The conference will be held at the department of Mathematics at Stockholm University located at the small bay called "Brunnsviken" (building 5 and 6 in the official map). The buildings should not be mixed up with the main university building situated close to the underground station "Universitetet".
The nearest bus stop, called Albano, is located about 100 m from the department. The subway station Universitetet is about 1 km away.
