******************************************************************** *** Scottish Category Theory Seminar *** Second Meeting *** Friday 21st May 2010, 2-5.30pm *** University of Edinburgh, Scotland *** http://personal.cis.strath.ac.uk/~ng/sct.html ******************************************************************** We are pleased to announce the second meeting of the Scottish Category Theory Seminar, which is a forum for discussion of all aspects of category theory, be they straight category theory or applications to computer science or physics etc. We request offers for contributed talks at this meeting. Meetings are open, and all are welcome to attend. The second meeting will take place on Friday 21st May at the Informatics Forum, University of Edinburgh from 2-5.30pm. Refreshments will be available from 1pm. As at the first meeting, there will be two 1-hour invited talks. We also invite offers for two contributed half-hour talks. We intend the meeting to be attractive to mathematicians, computer scientists and physicists working in topics related to category theory. Accordingly, offers of talks that would interest a broad audience are particularly encouraged. Straight category theory talks, and talks on applications of category theory are also welcome. Please send offers of talks, preferably accompanied by a title and short abstract, to scotcats@cis.strath.ac.uk, by Friday 23rd April. We aim to have the final programme decided by Friday 30th April. This meeting will receive financial support from the Edinburgh Mathematical Society.
