DESCRIPTION

The conference is aimed at interactions between ergodic theory and dynamical systems and number theory. The main subjects are: disjointness in ergodic theory and randomness in number theory, ergodic theory and combinatorial number theory, and homogenous dynamics and its applications. As we count on the participation of the best world experts in these domains and on participation of brilliant young researchers, the conference should present the best of the state-of-the-art of these domains and will also show perspectives and challenges for them.
