MEGA 2005

Effective Methods in Algebraic Geometry

Computing in and with algebraic geometry:
Theory, Algorithms, Implementations, Applications.





The Conference MEGA 2005 was held at Hotel Corte Rosada, a sea resort at Porto Conte, Alghero, Sardinia (Italy) from Friday, May 27th to Wednesday, June 1st, 2005.

MEGA is the acronym for Effective Methods in Algebraic Geometry (and its equivalent in Italian, French, Spanish, German, Russian, etc.), a series of roughly biennial conferences on computational and application aspects of Algebraic Geometry and related topics with very high standards. Previous meetings were held in 1990 (Castiglioncello, Italy), 1992 (Nice, France), 1994 (Santander, Spain), 1996 (Eindhoven, Nederlands), 1998 (St. Malo, France) 2000 (Bath, United Kingdom) and  2003 (Kaiserslautern, Germany).

Proceedings containing a selection of the papers and invited talks presented at previous Mega conferences have been published by Birkhäuser in the series Progress in Mathematics (volumes no. 94, 109 and 143), by the Journal of Pure and Applied Algebra (volumes no. 117 and 118, 139 and 164) and by the Journal of Symbolic Computation (to appear). We plan to publish selected papers from the conference in a special issue of the Journal of Symbolic Computation.

Conference Topics


Effective Methods and Theoretical and Practical Complexity Issues in: Commutative Algebra, Geometry, Real Geometry, Algebraic Number Theory, Algebraic Geometry and related fields: Algebraic Analysis of Differential Equations, Differential Geometry, Associative Algebras, Group Theory, Algebraic Groups and Lie Algebras, Algebraic and Differential Topology, as well as applications of these fields.
