9617148罗伯茨该奖项将用于资助将于1997年3月23-27日在普林斯顿高级研究所举行的为期五天的研讨会“离散概率、组合学和理论计算机科学中的统计物理方法”。讲习班的目标是将从事统计物理、概率、组合学和理论计算机科学的研究人员聚集在一起，目的是开发一种共同语言，并认识到这些学科正在处理的基本问题之间的相似之处。将有几次介绍性讲座，概述研讨会的一些主要主题。此外，将有更多的高级讲座，为初级和高级研究人员提供展示最新成果的机会。将有充足的时间讨论公开的问题。

9617148 Roberts This award provides funds to partially support the five day workshop, "Statistical Physics Methods in Discrete Probability, Combinatorics, and Theoretical Computer Science" to be held March 23-27, 1997 at the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton. The goal of the workshop is to bring together researchers working at the interface of statistical physics, probability, combinatorics and theoretical computer science with the intention of developing a common language and recognizing parallels among the fundamental problems being addressed in these disciplines. There will be several introductory lectures surveying some of the major themes of the workshop. In addition, there will be more advanced lectures giving junior and senior researchers opportunities to present recent results. There will be ample time for discussion of open problems.
