Math-Info 2010: towards new interactions between mathematics and computer science
CIRM, Marseille, France
The session consists of five weeks, from February 1st to March 6th. Each week is devoted to a specific theme. We have tried to order these themes so that participants can not only attend the week they might be considered specialists of, but also a consecutive week (or more), where they are merely amateur.
* 01-02 to 05-02 : Lattice Algorithmics
* 08-02 to 12-02 : Dynamics and Computation
* 15-02 to 19-02 : Multi-dimensional Subshifts and Tilings
* 22-02 to 26-02 : Sage Days (mathematical software)
* 01-03 to 05-03 : Topological Methods for the Study of Discrete Structures
The five weeks roughly follow the same model:
* the mornings are devoted to lectures (around three lectures of four hours each for the whole week), given by renowned researchers;
* the afternoons will be more informal, with the possibility for the participants to propose working sessions, promoting fruitful discussions between participants. Your active participation is therefore needed for choosing the topics of those sessions! Those sessions may also include an introducing talk to the topic of the workshop and few shorts talks given by young researchers or PhD students.
* the evenings could be devoted to exercise sessions or to further questions to the lecturers of the morning.
There will be no registration fee, but you need to register as soon as possible if you intend to participate.
