The scientific program includes
* Complexity of algorithms
* Complexity of combinatorial structures
* Complexity of geometric structures
* Complexity of graphs and networks
The program is a joint initiative of scientists at the three major
Berlin universities
Freie Universität Berlin (FU)
Technische Universität Berlin (TU), and
Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin (HU).
Its faculty (see http://www.mi.fu-berlin.de/facets/people/faculty.html)

as well as adjoint and junior faculty.
The program of the Research Training Network includes a regular Monday
afternoon
colloquium, block courses, summer schools, research workshops, etc. -
all this in a very
lively Berlin discrete mathematics and algorithmics environment, which
also includes the
BERLIN MATHEMATICAL SCHOOL (http://www.math-berlin.de), the joint
international graduate
program of the three major Berlin universities. We offer a
family-friendly work
