The TNMOC/London Mathematical Society 3 Day Conference

Celebrating Alan Turing’s 1936 seminal paper ‘On computable numbers, with an application to the Entscheidungsproblem’ The TNMOC/London Mathematical Society Conference The conference will take place on 16-18 September 2026, bringing together mathematicians and leading thinkers in the fields inspired by Alan Turing’s seminal paper On Computable Numbers. It will appeal especially to mathematicians and researchers interested in computability, decidability, mathematical logic and the history of computing. The conference will also provide an opportunity for early-career researchers to showcase their work in areas stimulated by the 1936 paper. We will engage the public in debate about these ideas and their current significance. We will explain, educate, celebrate, inspire and entertain. The conference is open to all. We are delighted to be able to offer bursaries and discounted registration fees to accepted early career researchers who can present their work in the poster session. Applications for bursaries will be reviewed by the London Mathematical Society. The National Museum of Computing and the London Mathematical Society are honoured to be able to facilitate a major international conference on the ideas and influences prompted by Alan Turing’s ground-breaking 1936 paper published in the Proceedings of the LMS. The world’s leading research mathematicians, philosophers and thinkers – all working in fields which have arisen from the original ‘Computable Numbers’ idea back in 1936 – will present their work and explain how ideas imagined 90 years ago have relevance today. At the iconic Bletchley Park Fellowship Auditorium, 16-18 September 2026 Bringing the leading thinkers together Contributions from the US, Argentina, New Zealand and the UK Current research inspired by Turing’s 1936 paper Flagship launch for Computable90 - a programme of events, exhibitions, talks, challenges, workshops and more - presented by The National Museum of Computing Registration Registration price covers: full 3 Day conference admission and daytime refreshments, heritage admission to TNMOC and Bletchley Park. There is also an option to buy a 1 day ticket. Guided tour of Bletchley Park and Conference dinner on 16th September available as extras.
