Conference Date: 14 - 18 December 1995

The Symposium will be held in the Chinese University of Hong Kong on 14-18 December 1995 in the memory of the late Dr Y.C. Wong who passed away last year after a brave fight against cancer. For over four decades Dr Wong had made many significant contributions. His devoted teaching and prolific mathematical research will be remembered as well as his endeavors in the linkage and cooperation of mathematicians in different parts of the world especially between mainland China, Hong Kong and Taiwan. Besides a number of local mathematicians from the Asian region, the following is a partial list of invited speakers from overseas.

Keynote/Invited Oversea Speakers
