Institute for Geometry and Physics Miami-Cinvestav-Campinas
Opening Conference — Miami, January 2012

Conference on Homological Mirror Symmetry – January 23-27, 2012
Conference dedicated to Fedor Bogomolov's 65th birthday – January 28-29, 2012

Organizers: Ludmil Katzarkov, Maxim Kontsevich, Elizabeth Gasparim, Isidoro Gitler, Ernesto Lupercio

These two events will be held at the University of Miami (Coral Gables, Florida), and will be followed a conference in Mexico during the first week of February 2012.


Venue information

Talks: The conference will be held in the University Center, Flamingo Ballroom C & D (2nd Floor). See the campus map for directions (the arrows show the path from the hotel); there's also a newer campus map.

Accommodation: Most participants will be staying at the Holiday Inn Coral Gables/University of Miami, located right next to the University of Miami campus. (You should have received information from Sylvia Bacallao, s.bacallao@math.miami.edu). The hotel address is: 1350 South Dixie Highway, Coral Gables FL 33146; phone: 1-305-667-5611.

Airport: Miami International Airport is about 7 miles from campus. The most convenient way to reach the hotel or the campus is to take a taxi. Invited participants: When booking flights, please keep in mind NSF and University of Miami rules. Only US-based airlines are permitted (more specifically your plane ticket mush be issued by a US air carrier and show US carrier flight numbers). Please keep all your original boarding passes since they will be needed for reimbursement.
