Abstracts / Talks: | Details, please, by 30 June or preferably
earlier. Please use the abstract submission facility on the topology atlas at http://at.yorku.ca/cgi-bin/amca/submit/cadg-01. Abstracts can then be viewed at http://at.yorku.ca/cgi-bin/amca/cadg-01. If you experience any problems regarding submission of abstracts please e-mail one of the organisers. |

General Information
Queens University is spread roughly within a quarter mile radius of the main site (Lanyon building) found on University Road, about one mile south of the city centre. The David Bates Building (no.10 on the QUB map) is located at the rear of the main university building at the entrance to the Botanical Gardens. The Pure Mathematics Department is located on the 1st floor the departmental office is room 1005. A card phone is available in the lobby and the all important coke machine is on the 1st floor right next to the conference lecture theatre (room 1022). The Common Room (no.32 on the QUB map), where most people will be staying, is entered via College Gardens.
