on Tuesday 9am Laci Babai talks about Graph Isomorphism in
Quasipolynomial Time
Description
Combinatorics is the study of existence, enumeration, and optimization of
discrete configurations. It has applications in computer science, operation
research, genetics, and other natural and social sciences. This conference
emphasizes its optimization and extremal aspects, with topics including
extremal set theory, coloring theory for graphs and hypergraphs, Ramsey theory,
cycles in graphs, discrete geometry, and probabilistic methods in
combinatorics.
