Workshop on the Complexity of Multivariate Problems

October 4-8, 1999

Hong Kong, China

Mathematics

Host: Hong Kong Baptist University
Sponsor: Hong Kong Baptist University; City University of Hong Kong; Epson Foundation; K. C. Wong Education Foundation

Organizers: Fred Hickernell and Henryk Wozniakowski

Deadline for abstracts: April 01, 1999

Description:
Many practical problems involve more than one variable. Such problems have been studied by computer scientists, mathematicians and statisticians, with each discipline contributing a different, but important perspective. The purpose of this workshop is to bring together experts in various fields to discuss the computational complexity of multivariate problems. The Workshop will focus on the following problems:

integration and approximation, average-case and worst-case analyses, the problem of high dimensionality, and generation of low discrepancy sets and sequences.

Speakers: Kai-Tai Fang (Hong Kong Baptist University), Stefan Heinrich (University of Kaiserslautern), Fred Hickernell (Hong Kong Baptist University), Harald Niederreiter (Austrian Academy of Sciences), Erich Novak (Universitat Erlangen-Nurnberg), Art Owen (Stanford University), Ian Sloan (University of New South Wales), Shu Tezuka (IBM Corp., Tokyo), Ren-Hong Wang (Dalian University of Technology), Grzegorz Wasilkowski (University of Kentucky), Henryk Wozniakowski (Columbia University & University of Warsaw)
