The week before ISAAC’24, on Dec 3-6 , Australian researchers are organizing a 4-day Summer (south hemisphere) School on “Recent Trends in Algorithms” in Sydney, with one day dedicated to each of Algorithmic Fairness, Quantum Computing, Data Structures, and Privacy. Participation to the summer school is free (though registration is mandatory: register by November 5).

Thanks to the ACM SIGACT, Google Research, and the School of CS at U Sydney, we have some travel funding to cover accommodation for a number undergrad and grad students (apply by September 2).

DIMACS is organizing a tutorial in Fine-grained complexity in July 2024. The tutorial is primarily for graduate students working on topics in and around theoretical computer science (TCS) who are not already familiar with fine-grained complexity. Students who do not have access to an expert in fine-grained complexity at their institution and students working in other areas of TCS (i.e. not fine-grained complexity) who want to incorporate the fine-grained lens into their research will be prioritized for admission and financial support.

Czech Summer School on Discrete Mathematics 2024 will feature lecture series on Combinatorial and algorithmic applications of twin-width (Édouard Bonnet, CNRS) and Poset inequalities (Igor Pak, UCLA). The School is primarily intended for PhD students and postdocs, but students and researchers in other stages of their careers may also participate. A limited number of stipends to cover travel expenses and accommodation for participants is available.

The goal of this summer school is to present an in-depth introduction to post-quantum and quantum cryptography for advanced
undergraduate and graduate students, as well as young researchers, in mathematics, computer science, and physics. Lecturers in the school will discuss both topics hand in hand: post-quantum
cryptography, or the art of analyzing security of classical
cryptosystems against attacks, and quantum cryptography, or the art of leveraging quantum effects to develop new cryptographic schemes that are made possible by quantum information.
