[DMANET] 27th POC Seminar on Dec 15th - "Recent progress and interesting facts about the Simplex Algorithm"

Dear colleagues,

We are happy to announce the upcoming 27th Seminar of the POC group (the
French Polyhedra and Combinatorial Optimization group) on December 15th at
the ESSEC Business School campus at La Défense (Paris).

The POC group (Polyhèdres et Optimization Combinatoire) is a group
transversal to various French research laboratories (LAMSADE, LIMOS, LIPN,
ESSEC, etc.) which welcomes academics but also colleagues from companies
(such as Orange and EDF) brought together by the interest towards the
polyhedral (both theoretical and algorithmic) aspects of combinatorial
optimization problems. The group organizes two seminars per year (SPOC) on
topics complementary to the group's themes, as well as JPOC (
https://jpoc13.sciencesconf.org) and ISCO (
https://www.lamsade.dauphine.fr/~isco).

The topic of this edition of SPOC is "Recent progress and interesting facts
about the Simplex Algorithm" and it will include the talks of some
distinguished experts in the field such as:

Xavier Allamigeon (INRIA / CMAP, École Polytechnique, France)
Daniel Dadush (CWI Institute, Netherlands)
Sophie Huiberts (CNRS / LIMOS, France)
Quentin Louveaux (Institut Montefiore, Université de Liège, Belgium)

Even after more than 50 years, the Simplex algorithm is a topic of great
interest and discovery. Our speakers will share their insights, recent
findings, and perspectives on this algorithm.

Your participation will contribute to the success of this event, and we
look forward to your presence. Stay tuned for the detailed schedule, talk
titles and other details, which we will be sharing shortly, and Save the
Date!

We hope to see you at SPOC 27 for an exciting seminar!

Best regards,
Emiliano Lancini and Diego Delle Donne,
On behalf of the SPOC 27 Organizing Committee
