Workshop Announcement: ---------------------------------------------------------------- Phase transitions in randomized computational problems ---------------------------------------------------------------- June 12 to June 16, 2017 American Institute of Mathematics Research Conference Center San Jose, California http://aimath.org/workshops/upcoming/phaserandom ------------ Description: ------------ This workshop, sponsored by AIM and the NSF, will be devoted to the study of random constraint satisfaction problems (CSPs), with an emphasis on threshold phenomena and related algorithmic challenges. The workshop is organized by Amir Dembo, Jian Ding, and Nike Sun. For more details please see the workshop announcement page: http://aimath.org/workshops/upcoming/phaserandom 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 January 7, 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.
