MEETING ON COMBINATORICS AND STATISTICAL MECHANICS
 

Oxford-Warwick-London meeting on Combinatorics and Statistical Mechanics

You are invited to attend an afternoon meeting on "Combinatorics and Statistical Mechanics", to be held at Queen Mary, University of London, 11 November 2005.

Invited Speakers:
Thomas Prellberg (Queen Mary)
Andrew Rechnitzer (University of Melbourne)
Christoph Richard (Universität Bielefeld)

All are welcome, and we can provide some financial support for students to attend. Students wanting to claim support should bring travel receipts.


Programme

2:00-3:00 Thomas Prellberg "Combinatorial Enumeration of Two-Dimensional Vesicles - a Review" abstract slides
