RELATED SEMINARS
AND GEOMETRY DAY
Seminars and discussions related to computers and geometry will take place during the period 20 January - 27 January 2003, including a conference on differential geometry "Differential Geometry of Minimal Submanifolds and Harmonic Maps" on 27 January.
SEMINARS 20-22 JANUARY 2003
All seminars will be held at the Mathematics Department of Tokyo Metropolitan University (6th floor, Faculty of Science Building).
