Statistical Mechanics and Combinatorics of Discrete Planar Structures
This thematic program will bring together experts for the study of discrete planar structures. Such structures play a prominent role in separate recent developments in combinatorics and probability (especially statistical mechanics) and within this program experts from both communities share their perspectives and aim to initiate new approaches to some of the most important problems at the intersection of these areas.
The program will last 7 weeks and feature an Introductory School and two one-week topical workshops, as well as several weeks with a light program to enable collaborations, reading groups and discussions among the participants.
Schedule:
Week 1, Sep 14-18: Introductory School - NB: fully booked
Week 2, Sep 21-25: Workshop 1: Statistical Mechanics: planar & beyond (co-organised by Nathanael Berestycki, Marcin Lis and Fabio Toninelli --- NB: fully booked
