South-Central Combinatorics Conference

CombinaTexas 2016 会议将于 2016 年 5 月 7 日至 8 日在德克萨斯州大学城德克萨斯 A&M 大学举行。会议将于周六和周日举行，以方便研究人员参加，并将有六场 50 分钟的全体演讲和一些贡献演讲，每场演讲时长 20 分钟。 2016 年预计将有约 50 名参与者，并行会议中将有约 20 场贡献演讲。 CombinaTexas系列会议的目的是增强德克萨斯州及周边各州组合学家的教育和研究氛围，增进该地区数学家之间的交流，并为介绍和讨论组合学领域的最新发展提供一个论坛。自2000年德州农工大学主办第一届会议以来，几乎每年都在美国中南部的不同机构举办。 CombinaTexas 2016 是该系列会议的第十六次。会议将通过分发列表和相关会议网站进行宣传（会议网站位于 http://www.math.tamu.edu/conferences/combinatexas/ ，包括演讲者的标题和摘要）。会议将以广泛的组合研究为特色，包括代数组合、枚举组合、几何组合、图论的广泛领域以及各种应用。图论特别会议将由 Neil Robertson 教授和丁国立教授主持。已确认的全体演讲嘉宾包括 Bruno Benedetti 教授（迈阿密大学）、Guoli Ding 教授（路易斯安那州立大学）、Fu Liu 教授（加州大学戴维斯分校）、Nicholas Loehr 教授（弗吉尼亚理工大学）、Neil Robertson 教授（俄亥俄州立大学）和 Anne Shiu 教授（德克萨斯农工大学）。

The CombinaTexas 2016 conference will be held at Texas A&M University, College Station TX on May 7-8 2016. The conference will take place on Saturday and Sunday to make it easy for researchers to attend, and will feature six fifty minute plenary lectures and a number of contributed talks, each twenty minutes long. About 50 participants are anticipated in 2016, with about 20 contributed talks in parallel sessions. The aim of the CombinaTexas conference series is to enhance the educational and research atmosphere of combinatorialists in Texas and the surrounding states, increase communication between mathematicians of the region, and provide a forum for presentation and discussion of the most recent developments in the field of Combinatorics. Ever since Texas A&M University hosted the first conference in 2000, it has been held almost every year at different institutions in the South Central United States. CombinaTexas 2016 is the sixteenth conference in this series. The conference will be publicized using distribution lists and on related conference websites (a conference website is at http://www.math.tamu.edu/conferences/combinatexas/ including titles and abstracts of the speakers).The conference will feature a broad selection of combinatorial research, including Algebraic Combinatorics, Enumerative Combinatorics, Geometric Combinatorics, a wide range of areas in Graph Theory, and various applications. A Special Session on Graph Theory will be led by plenary speakers Professors Neil Robertson and Guoli Ding. The confirmed plenary speakers are Professor Bruno Benedetti (U Miami), Professor Guoli Ding (LSU), Professor Fu Liu (UC Davis), Professor Nicholas Loehr (Virginia Tech), Professor Neil Robertson (Ohio State) and Professor Anne Shiu (Texas A&M).
