• This report contains paper abstracts of the workshop "Visualization and Mathematics" held in Berlin-Dahlem in September 1997. The meeting serves as a forum for an international community of researchers and practitioners on the application of visualization techniques in mathematics and on mathematical concepts in visualization. It is the second symposium in a series of workshops bringing together mathematicians and experts from scientific visualization. The themes of the workshop include: \begin{itemize} \item - applications in differential geometry and partial differential equations \item - algorithmic aspects of adaptive and hierarchical techniques in space and time \item - time control of animated objects and corresponding algorithms \item - algorithmic representation of objects for display, storage and exchange \item - new visualization techniques for mathematical structures \item - integration of visualization with symbolic and numerical computation. \end{itemize}
