The 8th Lake Michigan Workshop on Combinatorics and Graph Theory will be hosted by the Department of Mathematics at the University of Notre Dame on May 13--14 2023 (Saturday--Sunday). This annual workshop is targeted towards researchers in discrete mathematics at institutions in the Great Lakes area. The workshop will be centered around two series of three tutorial lectures each, focusing on state-of-the-art techniques in combinatorics and graph theory. There will be closely related short talks by students and early-career researchers, and a problem session. There will be ample unscheduled time during the workshop to allow new research collaborations to commence and active collaborations to be continued. The workshop will particularly benefit undergraduates, graduate students, and early-career researchers by introducing them to new research directions and helping them establish valuable connections with more senior colleagues. Combinatorics and Graph Theory are two very active areas of research within the broader field of Discrete Mathematics, with important ties to disciplines such as statistical physics and algebra. The confirmed tutorial speakers, Will Perkins (Georgia Institute of Technology) and Stephanie van Willigenburg (University of British Columbia), will speak about some of their own recent breakthroughs in these areas. Perkins will speak about the interactions between combinatorics, statistical physics and theoretical computer science, while van Willigenberg will speak about the classical topics of the chromatic polynomial and symmetric functions, and then about a recent notion, the chromatic symmetric function, that unites these ideas from graph theory and algebra.

第八届密歇根湖组合数学和图论研讨会将于5月13日至14日（星期六至星期日）在圣母大学数学系主办。这个年度研讨会是针对研究人员在离散数学机构在五大湖地区。该研讨会将围绕两个系列的三个教程讲座，每个集中在国家的最先进的组合和图论技术。学生和早期职业研究人员将进行密切相关的简短谈话，以及一个问题会议。研讨会期间将有充足的计划外时间，以便开始新的研究合作，并继续积极的合作。该研讨会将特别有利于本科生，研究生和早期职业研究人员，向他们介绍新的研究方向，并帮助他们与更资深的同事建立有价值的联系。组合数学和图论是离散数学领域中两个非常活跃的研究领域，与统计物理和代数等学科有着重要的联系。已确认的辅导演讲者，将帕金斯（格鲁吉亚理工学院）和斯蒂芬妮货车威利根堡（不列颠哥伦比亚省大学），将谈到他们自己在这些领域的一些最新突破。帕金斯将谈到组合数学，统计物理和理论计算机科学之间的相互作用，而货车Willigenberg将谈到的经典主题的色多项式和对称函数，然后对最近的概念，色对称函数，团结这些想法从图论和代数。欲了解更多信息，请参阅研讨会网站，https://sites.nd.edu/lmw8-2023/This奖反映了NSF的法定使命，并已被认为是值得通过使用基金会的智力价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估的支持。
