Workshop Announcement: ---------------------------------------------------------------- Tensor decompositions ---------------------------------------------------------------- July 19 to July 23, 2004 American Institute of Mathematics Research Conference Center Palo Alto, California http://aimath.org/ARCC/workshops/tensordecomp.html ------------ Description: ------------ This workshop, sponsored by AIM and the NSF, will consider mathematical problems of tensor decomposition. Though higher-order tensor (also known as multidimensional, multi-way, or n-way array) decompositions have been around for more than three decades, the door is now opening on greater mathematical understanding and new applications. This workshop will bring together specialists in scientific computing, linear algebra, and applications, with a goal of developing the theoretical and computational tools necessary to tackle larger problems and new applications. The workshop is organized by Gene H. Golub, Tamara G. Kolda, James G. Nagy, and Charles F. Van Loan. For more details please see the workshop announcement page: http://aimath.org/ARCC/workshops/tensordecomp.html Space and funding is available for a few more participants. If you would like to participate, please apply by filling out the on-line form (available at the link above) no later than April 19, 2004. Applications are open to all, and we especially encourage women, underrepresented minorities, junior mathematicians, and researchers from primarily undergraduate institutions to apply. Before submitting an application, please read the ARCC policies concerning participation and financial support for participants. -------------------------------------- AIM Research Conference Center (ARCC): -------------------------------------- The AIM Research Conference Center (ARCC) will hosts focused workshops in all areas of the mathematical sciences. ARCC 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.
