    In the last few years there has been a surge in research activity dedicated towards obtaining further explicit evidence for Stark's Conjecture, and in formulating and investigating natural variants, refinements or generalizations thereof. By bringing together the leading exponents of these different strands of research this conference aims to improve understanding of the links between them. In addition, the conference program will include a series of survey talks aimed at making accessible to as wide an audience as possible the main aspects of recent research into Stark's Conjecture. At this time, confirmed main speakers include.

    Open problems and conjectures concerning the determination of properties offamilies of graphs. However, there are several conjectures, open questions,
    http://www.eecs.umich.edu/~qstout/constantques.html
    Some Open Problems and Conjectures
    These problems and conjectures concern the determination of properties of families of graphs. For example, one property of a graph is its domination number. For a graph G , a set S of vertices is a dominating set if every vertex of G is in S or adjacent to a member of S . The domination number of G is the minimum size of a dominating set of G . Determining the domination number of a graph is an NP-complete problem, but can often be done for many graphs encountered in practice. One topic of some interest has been to determine the dominating numbers of grid graphs (meshes), which are just graphs of the form P(n) x P(m) , where P(n) is the path of n vertices. Marilynn Livingston and I showed that for any graph G , the domination number of the family G x P(n) has a closed formula (as a function of n ), which can be found computationally. This appears in M.L. Livingston and Q.F. Stout, ``Constant time computation of minimum dominating sets'', Congresses Numerantium (1994), pp. 116-128.

    Conjectures in Geometry
    An educational web site created for high school geometry students
    by
    Jodi Crane, Linda Stevens, and Dave Wiggins
    Introduction:
    This site constitutes our final project for Math 5337-Computational Methods in Elementary Geometry , taken at the University of Minnesota's Geometry Center during Winter of 1996. This course could be entitled "Technology in the Geometry Classroom" as one of its more important objectives is to provide students (presumably math educators) with a wide variety of activities (demonstrations and assignments) utilizing computer software that could be incorporated into a high school geometry classroom. This page has been designed to provide an interactive technological resource for students studying elementary high school geometry. Basic concepts, conjectures, and theorems found in typical geometry texts are introduced, explained, and investigated. Follow-up activities are provided to further demonstrate meanings and applications of concepts. The objective is to ensure that students develop a firm understanding of both the content and applications of each main idea given below in the list of conjectures. Working towards this objective, we have included:

    http://www.geom.uiuc.edu/~dwiggins/conj22.html
    Parallelogram Conjectures
    Explanation:
    A parallelogram is a quadrilateral with two pairs of parallel sides. If we extend the sides of the parallelogram in both directions, we now have two parallel lines cut by two parallel transversals. The parallel line conjectures will help us to understand that the opposite angles in a parallelogram are equal in measure. When two parallel lines are cut by a transversal corresponding angles are equal in measure. Also, the vertical angles are equal in measure. Now we need to extend our knowledge to two parallel lines cut by two parallel transversals. We have new pairs of corresponding angles What can be said about the adjacent angles of a parallelogram. Again the parallel line conjectures and linear pairs conjecture can help us. The measures of the adjacent angles of a parallelogram add up to be 180 degrees, or they are supplementary.
    The precise statement of the conjectures are:
    Conjecture ( Parallelogram Conjecture I Opposite angles in a parallelogram are congruent. Conjecture ( Parallelogram Conjecture II Adjacent angles in a parallelogram are supplementary.

    ANTHONY TROLLOPE When I received the list of participants in this course and realized that I had been asked to speak to philosophical colleagues I thought, after some hesitation and consultation, that you would probably prefer me to speak about those problems which interest me most, and about those developments with which I am most intimately acquainted. I therefore decided to do what I have never done before: to give you a report on my own work in the philosophy of science, since the autumn of1919 when I first began to grapple with the problem, "When should a theory be ranked as scientific?" or "Is there a criterion for the scientific character or status of a theory?" The problem which troubled me at the time was neither, "When is a theory true?"nor, "When is a theory acceptable?" My problem was different. I wished to distinguish between science and pseudo-science;

    Goldbach's Conjecture: Every even n
    Goldbach wrote a letter to Euler in 1742 suggesting that . Euler replied that this is equivalent to this is now know as Goldbach's conjecture. Schnizel showed that Goldbach's conjecture is equivalent to distinct primes
    It has been proven that every even integer is the sum of at most six primes [ ] (Goldbach's conjecture suggests two) and in 1966 Chen proved every sufficiently large even integers is the sum of a prime plus a number with no more than two prime factors (a P ). In 1993 Sinisalo verified Goldbach's conjecture for all integers less than 4 ]. More recently Jean-Marc Deshouillers, Yannick Saouter and Herman te Riele have verified this up to 10 with the help, of a Cray C90 and various workstations. In July 1998, Joerg Richstein completed a verification to 4

    Familles p-adiques de formes automorphes et applications aux conjectures de Bloch-Kato
    J. Bellaïche
    Abstract:
    This work is a contribution to the study of p-adic deformations of automorphic forms. In the first part, we construct p-adic families of finite slope eigenforms for unitary groups G/Q such that G(R) is the compact unitary group and G(Qp)=GLn(Qp). As a consequence, we obtain p-adic refined deformations of the Galois representations studied by Clozel, Kottwitz and Harris-Taylor. In a second part, we show that the Jaquet-Langlands correspondence between usual and quaternionic modular forms extends to a rigid-analytic isomorphism between some eigencurves. In the last part, in collaboration with J.Bellaïche , we apply the results of the first chapter to some non tempered endoscopic forms for U(3) studied by Rogawski, in order to construct extensions between some Galois characters which are predicted by Bloch-Kato conjectures.
