The Journal of the London Mathematical Society was founded 100 years ago, in 1926. To celebrate this milestone, the Society is publishing a Special Centenary Issue comprising a collection of short survey articles based on a selection of influential articles from the Journal over the years.
At this celebratory event, the speakers will deliver general-interest talks based on their surveys. All the surveys can be read online on the Issue's webpage.
This event is open to all who are interested, whether LMS members or not.
