This period will include some social events, including a tour of the world famous Cappadocia region, with its fairy chimneys, churches calved from the living rock, secret valleys and underground cities. Topics of interest at the conference include, but are not limited to: Asymmetric Topology (non-Hausdorff separation, order, bitopology, quasi-metrics, quasi-uniformities) Symmetric Topology (application oriented aspects of general topology more rooted in classical analysis, topological groups, uniformities, etc.) Point-free, Constructive or Categorical Aspects (frame/locale theory, domain theory, formal topology, categorical methods) Topology on Lattices (fuzzy topology, texture spaces, generalisations) Digital Topology (discretisation versus continuity, finite T_0 spaces) Applications (to algebra, analysis, computer science, logic, etc.) The conference will feature Keynote Lectures on the main themes of the conference, Contributed Talks by the participants, Problem Sessions and opportunities for informal contacts between Turkish research students and experts in their areas of interest. Arrangements regarding accommodation and meals will be announced later. Further information may be obtained from the conference homepage at www.mat.hacettepe.edu.tr/topconf/main.html This page includes a small form which we urge you to complete if you would like to make sure of receiving future announcements. Alternatively, please reply to topconf@hacettepe.edu.tr now, expressing your interest. In any case we very much hope to see you in Ankara. Sincerely yours, Lawrence M.
