Monograph Proposals
The Clay Mathematics Institute solicits manuscripts for its monograph series, published jointly with the AMS. The series publishes selected expositions of recent developments, both in emerging areas and in older subjects transformed by new insights or unifying ideas. If you are interested in submitting a manuscript, please send your project description and a draft section of the proposed manuscript (if available) to Jim Carlson, managing editor, through Vida Salahi (salahi at claymath dot org).
The Poincaré Conjecture: work of Grigory Perelman
Grigory Perelman was awarded a Fields Medal at the Madrid meeting on the International Congress of Mathematicians for "his contributions to geometry and his revolutionary insights into the analytical and geometric structure of the Ricci flow." A number of authors have written detailed expositions of Perelman's work. These papers, as well as other references, are listed here.
Birch & Swinnerton - Dyer Conjecture
Supported by much experimental evidence, this conjecture relates the number of points on an elliptic curve mod p to the rank of the group of rational points. Elliptic curves, defined by cubic equations in two variables, are fundamental mathematical objects that arise in many areas: Wiles' proof of the Fermat Conjecture, factorization of numbers into primes, and cryptography, to name three.
Workshops at CMI
CMI plans to hold four to six small Workshops each year at its offices at One Bow Street, Cambridge, Massachusetts. These will be of three to six days duration. For more information or to make a proposal, please contact Jim Carlson through his executive assistant Alagi Patel (patel at claymath dot org, 617-995-2600).
