contributed talks. It should be a super meeting. A preliminary program for the conference can be obtained by writing to SIAM at 1405 Architects Building, 117 South 17th Street, Philadelphia, PA 19103 USA. The final program will be available at the conference. On May 19-21, 1988 right before the conference, the Mathematics Department of the University of Wisconsin will be celebrating the 25th anniversary of the opening of Van Vleck Hall which houses the Mathematics Department. On Saturday afternoon, May 21, of the celebration a miniconference entitled "Matrix and Combinatorial Theory-25 years at Van Vleck" is being organized by Richard A. Brualdi and Hans Schneider. They have invited all their former students and colleagues of matrix and combinatorial theory to participate and speak. However everyone is invited to attend the miniconference. Those atttending the SIAM conference might wish to take advantage of this opportunity while at the same time taking advantage of reduced airfares for staying over a Saturday night. For more information contact Richard A. Brualdi(brualdi@vanvleck.math.edu) or Hans Schneider(hs@vanvleck.math.wisc.edu). ************************************************************************* Reposted by -- Kenneth R.
