End Report

For the past two years, 49 mathematicians from 13 countries have been invited to CAS. They have been working om Lie theory, algebra/algebraic geometry, analytical diversity, singularity theory, differential geometry, K-theory, differential equations, operational algebra, applied mathematics, and theoretical physics. In all, 38 papers have been written and published in the Preprint Series. More book projects are nearly finished.

Om a professional level, Norwegian mathematicians have gained new insights. By inviting visiting scholars, the projects have strengthened existing collaboration and began new collaborative work with several different fields. With funding from UD, we have been able to invite 15 Russian and Belarusian mathematician to the Centre. In the wake of this, we have organised several summer school programs in Lie theory in Nordfjordeid, with high international participation.

As the finances of the Centre has been somewhat restrictive, budgeting has not been an easy task. It has been hard to plan for the project’s financial security into the future. The project have been dependent on additional funds.

Nevertheless, the working environment at CAS has been great, and all participants have, without exception, been happy with the material conditions and the personal. Unn Hagen’s dedication to her work, helping all participants with travels, visa, housing and everything big and small, have been greatly appreciated, and have been crucial for the organisation of our project.
