[DMANET] Workshop on Algebraic Complexity Theory (WACT 2014)

Workshop on Algebraic Complexity Theory - WACT 2014

Saarland University, Saarbrücken, Germany
March 24-28, 2014

On 24-28 March 2014, Saarland University hosts the Workshop on Algebraic
Complexity Theory - WACT 2014.
WACT 2013 was held in Aarhus, Denmark.

Algebraic Complexity Theory is a classical subfield of computational
complexity theory.
In recent years, the field has been the subject of an intense revival.
The purpose of this workshop is to bring together world leading experts
within algebraic complexity with
the aim of discussing the current state of the art and setting the
directions for the future.

Confirmed invited speakers are:

V. Arvind – The Institute of Mathematical Sciences, Chennai
Peter Bro Miltersen - Aarhus University
Neeraj Kayal - Microsoft Research India
Pascal Koiran – ENS Lyon
Meena Mahajan - The Institute of Mathematical Sciences, Chennai
Chandan Saha - Indian Institute of Science, Bangalore
Nitin Saxena - IIT Kanpur
Amir Sphilka – Technion
Thomas Thierauf - Aalen University
Chris Umans - Caltech
