Practical matters

The conference will take place at the Centre for Mathematical Sciences (CMS) on Wilberfore Road. The closest airport to Cambridge is Stansted. Regular trains run from Stansted and also from King's Cross/St Pancras (for transfer from the Eurostar service from Paris) to Cambridge. The U bus runs a regular service from Cambridge railway station to Storey's Way (just outside the CMS). A map can be found here.
Here are some suggestions for accommodation in Cambridge within walking distance from CMS.



The conference is organized in partnership with the Clay Mathematics Institute. We are also very grateful to the London Mathematical Society and the Heilbronn Institute for Mathematical Research for financial support.
