Impromptu combinatorics workshop

Theme: Group actions on graphs

We'll be holding an impromptu mini-workshop on Saturday Nov 10, 2012. The workshop will be loosely organized around the theme of "group actions on graphs", but will also stray to wider areas of combinatorics (particularly algebraic combinatorics) and/or group theory.

The workshop in part marks the occasion of the visit of Dragan Marušič, Štefko Miklavic, Aleksander Malnič, and Klavdija Kutnar from the University of Primorska, Slovenia.

Organizers:
  Ted Dobson dobson .at. math , msstate , edu
  Russ Woodroofe       rwoodroofe .at. math , msstate , edu

Location:
   All talks will be held in room 411 of Allen Hall, on the Mississippi State Campus. (see on Google Maps)

Tentative schedule:
   Invited talks will be 40 minutes, with 7 minutes for questions and 3 minutes between talks.
