First Announcement

Dear Colleague,

Alexander Ioffe (Technion University, Haifa, Israel): "Variational Analysis in Metric Spaces"

Adrian Lewis (Simon Fraser University, Burnaby, Canada): "Eigenvalue Optimization and Non-Smooth Analysis"

Boris S. Mordukhovich (Wayne State University, Detroit, USA): "Sequential Variational Analysis in Infinite Dimensions"

Jean-Paul Penot (University of Pau, Pau, France) "Analysis of Value Functions"
