Conference in Abstract Harmonic Analysis”.
National Sun Yat–sen University held the fifth one in 2009. The first three conferences were held at
Koc University in Istanbul, Turkey, in 2002, 2004 and
2006; the fourth one was at the Chinese University of Hong Kong in 2007; the

in 2013, and the eighth one was held in Halifax, 2015.
This
conference will especially pay attention to the recent rapid development of the
interrelationship between Abstract Harmonic Analysis, Classical Harmonic
Analysis and Applied Analysis.
Special
event: To express our appreciation for his great contribution to abstract
harmonic analysis, we will celebrate the 75th
birthday of Professor Anthony To-Ming Lau in the banquet on June 27,

·
Click and fetch a campus
map of the venue (International Research Building A6 in the map); visit
also Department of
Applied Math., National
Sun Yat-sen University, Kaohsiung

instructions to the campus, and a map of the
Kaohsiung city.
Travel
Information:
·
If you travel by air, please make sure that
your final destination is Hsiaokang International Airport at Kaohsiung.
The airport code of
Kaohsiung Airport on your ticket
is KHH. There is another (much bigger) Taoyuan International Airport
(previously known as Chiang Kai-shek International Airport) located at Taoyuan, 1 hour to Taipei downtown, and 5 hours highway
drive from Kaohsiung.
There are frequent
scheduled flights connecting Kaohsiung (airport code: KHH) to other
cities. In particular, there are about 10 flights a day from Hong Kong to
Kaohsiung, and another 10 flights from Kaohsiung to Hong Kong, via the China Airlines (CI), Mandarin Airline (AE), Cathay Pacific (CX) and Dragon Airlines (KA). If you want
to fly to Taipei (airport
code: TPE), though
not advised,
and plan to take a high speed train
(90 minute one way) from Taipei to Kaohsiung, please arrange your flight to
arrive in Taipei before 7pm to catch the last train (departing at 22:35pm, and
arriving at Zuoying
HSR station at 23:39pm)). You need to take an
airport metro train train or an air shuttle bus
connecting the airport and the high speed train station at Taoyuan
for approximately 40 minutes one way.
Upon arriving at
the Kaohsiung, you can take a metro
train from the KHH
airport station / Zuoying
HSR station to the downtown Kaohsiung,
the Kingship Hotel at O2 station, the university campus at O1 station (‘O’ for Orange color). Alternatively, you can take a taxi to
the hotel, or the
university (known locally as Chung Shan University: ‘Chung Shan’ is the other
name of Dr. Sun Yat-sen.) You
pay by meter plus a fixed airport taxi service charge (NT $50). The cost
for a single trip from Kaohsiung Airport to the hotels, or to the University is
about NT $350 + 50. Paying tips is not necessary in Taiwan.
However, you have to pay by local currency (New Taiwan Dollars NT$30 = US$ 1
approx). We suggest you to make
money exchange at the KHH airport. The rate is same as in downtown banks
there.
·
If you travel by train, you can take a taxi from Kaohsiung Train Station to
the University for about NT $200 per single trip. Or you can take the No. 248
bus and get off from the bus at the University Tunnel Entrance bus stop. The
fare is NT $12. You can also use the
metro and stop at the O1
station.
·
If you use the highspeed train,
you can transfer to the metro
at the Kaohsiung highspeed train station. The
campus is in 10 minute walking distance from the O1 (Orange One) metro station.
·
If you travel by car, exit at the Chung Cheng Road rump on Highway 1.
Then turn right at the first traffic light and you will be on Chung Cheng Road.
Follow Chung Cheng Road until the end for about 20 minutes. Soon after you pass
the Love River Bridge, make a right turn at the loop. You will be on Dagung Road and after a few blocks,
you will be on the joint of a `T' shape bridge. Make a left turn there. Drive
straight and make a right turn at Lin Hai 2nd Road.
After four traffic lights you will arrive at the University Tunnel Entrance
(for bicycles and walkers only). Make a left turn and follow the `S' sharp
river side Lienhai road. About 5 minutes you will see
the Main Entrance of the National Sun Yat-sen University. Tell the guards there
you are attending an international mathematics workshop at the International
Research Building, and then you will know how to drive to the venue.
Foreign nationals
may obtain tourist visas to enter Taiwan if they hold foreign passports or
travel documents valid for more than six months. Please visit Bureau
of Consular Affairs, Ministry of Foreign Affairs or a Taiwan Embassy in
your country for visa application. Visit also Information on
Republic of China Visitor Visas.
30-day to half-year
visa-free privileges are afforded to citizens of many
countries and 30-day landing visas are afforded to citizens of other few
countries. For any further information, please visit the website of Bureau of Consular Affairs, Ministry of
Foreign Affairs.
One may find other
useful information from the web page of the Tourism Bureau, ROC at http://www.tbroc.gov.tw. A brief history of
Taiwan, as well as travel information, is available there, too. The temperature
of Kaohsiung in July is about 25--33 degrees C. No heavy clothing is in
need.
Currency
Exchange:
The current exchange
rate is about US $1= NT $30 (New Taiwan Dollars). It is best to make
exchange at Kaohsiung Airport
right after you walk out from the custom. You can also make exchange at banks
in downtown or at the hotel. Almost
no service charge or surplus applies when you do it in a bank or at the
airport. You can change it back to US dollars or Euros or other currencies at
the airport again before you leave the country. One can also draw local currency from
ATM, but we do
NOT check or guarantee. Credit cards are
very popular here.
Notes:
1. A shuttle bus will pick up
participants from Kingship Hotel
to the
venue at 8:10 and 8:40 am, Monday, June 25, 2018. Pick up at other mornings are under
surveyed.
2. The Opening of the Workshop will be 9:10am,
Monday, June 25, 2018, and followed by first talk immediately.
3. The last talk will be in the morning of
June 29, 2018, and possibly followed by a half day tour to local attractions
(under planning).
4. We will provide free lunch
boxes/snacks/coffee/tea during the Workshop.
Other informations:
1. Electricity is supplied at 110
V - 60 Hz AC with American standard plugs.
2. Local weather in Juue is hot and humid. It is easy to reach over
3. Computer LCD projectors,
overhead transparency projectors, real object projectors, black and white
blocks are all available.
4. We use Google and gmails everywhere in Taiwan. We also use Line, whatsapp, wechat, Skype, FB or
MSM/Yahoo Messengers. Public and free network connections are provided in venue
and the hotel. Phone cards are now popular and cheap in Taiwan. One
can buy some at, e.g., the 24-hour operated `Family Mart’ chained store in
campus. Mobile phone networks are everywhere. English speakers in Kaohsiung survive
easily, and it is not too difficult to find the hotel/campus/attractions by
yourself and metro.
5. You can swim in the beach inside the campus
nearby the venue, although you might not have time.
