August 30, 2021
Online via Zoom

===============================================================================
As a part of the research project "Fusion of Computer Science, Engineering and Mathematics Approaches for Expanding Combinatorial Reconfiguration" (head
investigator: Takehiro Ito), we are going to organize Workshop "Combinatorial Reconfiguration in Discrete and Computational Geometry" via Zoom on August 30
(based on European Timezone).
Webpage of the research project: https://core.dais.is.tohoku.ac.jp/en/
A basic idea is to share fundamental concepts and recent trends of combinatorial reconfiguration problems that arise in discrete and computational geometry and
identify future research directions. In discrete and computational geometry, metric and topological properties concerning flips and compatibility of several
geometric structures have been discussed; theory and algorithms for reconfiguration in robotics and nanomanufacturing have been studied; several questions
involving continuous deformations in topology have been investigated through the algorithmic lens. This workshop aims at the broad audience of discrete
mathematics and theoretical computer science, who wish to learn and work on this active research area.
The program will be exclusively composed of invited talks. Each talk is planned to span one hour, including discussion.
*Registration*
