Welcome Dong Yeap Kang (강동엽), a new member of the IBS Extremal Combinatorics and Probability Group

The IBS discrete mathematics group welcomes Dr. Dong Yeap Kang (강동엽), a new research fellow at the IBS Extremal Combinatorics and Probability Group from June 16, 2023. Dr. Kang received his Ph.D. from the Department of Mathematical Science at KAIST in 2020 under the supervision of Prof. Sang-il Oum. Before joining the IBS Extremal Combinatorics and Probability Group, he was a research fellow at the University of Birmingham. He won the IBS Young Scientist Fellowship.

Invited minisymposium on the structural graph theory at CanaDAM2023

Sang-il Oum and Sebastian Wiederrecht organized an invited minisymposium at the CanaDAM 2023 (Canadian Discrete and Algorithmic Mathematics) held in Winnipeg, Canada on June 5-8, 2023. Here is the list of speakers for the minisymposium.

  • Paul Wollan (Sapienza University of Rome): “Tree decompositions into subgraphs of bounded radius”
  • Jan Kurkofka (University of Birmingham): “Canonical decompositions of 3-connected graphs”
  • Stephan Kreutzer (Technische Universität Berlin): “Towards a structure theorem for digraph minors”
  • Sebastian Wiederrecht (IBS Discrete Mathematics Group): “Universal obstructions in graph minors”
  • Youngho Yoo (Texas A&M University): “Erdős-Pósa property in undirected group-labelled graphs”
  • Eunjung Kim (LAMSADE, Université Paris-Dauphine): “When twin-width is the right measure”
  • Chun-Hung Liu (Texas A&M University): “Minor-closed families are defectively perfect”
  • Raphael Steiner (ETH Zürich): “Digraphs of large out-degree: problems and new results”
  • J. Pascal Gollin (IBS Discrete Mathematics Group): “A structural theory for odd minors”

Suyun Jiang (江素云) gave a talk on the maximum number of edges in a connected graph without a fixed tree at the Discrete Math Seminar

On May 30, 2023, Suyun Jiang (江素云) from Jianghan University gave a talk on the maximum number of edges in a connected graph without a fixed tree at the Discrete Math Seminar. She is currently a visiting scholar at the IBS Extremal Combinatorics and Probability Group. The title of her talk was “How connectivity affects the extremal number of trees.”

The MATRIX-IBS Workshop “Structural Graph Theory Downunder III” was held from April 17 to April 23

The MATRIX-IBS Workshop “Structural Graph Theory Downunder III” was held from April 17, 2023 to April 23, 2023 at Creswick, Victoria, Australia. This program is supported by MATRIX and the Discrete Mathematics Group (DIMAG) of the Institute for Basic Science (IBS, Korea). MATRIX is a residential research institute for the mathematical sciences in Australia.
