In memory of Prof. Jürgen Hurrelbrink (1944-2009) a conference on Algebraic K-theory and Arithmetic will take place from July 22 to July 28, 2012 at the Banach Center in Będlewo, Poland.

The 2011 Porcelli Lectures speaker is Professor Lawrence C. Evans of University of California, Berkeley.

The Porcelli Lectures this year will be delivered by Don Zagier, a director of the Max Planck Institute for Mathematics in Bonn, Germany, and a professor at the Collège de France in Paris, France.

The Pythagorean Theorem from another, slightly sophisticated, point of view

The Porcelli Lectures this year will be delivered by Richard V. Kadison, Kuemmerle Professor of Mathematics, at the University of Pennsylvania. His talks will center around operator algebras and the Pythagorean Theorem from another, slightly sophisticated, point of view.
