Workshop: Mathematics of Large Networks
Description
May 9-13, 2022
The idea of the Mathematics of Large Networks Workshop is to bring together mathematicians and network scientists with the aim of fostering the exchange of ideas. The speakers and the audience will also consist of researchers coming from these two communities. The main themes of the Workshop include geometry of networks, dynamics of/on networks, higher order structures, network inference and applications.
Invited speakers:
- Albert-László Barabási (Northeastern University/CEU)
- David Gamarnik (MIT)
- James Gleeson (Limerick)
- Peter Mörters (Cologne)
- Sofia Olhede (EPFL)
- Tiago Peixoto (CEU)
- Gergely Röst (University of Szeged)
- Thomas Sauerwald (Cambridge)
- Tamás Vicsek (Eötvös Loránd University)
