AIM Research Conference Center:
--------------------------------

The American Institute of Mathematics (AIM) hosts focused
workshops in all areas of the mathematical sciences. AIM
focused workshops are distinguished by their emphasis on
a specific mathematical goal, such as making progress on a
significant unsolved problem, understanding the proof of an
important new result, or investigating the convergence between
two distinct areas of mathematics.
