  Fall School: Order and Geometry

  September 14 - 17, 2018

  Gutshof Sauen, near Berlin

  http://page.math.tu-berlin.de/~felsner/FoC/OGschool2018.html

======================================================================

The fall school is organized within the Research Training Group
"Facets of Complexity" (www.facetsofcomplexity.de).

The purpose of the fall school is to give an introductory overview
of some new developments in the area, to present current research
directions, and to give students working in this or related fields the
opportunity to meet and to get to know each other.

The school is addressed to advanced undergraduate and graduate
students of Mathematics or Computer Science with interest in
Discrete Mathematics and in particular in Partially Ordered Sets
and Discrete Geometry. Basic knowledge in discrete mathematics is
assumed.

The fall school consists of four courses.

   Topics on flip graphs
       Jean Cardinal, (Université Libre de Bruxelles, Belgium)
   Colorings of graphs with geometric representations
       Bartosz Walczak, (Jagiellonian University, Kraków, Poland)
   Layered treewidth/separators with applications
       Vida Dujmović, (University of Ottawa, Canada)
   On crossing numbers of complete and complete bipartite graphs
       Oswin Aichholzer, (Technische Universität Graz, Austria)

In addition to the lectures, exercises will be solved in small groups
with solution sessions in the evenings. The language of the school is
English.

The school will take place at Gutshof Sauen, a remote manor 70 km
southeast of Berlin. The costs per participant are EURO 150 and
includes full board during the fall school.

The number of participants is limited to about 25. Applications can be
submitted using the form on the summer school website until July 31, 2018.
