On the Trails of Mathematics:

Cecylia Krieger-Dunaj and Her successors

Będlewo, 08.11.2024-11.11.2024

The conference will be the fourth in the series "On the Trails of Mathematics" which is one of the main activities of the association Polish Women in Mathematics (see the conference websites: https://konferencja.ptkwm.pl/ (2017), https://skwm.ptkwm.pl/ (2019), http://otowim22.ptkwm.pl/ (2022)).

The purpose of our conferences is to help promote the scientific achievements and merits of women whose research, professional activity and publications have made significant contribution to the development of science, mainly in mathematics and related fields. Of course, we are not limiting the conference to women participants only, as we have gender equality in mind and we would like to promote equal opportunity and equal treatment of women in the mathematical sciences.

This conference will be intended to honour the Polish mathematician – Cecylia Krieger-Dunaj and her successors in particular two women from Poland: Izabela Łaba and Nicole Tomczak-Jaegermann. All three are among the top scientists in the world in their fields of research, honoured with numerous awards by international scientific organizations. These women, through their achievements and outstanding contributions to the development of world science, can serve as so-called "Role Models" for all young scientists – not only for women, but also for men. 

Plenary speakers: Izabela Łaba (University of British Columbia) and Peter Pivovarov (University of Missouri, student of Nicole Tomczak-Jaegermann).

Invited speakers: Malabika Pramanik, Bunyamin Sari, Jan Rychtar, Anna Lytova, Piotr Bartłomiejczyk .
