We organise the International Conference
"Genesis of Finite Simple Groups: 66 and 6",
which aims to cover modern aspects of group theory.
All scientific activities will take place at Huayang Holiday Hotel, Zhengding County, Shijiazhuang
(see
Baidu maps and
Google maps) on December 1-5, 2024 (Nobember 30 is the day to arrive and December 6 is the day to leave, that is, there will be
no activities on these days).
The official language of the event is English.
The
program of the event consists of 50-minute invited talks and 25-minute contributed talks.
