TRAVEL GRANTS REPORT

The Travel Grants Committee (Professors M.S. Narasimhan, A.O. Kuku, Gu Chaohao, Eduard Zehnder and Jacob Palis), met in Paris, at Collége de France on April 9, 1994. The Committee received 197 applications by February 94. The Committee decided to give travel grants to 85 mathematicians, but six of them regreted that they had to decline the invitation for personal reasons. So IMU provided travel grants to 78 young researchers from developing countries and indicated one more to the Swiss Organizing Committee for local expenses. Actually, the local expenses to the 79 guarantees were covered by the Swiss.
