 ANNOUNCEMENTS FOR 2003CALL
FOR PAPERS On April 22-24, 2003 the
Enlarged Sessions of the Seminar of I. Vekua Institute
of Applied Mathematics of I. Javakhishvili Tbilisi State University will be
held under the support of ISMP at UNESCO. The sections of the seminar are :  Partial differential equations (directed by Prof. George Jaiani, scientific
secretary – Prof. Temur Jangveladze) Mechanics of deformable solids (directed by Prof. Mikheil Basheleishvili,
scientific secretary – Prof. Merab Svanadze). At the Seminar 20-minute reports will be delivered. Those wishing to participate are asked to contact by E-mail:  jaiani@viam.sci.tsu.ge Deadline for applications: March 1,
 2003.  Registration fee is $200. The publishing of proceedings of the reports of the seminar is planned. The
diskette of the report, not exceeding 4 printed pages, in English, using TEX,
LATEX, AMSTEX, AMSLATEX programs, together with a hardcopy should be submitted
to the organizers of the Seminar during the seminar days. The work of the seminar will start on April 22, 2003, at 10.00 at I.

 Academy of Sciences, Tbilisi,
 Georgia) INTEGRAL OPERATORS IN BANACH FUNCTION SPACES WITH VARIABLE EXPONENT Summary: The Banach function spaces with variable exponent and
related Sobolev- type spaces proved to be an appropriate tool to study models
with non-standard local growth (in elasticity theory, physics, fluid mechanics,
differential equation). Those applications stimulate a quickly developing
progress in the theory of mentioned spaces.  Although the spaces $L^{p(\cdot)}$ posseses some undesirable properties
(functions from these spaces are not $p(x)$-mean continuos, the space
$L^{p(\cdot)}(\Omega)$ is not translation invariant, convolution operators in
general do not behave well and so on).  In our lecture we plan to give the solutions of the boundedness and
compactness problems in weighted Banach function spaces for classical integral
operators. In particular, we will present the boundedness criteria for the
Hilbert transform, Cauchy singular integrals and potentials in weighted
Lebesgue spaces with power weights. Some applications to singular integral equations and boundary value problems
for analytic functions within the framework of the spaces with variable
exponent will treated. Alois Kufner (Mathematical Institute, Academy of
  Scinces, Czech Republic) HARDY INEQUALITY AND ITS MODIFICATIONS Summary: As a continuation of the lecture series presented at TICMI
1999, this time the series will deal with several problems connected with the
Hardy inequality and its modifications, in particular, with 
 higher order inequalities
     for well-determined and overdetermined classes of functions,fractional order Hardy
     inequalities,weighted inequalities on
     cones of functions,the llimit case of Hardy’s
     inequality (i.e., the Carleman-Knopp inequality),the critical exponent for
     compact weighted imbeddings. These results will be used to derive some (basic) properties of the spectra
of some (in general nonlinear) degenerates and singular differential operators. Coordinator: George Jaiani This course is suitable for advanced graduate students or recent Ph.D.'s.
The participants will also have an opportunity to give 20-minute talkes on
their own work at a mini-symposium which will take place during the Advanced
Course. Lectures and abstracts of the talks will be published and distributed
among the lecturers and participants after Advanced Course. The registration
fee for participants is 400 USD which includes all local expenses during the
Advanced Course. A restricted number of participants will be awarded grants.  Further information: TICMI, I.Vekua Institute of Applied Mathematics
