The XXIX International Colloquium on Group-Theoretical Methods in Physics

The series of International Colloquia on Group-Theoretical Methods in Physics was initiated in 1972 following the efforts of Henri Bacry in Marseille and Aloysio Janner in Nijmegen.  The aim was to provide a forum for physicists interested in group-theoretical methods which were mostly represented at that time by two large communities, namely elementary-particle theorists and phenomenologists on the one hand and by solid-state specialists on the other hand.  There were also mathematicians who were eager to apply newly-developed group-theoretical techniques and algebraic structures.  Since then the colloquia have been held in various places and have earned a strong scientific reputation around the world. Currently the ICGTMP attract theoretical and experimental physicists, mathematicians and scientists in related disciplines who are interested in the latest methods and applications of group theory in its widest sense.

The XXIX International Colloquium on Group-Theoretical Methods in Physics (GROUP29) which will be held from August 20, 2012 to August 26, 2012, at the Chern Institute of Mathematics, Nankai University, in Tianjin, China.
