PROGRAM COMMITTEE:

S.Novikov (chair), V.Buchstaber (vice-chair), N.Dolbilin (vice-chair), Yu.Burago, F.Cohen, R.Connelly, A.Dress, H.Edelsbrunner, R.Erdahl, S.Godunov, P.Gruber, A.Yakovlev, A.Mischenko, O.Musin, Yu.Nesterenko, A.Parshin, Yu.Reshetnyak, M.Senechal, M.Shtogrin, K.Sugihara, M.Tanemura, B.Venkov, G.Ziegler.

ORGANIZING COMMITTEE:

V.Kozlov (chair), A.Sergeev (vice-chair), V. Chubarikov (vice-chair), A.Garber (secretary), F.Damian, N.Dolbilin, A.Gaifullin, S.Konovalov, V.Makarov, A.Maltsev, D.Millionschikov, T.Panov, M. Shtogrin.

Invited talks (plenary and section ones) of the Conference will present modern problems, current state, and latest progress in areas related to main subjects of the conference and to Delone's mathematical activity.

MAIN SUBJECTS: Topology and discrete geometry; Algebra and Number theory; Applications: Delone triangulations, Crystallography etc.

SECTIONS: Geometry, Topology, Algebra and Number theory, Applications.

A tentative program will consist of two (a day) 1-hour-long plenary invited talks, two (a day) 45-min.-long section invited talks and several 30-min.-long section talks.

Our Conference will overlap in part with another Conference dedicated to an outstanding geometer Nikolai Efimov. It will be held at Moscow State University on August 18-21. Bearing in mind that Boris Delone and Nikolai Efimov had very friendly relations,  and also some participants are going to take part in both conferences, the two conferences will tentatively run in one joint memorial session.
