[DMANET] Announcement: Online Conference on Polytopes (6-9 April 2021)

With this email we announce the following conference:


(Polytop)ics: Recent advances on polytopes from April 6-9, 2021
Online hosted by Max Planck Institute for Natural sciences in Leipzig.

Further details including the list of invited speakers can be found on
the conference website:
https://www.mis.mpg.de/calendar/conferences/2021/polytopics2021.html

We hope this conference will be an opportunity for the community to come
together even in these distanced times! The focus is on important open
questions and recent results related to polytopes and beyond. Invited
speakers will give 45min talks and we additionally encourage younger
mathematicians to propose a short (25 min) talk. We will also have open
problem sessions, and we encourage participants to contribute an open
problem of interest. These will be accompanied by informal sessions to
discuss the problems, socialize, and meet other participants.

To register, submit a talk and/or contribute an open problem please
visit https://www.mis.mpg.de/cgi-bin/registration.pl?id=311

Deadline for proposing a talk is March 9th and for registration is March
30th.

Please feel free to share this email with interested mathematicians and
to contact us with any questions.

Hope to see you there!
The organizing committee,
Federico Castillo, Max Planck Institute for Natural sciences Leipzig
Giulia Codenotti, Goethe University Frankfurt
Benjamin Schröter, KTH Royal Institute of Technology
