THE ITALIAN SUMMER 2000 SCHOOL
Last updated August 14, 2000
This school was organized also in cooperation with Istituto Italiano per gli Studi Filosofici (Naples), and took place in Forino in July 17 - 29, 2000
In this edition the School was offer two series of courses, one for beginners and one for veterans. Diplomas of participation in the School were handed to all participants. Moreover, there were examinations for all courses, which were organized as follows. For each course students received a list of examination problems. To pass an examination one had to solve reasonably large number of problems. The exact values of these numbers along with the lists of problems for all courses you find on the corresponding course pages, below the program. Students having passed an examination received (or will receive) a diploma certifying this fact. Students having not passed all examinations yet, can do this by email.
Also during the school the scientific session of Diffiety Institute took place. The program see below.
