Recent advances in probabilistic and extremal combinatorics
Workshop 7–12 August 2022
Organised byAsaf Shapira(Tel Aviv University, Israel) andBenny Sudakov(ETH Zurich)
The workshop will focus on several major research topics in modern Combinatorics. These topics include Extremal Problems for Graphs and Set Systems, Ramsey Theory, Combinatorial Number Theory, Combinatorial Geometry, Random Graphs and Probabilistic Methods. We aim to foster interaction between researchers in these rather diverse fields, to discuss recent progress and to communicate new results. We would like also to put an emphasis on the exchange of ideas, approaches and techniques between Probabilistic and Extremal Combinatorics. We also expect the participants to have many fruitful discussions that will lead to new ideas and joint research. Another aim is to use this forum to make state-of-the-art probabilistic and extremal techniques available to a broader audience, in particular to graduate students.
The conference will include lectures by senior and young researchers who will describe their most important recent results. We will also allot ample time for discussions and collaboration.
