Arnold's Mathematical Seminar

Vladimir Igorevich Arnold passed away on June 3, 2010 in Paris. He was buried on June 15 in Moscow, at Novodevichy Monastery. RIP.

This seminar was started by V.I.Arnold in the 1960's. It is dedicated to singularity theory and related topics (which, of course, include a big part of mathematics).

For many years, the seminar meets on Tuesdays, 16:20 -- 18:00 in room no. 14-14 of the main building of Moscow State University. Since 1993, the Parisian branch of the seminar meets at the same time in the Jussieu Mathematical Institute (formerly in Ecole Normale Superieure).

Here is the mailing list of the seminar which contains e-mail addresses of the participants and other interested people. People who want their names and addresses to be included (or deleted) are welcome to send an e-mail to duzhin(at)pdmi.ras.ru. Update: Sending mail to arnsem at pdmi.ras.ru is disabled as of January 4, 2007, because of SPAM and numerous address changes. Some addresses in the list may be correct, so I am leaving it as it is (in -- hopefully -- robot-unreadable form).
