OVERVIEW
The main focus of the conference is to learn of the latest
developments in the area. The goal of the conference is to bring
together top researchers in number theory from Canada and abroad
in order to foster collaboration and to expose students to important
problems in this growing field. We expect that this conference will
establish and strengthen research ties among researchers in number
theory.
FORMAT
The tentative program is to have 12 speakers each give a one-hour
lecture. The lectures will be of a survey nature offering a state-of-the
art view of important topics in the field and related areas of
mathematics with applications to cryptography. The emphasis will
be placed on highlighting the main techniques in a given area
as well as outlining some of the important open problems in the
area. Each afternoon discussion period on these open problems
and/or contributed papers session will take place. The aim is
to expose and engage graduate students and established researchers
in active research to try to solve some of the proposed open problems.
