The Cape Verde International Days on Mathematics 2024
Praia, Cabo Verde, September 2-6, 2024
Welcome to the 5th Cape Verde International Days on Mathematics, CVIM'2024.
The conference is dedicated to Professor Delfim F. M. Torres and Professor Gastão S. F. Frederico for their role in the creation of this conference series, and to Professor Paulino Fortes on the occasion of his sixtieth birthday.
Delfim and Gastão at UniCV in the year 2012, planning the organization of the 1st CVIM. CVIM'2013 was successfully held in Praia, hosted at UniCV's Rector building.
Paulino was Rector of UniCV in the period 2011-2014 and fully supported the idea to organize CVIM, the 1st International Conference of Mathematics in Cabo Verde.
The Cape Verde International Days on Mathematics 2024 (CVIM'2024) will take place at University of Cabo Verde, in the new university campus (zona K, Palmarejo Grande, Praia), from September 2nd to 6th 2024. The conference is the fifth in the conference series "The Cape Verde International Days on Mathematics" organized by the University of Cabo Verde, Cabo Verde, and the University of Aveiro, Portugal. The previous meetings were CVIM'2013, CVIM'2015, CVIM'2017 and CVIM'2021.
The official language of the conference is English.

Cabo Verde comprises ten islands and is located 600 kilometers off the coast of Senegal. The islands vary in geographical characteristics. Sal, Boavista, Maio, and São Vicente are flat and desert-like, with stretches of sand dunes. Santiago, Santo Antão, Fogo, and São Nicolau are more mountainous and arable, although all the islands have a long history of drought. They are all of volcanic origin; Fogo, the only volcano still active, last erupted in 2014. The capital, Praia, is on the island of Santiago which is the largest in terms of area and population and the first one to be settled.

Cabo Verde’s climate is pleasantly tropical with year round average temperatures between 26° and 30° C, uninterrupted sunshine from November to May and a rainy season between the months of June and October, when sudden but spectacular rainstorms can punctuate the hot sun.
This conference is part of the research activities of the Systems and Control Group of CIDMA (https://cidma.ua.pt) and has the support of FCT (Foundation for Science and Technology), ref UIDB/04106/2020 (https://doi.org/10.54499/UIDB/04106/2020).
