Message from the President of the ICA

 

I hope everyone is staying healthy during the ongoing pandemic. I would like to let you know about a few updates relating to the ICA.

First, the ICA Office will be moving from Florida Atlantic University to the University of Minnesota-Duluth (UMD). Dalibor Froncek is working with Spyros Magliveras to effect the necessary changes, which will take place in the coming months. Spyros has decided to step back from his role as Registrar, and after consideration and a vote by ICA Council, the move to UMD was approved. We are of course very grateful to Spyros for his work as Registrar and his long-standing support of the the ICA.

The next change concerns the Bulletin of the ICA (BICA). I am very pleased to announce that Ortrud Oellermann has accepted an invitation to become an Editor-in-Chief of BICA. Ortrud is a longstanding ICA Fellow and a Hall medal winner, and her expertise in graph theory will be valuable to BICA moving forward.

Also in connection with BICA is the news that it will be indexed by Scopus. We just received the positive decision from the Content Selection & Advisory Board of Scopus within the last week. We will be receiving a content coverage agreement from Scopus within the next three months.

Finally, I would like to mention that Gus Simmons recently made a very generous donation to the ICA for use with the Bulletin. Gus is an Honorary Fellow of the ICA, which is the highest honour bestowed by the ICA. On behalf of the ICA, I would like to sincerely thank Gus for his donation.

Conference announcement: FQ15 13-17 June 2022, Aubervilliers, France

 https://fq15.telecom-paris.fr/ International Conference on Finite Fields and Their Applications 2022 (Fq15) The conference  Fq15  will take place at Campus Condorcet, Aubervilliers, France (on line 12 of the Paris metro, at one station from the limit of Paris) during the week of June 13-17, 2022. Fq15  will continue the 30-year-old tradition of a forum for researchers on the mathematical aspects of finite fields and their applications.  Scientific Scope Topics of interest include, but are not limited to: Theory: structure of finite fields, primitive elements, normal bases, polynomials, number-theoretic aspects of finite fields, character sums, function fields, planar functions and almost perfect nonlinear functions, equations over finite fields. Computation: algorithms and complexity, polynomial factorization, decomposition, and irreducibility testing, sequences and functions. Applications: algebraic coding theory, cryptography, algebraic geometry over finite fields, finite incidence

The award recognizes excellent research by fellows or associate fellows of the ICA early in their research careers.  “She is a leader in her profession, distinguishing herself in organizing conferences, mathematical outreach and teaching excellence,” said the ICA in a release. Huggan joined VIU in August 2022. She completed her PhD in 2019 at Dalhousie University and was a Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council of Canada post-doctoral fellow at Toronto Metropolitan University from 2019 to 2021. She was an Atlantic Association for Research in the Mathematical Sciences post-doctoral fellow at Mount Allison University from 2021 to 2022. Huggan’s research examines pursuit-evasion games, and her current research r
