Participants
Accommodation
Participants will be lodged at the Mathematical Research and Conference Center of the Mathematical Institute of the Polish Academy of Sciences. You will find there completely equipped conference halls and Internet connection (computers and wireless connection), a 19th century palace, new hotel, and large park at your disposal.
Fees and support
The conference fee will amount 1200 PLN (standard price and the price for accompanying persons) paid upon the arrival in Będlewo. We will accept also payments in Euro which will amount 330 EUR paid preferably also upon the arrival or (in individual cases) on the account of the Institute of Mathematics, Polish Academy of Sciences:
KOS SWIFTH BPHKPLPK
PL 11 1060 0076 0000 3210 0010 6203
Reduced fees have been offered individually due to the decisions of the Organizing and Scientific Committees. The fee will cover the accommodation, living expenses, conference materials, bonfire, conference dinner, and excursion. No travel refunds are possible. We would prefer to collect the fees in Polish Zlotys. There is no problem to exchange any currency in banks or Kantors. We would also like to draw your attention that, comparing to the Workshop in 2004, Euro (EUR) got weaker with respect to Polish Zloty (PLN) that caused the slight changes in the costs of our conference calculated in EUR. Now, the rate is about 1 EUR= 3.75 PLN.Travel
Będlewo is a small village located ca 30 km to the south from Poznań. Detailed information on how to get there - complete with maps and train timetables - can be found at http://www.impan.gov.pl/EN/Bedlewo/index.html.
Additional information
A bus to Olomouc will be organized that can carry persons that have expressed their willing to use it ang go to the conference DIFFERENTIAL GEOMETRY AND ITS APPLICATIONS in Olomouc, Czech Republic, just after the XXIInd Workshop.
