Combinatorics and Beyond

“组合学及以后”会议将于2018年11月8日至11日在密歇根大学安娜堡分校举行。会议的目的是聚集组合学中一些发展最快的部分的顶尖专家和年轻的研究人员，特别是包括舒伯特微积分、全正性和簇代数。会议的主要目的是加强研究人员之间的互动，向学生介绍这一研究领域。组织者特别注重吸引初级参与者，以及来自代表性不足群体的参与者。预计这次会议将有助于传播这些领域的新成果，并促成富有成效的互动和新的方向。会议的网站是https://math.berkeley.edu/~williams/FominFestThis奖，它反映了国家科学基金会的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的智力优势和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。

The conference "Combinatorics and Beyond" is to be held at the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor on the dates November 8-11, 2018. The aim of the meeting is to gather both leading experts and younger researchers in some of the most rapidly developing parts of combinatorics, including in particular Schubert calculus, total positivity, and cluster algebras. The main aim of the conference is to strengthen interaction between researchers and introduce students to this field of study. The organizers place particular attention on attracting junior participants, as well as participants from underrepresented groups. It is expected that the conference to aid the dissemination of new results in these areas and lead to fruitful interactions and new directions.
