Report of C18 to the Council
October 15-16, 2004-10-21

The flagship conference of c18 (type A) is the International Congress in Mathematical Physics. The last such congress took place in Lisbon in summer of 2003 and was well attended by scientists from Europe, developing countries, the Americas and Asia. The local organizer was Prof. Zambrini of Lisbon and there were women among the plenary speakers. The Poincare prize was awarded at the conference. A bid for the next ICMP was made by Prague and Rio, and a vote decided in favour of Rio. The next ICMP will be held there in the summer of 2006. The conference on group theory methods (type B) took place in Cocyoc, Mexico, summer 2004. The meeting was successful and included women participants and participants from developing countries. The local committee was headed by K. B. Wolf and encountered some problems with the Mexican authorities regarding visas for individuals from certain countries. A letter from the organizers regarding this will be forwarded to IUPAP separately. -- J.
