Forum for Interdisciplinary Mathematics (FIM)
The Forum is a registered trust in India. It is, in effect, an India based international society of scholars working in mathematical sciences and its partner areas (a partner area is defined as one where some knowledge of mathematical sciences is desirable to carry out research and development). The society was incepted in 1975 by a group of University of Delhi intellectuals led by Professor Bhu Dev Sharma. The forum has been conducting international conferences in India and abroad.
One major aspect of this conference is that it will serve as a vehicle to groom young researchers including both undergraduate/graduate students and recent recipients of PhD degrees. These young researchers will be encouraged to make regular oral presentations and will not be restricted to making only poster presentations.
The conference will feature separately a section on student paper competition. A selection panel will judge the presentations and make recommendations for awards.
In addition, the conference will devote a session on "Editors Round Table" to help scholars appreciate the "current trends and techniques" of scholarly publications.
