Conference in Honor of Arhangelskii: Brooklyn NY July 2003

Conference in Honor of Alexander Arhangelskii
Brooklyn College of the City University of New York
Brooklyn, NY, USA
June 29 - July 3, 2003

The conference is dedicated to Professor Alexander Arhangelskii (Ohio
University, Athens, Ohio) in connection with his 65th birthday. Professor
Arhangelskii is recognized world-wide as a mathematician and teacher
(please visit Sciencific Genealogical Tree on the conference website for a
complete list of Arhangelskii's PhD students). His scientific achievements
in General and Set-Theoretic Topology place him at a leading position in
the topological world. Professor Arhangelskii has solved very hard,
long-standing, problems, and developed new interesting and fascinating
notions and theories. He poses very beautiful problems that fascinate
topologists and attract new students to do research in Topology. One could
cover pages on counting all topics, notions, and theories introduced and
developed by Arhangelskii, and many of them have already become classical.
The contribution of Professor Arhangelskii to Topology, Mathematics in
general, and education of new generation of mathematicians is enormous and
deserves to be honored. His 65th birthday is a good opportunity to say
"Thanks".
