If you arrive by plane, please, give the details of your arrival (company,
flight, scheduled time, etc.) to analysis@pdmi.ras.ru, so that we could pick
you up at the "Pulkovo" international airport. (Look for the poster "Euler
International Mathematical Institute"). Alternatively, you may take bus
no.13 at "Pulkovo" international terminal, bus no.39 at the domestic
terminal, or any minibus which will bring you to the metro station
"Moskovskaya". It takes about 30 minutes to reach the stations
"Petrogradskaya" or "Chernaya Rechka" (by a direct train). From both
stations you may take bus no. 1 or 46 or trolley-bus no.34 that goes to
Pesochnaya Naberezhnaya (two stops), or minibuses no. 46, 76, 127, 252,
298, 346, and 321 (you should ask to stop before the Kamennoostrovskii most
(bridge) if you go from "Petrogradskaya"). CIS-participants who come by
train may easily use metro - every railway station has a nearby metro
station.
4. REGISTRATION AND FEES
Registration desk will be open on June 23 at the Euler Institute from 9:30.
