Submission deadline: June 21, 2024
We welcome you to join us for a 3-day research workshop, Fulkerson 100 (https://www.math.uwaterloo.ca/~fulkerson100/), hosted by the Dept. of Combinatorics & Optimization (C&O) at the University of Waterloo from July 17-19, 2024, in honor of Ray Fulkerson’s centenary year of birth. Fulkerson was one of the leading figures in combinatorial optimization, and his seminal work has had a profound and lasting impact in shaping the fields of combinatorial optimization and Operations Research. (This is the Wed-Fri of the week right before ISMP 2024 in Montreal.)
The workshop will feature invited talks (https://www.math.uwaterloo.ca/~fulkerson100/invited.html) by distinguished researchers in the areas of graph theory, combinatorics, optimization, and theoretical computer science (TCS). It will also feature lightning talks and a poster session to showcase research by students and postdocs. We hope to bring together a wide variety of researchers in discrete mathematics, while (implicitly) commemorating Fulkerson’s vision and contributions.
The link for registration is here: https://www.math.uwaterloo.ca/~fulkerson100/registration.html.
As part of registration, students and postdocs can indicate whether they would like to present a lightning talk and poster at the event. (There is some limited funding to help support the participation of students and postdocs who are in need.)
