Atlanta Lecture Series in Combinatorics and Graph Theory

自2010年以来，埃默里大学，格鲁吉亚理工学院和格鲁吉亚州立大学已经举办了15个关于图论和组合学的亚特兰大系列讲座的小型会议。该奖项提供了支持，以继续这一系列的学年2015/2016，在2015年秋季和2016年春季两个会议。这些将分别在格鲁吉亚理工学院和格鲁吉亚州立大学举行。每次会议将有两个一小时的讲座，由一位杰出的研究人员，四个一小时的讲座，由主要来自东南地区的既定研究人员，和四个30分钟的会谈，由初级研究人员和研究生。该网站是在http://www.math.gsu.edu/~gchen/ALS17/ALS17.html.Combinatorics和图论经历了戏剧性的发展，在过去的几十年。在过去的15次会议上，主讲人是组合学和图论以下领域的主要专家：结构图论，极值图论，随机图和图形简化，超图和集合论，以及Szemeredi正则性引理。演讲者不仅有很好的性别平衡，而且还包括资深的知名研究人员和年轻的后起之秀。 该系列已成为东南地区及其他地区组合学社区的重大活动，为加强美国东南地区研究人员和机构之间的合作提供了机会。这两个小型会议将是该系列的延续。

Since 2010, Emory University, the Georgia Institute of Technology, and Georgia State University have hosted 15 mini-conferences of the Atlanta Lecture Series in Graph Theory and Combinatorics. This award provides support to continue this series for the academic year 2015/2016, with two more conferences in Fall 2015 and Spring 2016. These will be held at Georgia Institute of Technology and Georgia State University, respectively. Each conference will feature two one-hour lectures by one distinguished researcher, four one-hour lectures by established researchers mainly from the southeast region, and four 30-minute talks by junior researchers and graduate students. The website is at http://www.math.gsu.edu/~gchen/ALS17/ALS17.html.Combinatorics and graph theory have undergone dramatic development in the past few decades. For the previous 15 meetings, the featured speakers were leading experts in the following areas of combinaroics and graph theory: structural graph theory, extremal graph theory, random graphs and graph percolations, hypergraphs and set theory, and the Szemeredi regularity lemma. The speaker pool not only has a good gender balance but also consists of a nice blend of senior, well-known researchers and young rising stars. The series has become a major event for the combinatorics community in the southeast region and beyond, providing opportunities to strengthen collaborations among researchers and institutions within the southeast region of the United States. These two mini-conferences will be a continuation of the series.
