Expanded Classification System for JMM 2022 and Beyond

This is the expanded classification system for sessions and talks at the JMM starting in 2022 and beyond. In addition to the existing MSC classifications, there are new ones, listed here. Session organizers and individual speakers should use these codes to find classifications that represent their interests when submitting proposals for the scientific program, or abstracts for their talks.

The JMM program is organized in a "bottom-up," not a "top-down" way — sessions and talks occur because individuals and small groups of mathematicians take the initiative to organize them. The JMM has welcomed mathematicians in partnership for decades, and the gathering will continue on in that spirit for decades to come.

Beginning in 2022, the AMS will solely manage the meeting logistics for all participating organizations. We are committed to the principle that the JMM strives to represent the full spectrum of interests of the mathematical community, and we hope that future JMMs will be as broad, and potentially even broader, than they are now.
