TOPIC: It is the aim of this conference to discuss categorical topological methods that are likely to be mathematically important in the next century. Furthermore, on Thursday afternoon resp. evening, we shall celebrate the seventieth birthday of Professor Heinrich Kleisli (Fribourg). Those interested in attending only the birthday celebration or the following banquet should not forget to register, too; see below. Of course, they need not pay the registration fee. Titles of the eight invited two hour lectures: A. ARHANGEL'SKII (Moscow, Russia): Topological and paratopological groups and homogeneous spaces. M. BARR (Montreal, Canada): The *-autonomous category of Mackey spaces. MARIA M. CLEMENTINO (Coimbra, Portugal): Closure operators. KATHRYN P. HESS (Lausanne, Switzerland): Model categories in algebraic topology. R. LOWEN (Antwerp, Belgium): Approach spaces. HILARY A. PRIESTLEY (Oxford, England): Duality theory. D. PUMPLUEN (Hagen, Germany): Convex sets and Saks spaces (A paradigmatic case of applied category theory). S. WATSON (York, Canada): How to construct counterexamples in general and set-theoretic topology usefully with pullbacks. SHORT COMMUNICATIONS: Persons interested in giving a short communication are kindly asked to send a one page abstract of their talk by ordinary (air)mail to Prof. Heinrich Kleisli, Department of Mathematics, University of Fribourg, 1700 Fribourg, Switzerland, before April 20, 2000. Please note that the programme of the congress consists of the afore-mentioned 8 invited lectures (of 2 times 50 minutes each) and short communications (of 20 minutes each). Each participant who wishes to give a short communication will be informed by May 1, 2000, whether his or her talk is part of the final programme of the congress. PROCEEDINGS: In connection with the conference CATOP2000 a special volume of the Journal Applied Categorical Structures (www.wkap.nl/journalhome.htm/0927-2852; guest editor Hans-Peter Kuenzi) is to be published, which will be dedicated to Professor Heinrich Kleisli on the occasion of his seventieth birthday. Those who would like to submit a paper, should contact hans-peter.kuenzi@math-stat.unibe.ch as soon as possible. ACCOMMODATION: The hotels (and student residences) are located near the railway station. The prices are as follows (breakfast included): Single room: 90 sFr. up, Double room: 140 sFr. up. Student residence: Single room (~45 sFr.) Double room (~35 sFr./pers.) TRAVELLING TO FRIBOURG: Intercity trains connect Fribourg with the international airports of Geneva and Zurich. Talks will take place in the Chemistry Building, Perolles-site of the University of Fribourg, close to the centre of the town. There is a bus from the railway station to Perolles, bus-stop Charmettes, where you face the buildings of the Perolles-site of the University. Further information about the congress (e.g. campus and town maps) can be obtained via its homepage: www.unifr.ch/math/catop2000 REGISTRATION: A participation fee of 100 sFr. (Swiss francs) will be paid by each participant. The participation of the Thursday afternoon lectures is free. The ticket for the (optional) banquet on Thursday night costs additional 80 sFr.
