2017 Graduate Student Combinatorics Conference

研究生组合学会议(GSCC)将于2017年4月7日至9日在劳伦斯的堪萨斯大学举行。这将是第13届GSCC年度会议，该会议传统上由研究生组织，过去一直受益于NSF的支持。GSCC的重点是研究生研究报告，并将包括Sara Billey(华盛顿大学)和Jacques Verstraete(加州大学圣地亚哥分校)的主旨演讲。GSCC为组合学研究生提供了一个独特而宝贵的机会，让他们体验参加研究会议的好处。进行自己的演讲可以让研究生发展他们的教学和演讲技能，帮助他们作为初级研究人员进一步取得成功。组合数学是一个应用于许多学科的数学领域。这是一个充满活力的新的、创新的研究领域，可能涉及代数、几何、拓扑、概率、计算机科学和分析等领域的问题和技术。这次会议将使初级研究人员了解在这一活跃而令人兴奋的领域取得的进展。GSCC为研究生提供了一个很好的机会，通过与其他具有类似研究主题的年轻数学家见面，可以带来潜在的联合研究项目和未来合作的机会。网站：http://www.math.ku.edu/conferences/2017/GSCC/

The Graduate Student Combinatorics Conference (GSCC) will be held April 7-9, 2017 at the University of Kansas in Lawrence. This will be the 13th annual edition of the GSCC, which is traditionally organized by graduate students and has benefited greatly from NSF support in the past. The GSCC focuses on graduate student research presentations and will include keynote addresses by Sara Billey (University of Washington) and Jacques Verstraete (University of California, San Diego). The GSCC provides a unique and invaluable opportunity for graduate students in combinatorics to experience the benefits of taking part in a research conference. Giving their own presentations allows graduate students to develop their teaching and presentation skills, helping them further succeed as junior researchers. Combinatorics is a field of mathematics with applications to many disciplines. It is a vibrant area for new, innovative research that can involve problems and techniques within algebra, geometry, topology, probability, computer science, and analysis. This conference will keep junior investigators aware of the advances that have been made in this lively and exciting field. The GSCC provides a great opportunity for graduate students to network by meeting other young mathematicians with similar research topics that can lead to potential joint research projects and opportunities for future collaboration.Website: http://www.math.ku.edu/conferences/2017/GSCC/
