Dear Colleague,
Following a longstanding tradition, the Faculty of Mathematics and
Physics of Charles University in Prague will organize a
Spring School on Variational Analysis.
The School will be held at Paseky nad Jizerou, in a chalet
in the Krkonose Mountains, April 27 - May 3, 2003. The program will
consist of the following series of lectures:
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"
More details and the registration form can be found at the URL address

The conference fee will be EUR 350. A discount will be offered
provided that a letter guaranteeing participation reaches

Kindly inform your colleagues and students interested in this field.
We are looking forward meeting you in the Czech Republic.
