1. General Information

1.1 Introduction

The Ukrainian Mathematical Society, the Institute of Mathematics Nat. Acad. Sci. Ukraine, the T.Shevchenko National University, M.Dragomanov National Pedagogical University, and the M.Gogol Nizhyn State Pedagogical Institute take the pleasure in inviting you to the Second Voronoi Conference on Analytic Number Theory and Space Tilings to be held in Kyiv from 7th to 14th September 1998.

The Conference will be held in honor of the eminent Ukrainian Mathematician George Voronoi (1868-1908) who was born in Zhuravka, a small village a 160 km east of Kyiv. The Conference will take place at the University of Kyiv. The organizing committee will make all efforts to offer you an enjoyable stay.
