Conference Charles Ehresmann: 100 ans

[Andree Ehresmann]

Conference and papers for Charles Ehresmann's centenary

I recall that we organize an International Conference "Charles Ehresmann
100 ans" to commemorate the 100th anniversary of Charles' birth. It will
take place at the Universite de Picardie Jules Verne in Amiens, from
October 7 to 9, 2005. The first day will consist in general lectures on
the life and works of Charles, and their prolongations. The 2 other days,
there will be 2 parallel sessions:

    Category theory, Topology and Geometry, including the 82nd session of
the PSSL "Peripatetic Seminar on Sheaves and Logic" and a session of the
SIC (Seminaire Itinerant de Categories),

    Multidisciplinary applications with a Symposium ECHO V.

The complete program can be found on the Internet site dedicated to
Charles:

which also contains some photos and documents on Charles, and papers dedicated
to him.
The abstracts of the lectures presented to the Conference will appear in Volume
XLVI-3 of the "Cahiers de Topologie et Geometrie Differentielle Categoriques".
The participation to the Conference is free. If you want to participate, please
