O-joung Kwon (권오정), Graph minor theory and beyond
Room 1501, Bldg. E6-1, KAISTOne of the important work in graph theory is the graph minor theory developed by Robertson and Seymour in 1980-2010. This provides a complete description of the class of graphs that do not contain a fixed graph H as a minor. Later on, several generalizations of H-minor free graphs, which are sparse, have been defined …
Amadeus Reinald, Twin-width and forbidden subdivisions
Room B332 IBS (기초과학연구원)Twin-width is a recently introduced graph parameter based on vertex contraction sequences. On classes of bounded twin-width, problems expressible in FO logic can be solved in FPT time when provided with a sequence witnessing the bound. Classes of bounded twin-width are very diverse, notably including bounded rank-width,
Chengfei Xie, On the packing densities of superballs in high dimensions
Zoom ID: 870 0312 9412 (ibsecopro) [CLOSED]The sphere packing problem asks for the densest packing of nonoverlapping equal-sized balls in the space. This is an old and difficult problem in discrete geometry. In this talk, we give a new proof for the result that for

Xizhi Liu, Hypergraph Turán problem: from 1 to ∞
Zoom ID: 870 0312 9412 (ibsecopro) [CLOSED]One interesting difference between (nondegenerate) Graph Turán problem and Hypergraph Turán problem is that the hypergraph families can have at least two very different extremal constructions. In this talk, we will look at some recent progress and approaches to constructing hypergraph families with at least two different extremal constructions. Based on some joint work with …
Eric Vigoda, Computational phase transition and MCMC algorithms
Room B332 IBS (기초과학연구원)This talk will highlight recent results establishing a beautiful computational phase transition for approximate counting/sampling in (binary) undirected graphical models (such as the Ising model or on weighted independent sets). The computational problem is to sample from the equilibrium distribution of the model or equivalently approximate the corresponding normalizing factor known as the partition function. We show that when correlations die …

Jinyoung Park (박진영), Thresholds 1/2
Room B332 IBS (기초과학연구원)Thresholds for increasing properties of random structures are a central concern in probabilistic combinatorics and related areas. In 2006, Kahn and Kalai conjectured that for any nontrivial increasing property on a finite set, its threshold is never far from its "expectation-threshold," which is a natural (and often easy to calculate) lower bound on the threshold. …
