Dear Colleague;

We are organizing a conference on Numerical Methods in Finance in the framework of the European network Amamef (Advanced Mathematical Methods in Finance) (see http://www.iac.rm.cnr.it/amamef/ ).

This congress will be held in Rocquencourt, at INRIA, February 1-3, 2006. There will be 6 plenary sessions and sessions of contributed talks.

The main topics and objectives of the congress can be found in the attached pdf file. The webpage of the conference will soon be created at the address: http://www-rocq.inria.fr/mathfi/Amamef.html

The financial support of the ESF and Amamef has made possible to organize this workshop free of charge. There are no registration costs. Nevertheless the number of participants is limited to 150. Therefore, we encourage participants to pre-register well in advance. The confirmation of registration will be sent by January 1, 2006. The registration form and practical information will soon be available on the conference web site.

At this time we invite you to participate in this congress and we are now receiving proposals for contributed talks. If you are interested in participating with a contributed talk, please send an e-mail to Arturo.Kohatsu-Higa@inria.fr with a detailed abstract of maximum 2 pages, filling the attached format for contributed talks.

We hope to be able to give a quick reply at your proposal but all submissions will be evaluated at the latest by January 1, 2006.

We sincerely hope that you are interested in participating and look forward to receiving your contribution,

Sincerely yours,

The Organizing Committee

Arturo Kohatsu-Higa Damien Lamberton Agnes Sulem
