Description:
------------

This workshop, sponsored by AIM and the NSF, hopes to further
develop the use of nonstandard methods in combinatorial number theory
and Ramsey theory.  For example, recently nonstandard methods have
proven useful in problems about configurations of sumsets in sets of
positive density as well as partition regularity of equations.  Our
aim is to continue to explore these and other directions leading to
a greater understanding of the role that nonstandard methods could
play in this area of combinatorics. 

The workshop is organized by
Mauro Di Nasso, Isaac Goldbring, and Martino Lupini.

Space and funding is available for a few more participants.
If you would like to participate, please apply by filling
out the on-line form (available at the link above) no later
than March 14, 2017. Applications are open to all, and
we especially encourage women, underrepresented minorities,
junior mathematicians, and researchers from primarily
undergraduate institutions to apply.

AIM Research Conference Center:
--------------------------------

The American Institute of Mathematics (AIM) hosts focused
workshops in all areas of the mathematical sciences. AIM
focused workshops are distinguished by their emphasis on
a specific mathematical goal, such as making progress on a
significant unsolved problem, understanding the proof of an
important new result, or investigating the convergence between
two distinct areas of mathematics.
