International Seminar 

About the seminar:

The 21st century is the century of interdisciplinary fields in mathematics and computer science.  Mathematical and computational logic, and their hybrid areas play crucial roles to shape several areas of scientific and non-scientific domains at present. The connections of analysis, algebra, topology, category theory, fuzzy set theory, rough set theory, graph theory, relativity, fluid dynamics, automata theory, dynamical systems, fixed-point theory, etc.  to mathematical and computational logic are already well-established. But, the culture of discussing recent developments in the areas of mathematical and computational logic and interdisciplinary areas is very rare in eastern countries in comparison to western countries of the world. Thus, the Department of Mathematics, Gauhati University has planned to organize  “International Seminar on Interdisciplinary Scopes of Mathematical and Computational Logic” (ISISMCL-2024). This seminar is focused on bringing several eminent experts together on a common platform to discuss recent developments in the areas of mathematical and computational logic, and their interdisciplinary applications in the above-mentioned areas.

*A few experts are yet to confirm and thus, the list will be updated.

**Interested registered participants will also be allowed to attend a few post-seminar talks of the expert Prof. M. K. Chakrabarty, to be delivered on 5th & 6th May, 2024 at the Department of Mathematics, Gauhati University. These talks will not be part of this seminar.

About the university:

Gauhati University is one of the premier institutions of higher education in Northeast India. It was established in 1948. Padma Bhushan awardee Prof. Krishna Kanta Handique, one of the great Sanskrit scholars, was the founder and first vice chancellor of Gauhati University. The university is situated in Jalukbari of Guwahati. The campus has a hillock on the southern side, and the Brahmaputra river flows on the northern side. Gauhati University is a NAAC A-Grade institution, and it has been securing top ranks in several national and international rankings.

About the department:

The Department of Mathematics was established in 1948. Initially, it was functioning on the premise of Cotton College (now Cotton University). Then, the department was shifted to its present site at Jalukbari in 1955–56. Prof. V.D. Thawani, a wrangler from Cambridge University, joined as HOD on invitation and built up the newly founded department of mathematics. Due to relentless efforts and dedication on the part of a galaxy of teachers the department has grown into a center of excellence for teaching and research in mathematics. At present, the department has thirteen permanent faculties. Algebra, mathematical analysis, functional analysis, summability theory, dynamical systems, fuzzy set theory, computational fluid dynamics, fluid mechanics, graph theory, relativity, topology, soft computing, etc. are the areas of research.
