International Conference on Linear Algebra and its Applications (ICLAA 2021)
ICLAA 2021 will be held in the hybrid format as per the schedule given from December 15-17, 2021. Participants are requested to choose the format in which they like to attend. Kindly contact the organizers and pay the registration fees accordingly.
Purpose
The present conference shall provide a platform for leading Mathematicians and Statisticians, working around the globe in the theme area to discuss several research issues and to introduce new innovations. The main goal of the conference is to bring experts, young researchers, and students together to present recent developments in this dynamic and important field. The conference also aims to stimulate research and support the interaction between the scientists by creating an environment for the participants to exchange ideas and to initiate collaborations and professional partnerships.
On behalf of the Scientific Committee, and the Local Organizing Committee, we have much pleasure in extending a cordial invitation to participate in this conference.
The theme of the conference shall focus on
- Classical Matrix Theory and Linear Algebra
- Nonnegative Matrices and Special Matrices
- Matrices and Graphs
- Combinatorial Matrix Theory
- Linear Statistical Inference
- Matrix and Graph Methods in Statistics
- Matrix and Graph Methods in Biological Sciences
- Matrices in Error Analysis and its Applications.
Linear Algebra and Graph Theory are important branches of Mathematics having applications in each and every branch of Applied Sciences. The topic ‘Matrix Methods in Statistics’ is a branch of Linear Algebra and Matrix Theory containing a variety of challenging problems in Linear Statistical Models and Statistical Inference having applications in various branches of Applied Statistics such as Natural Sciences, Medicine, Economics, Electrical Engineering, Markov Chains, Digital Signal Processing, Pattern Recognition and Neural Network, to name a few. Advances in Combinatorial Matrix theory are motivated by a wide range of subjects such as Networks, Chemistry, Genetics, Bioinformatics, Computer Science, and Information Technology. The areas of Classical Matrix Theory and Combinatorial Matrix Theory interact with each other, which is evident from the interplay between Graphs and Matrices. Generalized Inverses of Matrices such as the Incidence Matrix and Laplacian Matrix are mathematically interesting and have great practical significance. Covariance Matrices play an important role in the study of uncertainty associated with data related to measurements, which is an important part of applied Mathematics and Statistics.
This conference is in sequel to the conferences CMTGIM 2012, ICLAA 2014, and ICLAA 2017 held in Manipal during January 2012, December 2014, and December 2017 respectively. The present conference shall provide a platform for leading Mathematicians and Statisticians, working around the globe in the theme area to discuss several research issues and to introduce new innovations. The main goal of the conference is to bring experts, young researchers, and students together to present recent developments in this dynamic and important field. The conference also aims to stimulate research and support the interaction between the scientists by creating an environment for the participants to exchange ideas and to initiate collaborations and professional partnerships.
The ICLAA 2021 will be held beside 28th IWMS, and will have some common sessions, in honor of Prof. C. R. Rao, on the common day December 15, 2021. We are sure that ICLAA 2021 will be a great success with the participation of prominent researchers from across the globe working in Matrix Theory, Graph Theory, Network Science, Statistics, and allied subjects.

Title : To be announced
Beside organizing invited talks from eminent speakers, we invite participants to submit their research articles in the sessions of contributory talks.
Special Issue of ELA: Electronic Journal of Linear Algebra will publish a special issue dedicated to ICLAA 2021 (in honor of Pro. C. R. Rao). Articles focused in the broad area of Linear Algebra and its Applications, not necessarily presented in any of IWMS or ICLAA, one invited for the possible publication in the special issue. Publication is subject to a normal review process set by the journal. Special editors for the issue are: Ravindra B. Bapat, Manjunatha Prasad Karantha, Stephen J. Kirkland, and Simo Puntanen. For more details, please visit: https://www.emis.de/journals/ELA/Home.html.
Proceedings of conferences: We also invite, research and expository articles in the form of chapters on the theme area of ALAPS 2020, IWMS 2021 and ICLAA 2021 for the possible publication in a proceeding. Editorial team consists of: N. Balakrishnan, Ravindra B. Bapat, Manjunatha Prasad Karantha, Stephen J. Kirkland, Arbind K. Lal, Samir K. Neogy and Simo Puntanen. Title of the book in honor of C. R. Rao will be “Applied Linear Algebra, Probability, and Statistics”.
We do hope, we have an opportunity to meet in Manipal and enjoy the academic deliberation.
