International workshop on graphs, semigroups, and semigroup acts

October 10 - October 13, 2017, Berlin

ulrich

This conference brings together scholars from areas including but not restricted to: categories, semigroups, acts, monoids, algebraic graph theory, and mathematical modelling. In particular, we celebrate the 75th birthday of Ulrich Knauer, whose research over the years has been related to the above topics. The aim is to present and discuss current research in a friendly and intimate setting.


The workshop takes place at the Institute of Mathematics of the Technical University Berlin, Strasse des 17.Juni 136, Berlin. Talks will be in room MA043. Coffee breaks and registration will be in room MA144. Lunch is not included. There are two restaurants in the math building and many restaurants at a close walking distance. The conference dinner will take place Wednesday night at Die Stulle .
