Mathematical Visitors to New Zealand

author List 45: 1 November 1996

The main purpose of this list is to enable other institutions to invite visitors to spend time with them. Anyone wishing to issue such an invitation should do so through the principal contact person.

The information for each item is arranged as follows:

Name of visitor; home institution; whether accompanied; principal field of interest; dates of visit; principal host institution; principal contact person; comments.

An up-to-date version of this list is maintained available on the Worldwide Web, at the URL http://www.math.auckland.ac.nz/~mcintyre/Visitors

This site also contains a form for convenient submission of information about forthcoming visitors.
