100 years Trinity Mathematical Society

23-24 Feb 2019
Cambridge, England

Dear everyone,

A special message from the TMS.

This year marks the 100th Anniversary of the Trinity Mathematical Society. To 
celebrate this special occasion, the TMS is hosting two significant even ts - 
the TMS Centenary Symposium and TMS Centenary Dinner. Further informat ion on 
the Symposium now available below. Please also visit our event website: 
http://tms100.uk<http://tms100.uk/> for further details.

TMS Centenary Symposium

The TMS Symposium is a day of lectures, held in the Winstanley Lecture Theatre, 
about a wide array of mathematical subjects. However, this year the Symposium 
will be split over 2 days on the weekend of the 23rd-24th February.

Day 1 will be dedicated to the history of the TMS, with 10 distinguished sp 
eakers, representing or talking about each decade of the TMS. Day 2 will be for 
current members of the society to talk about their research and contribution to 
mathematics.

We are now pleased to share a provisional timetable for the TMS Centenary 
Symposium speakers on Day 1. Final details will be confirmed nearer the time.
