1.go to top of page[ID=91539]MSRI program — Combinatorial Representation Theory
14 Jan 2008 → 23 May 2008; Berkeley, California, United States
abstract: Recent catalysts stimulating growth of this field in the last few decades have been the discovery of "crystals" and the development of the combinatorics of affine Lie groups.. Today the subject intersects several fields: combinatorics, representation theory, analysis, algebraic geometry, Lie theory, and mathematical physics. The goal of this program is to bring together experts in these areas together in one interdisciplinary setting.

2.go to top of page[ID=16681]Combinatorics and Statistical Mechanics
14 Jan 2008 → 04 Jul 2008; Cambridge, United Kingdom
organizer: Isaac Newton Institute for Mathematical Sciences
abstract: The past half-decade has seen an increasing interaction between combinatorialists, probabilists, computer scientists and theoretical physicists concerned broadly with the study of "probability theory on graphs" or "statistical mechanics on graphs". The programme will build on this cross-fertilisation.
topics: Zeros of combinatorial polynomials, including the chromatic, flow, reliability and Tutte polynomials; Markov-chain Monte Carlo methods; combinatorial identities and their applications in statistical mechanics; use of methods from statistical mechanics and quantum field theory in combinatorial enumeration; correlation inequalities; and phase transitions in combinatorial structures

4.go to top of page[ID=85124]Percolation on transitive graphs
05 May 2008 → 09 May 2008; American Institute of Mathematics, Palo Alto, United States
abstract: Geometric properties of Cayley graphs often turn out to have counterparts in the probabilistic world, and vice versa, but the translations between the different viewpoints are not always trivial. The aim of this workshop is to bring together people working in geometric group theory, probability and dynamics to learn from each other about the relevant techniques in these fields and thus generate new momentum to solve some of the persistent open problems. This workshop will be devoted to percolation on transitive graphs, most importantly, on Cayley graphs of finitely generated infinite groups.

abstract: The conference is funded by an NSF grant. It will consist of a series of 10 lectures from June 23-27 which will be collected into a monograph.
The main focus of this conference will involve the mutually perpetuating interplay between ergodic theory, combinatorics and Diophantine analysis. Ergodic theory has its roots in statistical and celestial mechanics. In studying the long term behavior of dynamical systems, ergodic theory deals with such phenomena as recurrence and uniform distribution of orbits. Ramsey theory, a branch of combinatorics, is concerned with the phenomenon of preservation of highly organized structures under finite partitions.

abstract: The workshop is part of the triennial conference organized by the society for Foundations of Computational Mathematics hosted by the City University of Hong Kong, June 16-26 2008.
At the workshop we wish to discuss algebraic algorithms and symbolic computation in analysis and geometry, with an emphasis on problems resorting to differential and difference equations. More specific topics of the workshop include group theoretical methods, Lie symmetry and Galois theory, differential invariants, local and closed form solution, normal form algorithms and operator algebras. We wish this triennial workshop to be a forum for ideas, techniques and applications. We thus would like to encourage the speakers to present their contribution within perspective and for a rather wide ranging audience.
The conference as a whole should provide several other areas of interest for participants of the Symbolic Analysis workshop.

06 Jul 2008; Reykjavik, Iceland
abstract: Matching problems with preferences occur in widespread applications such as the assignment of school-leavers to universities, junior doctors to hospitals, students to campus housing, children to schools, kidney transplant patients to donors and so on. The common thread is that individuals have preference lists over the possible outcomes and the task is to find a matching of the participants that is in some sense optimal with respect to these preferences.
The remit of this workshop is to explore matching problems with preferences with an emphasis on the algorithms and complexity perspective, but a key objective is also to bring together the computer science and economics communities who have tended to follow different paths when studying these problems previously.

01 Sep 2008 → 06 Sep 2008; Montréal, Québec, Canada
abstract: Tiling problems have a long tradition in combinatorics and in statistical mechanics. One of the central problems is understanding the statistical structure of the patterns obtained when randomly tiling a large domain. As noticed by N. Elkies and J. Propp a decade ago, random tilings of a large planar domain may exhibit phase segregation; the density of tiles has a smooth (non-constant) variation in some regions of the domain in coexistence with a frozen region where the density of tiles is constant. In the corresponding surface picture the frozen region corresponds to a facet of constant slope while in the complement one has a rounded surface.
