• 1528 - Explicit Methods in Number Theory 

      [OWR-2015-32] Workshop Report 2015,32 (2015) - (05 Jul - 11 Jul 2015)
      The aim of the series of Oberwolfach meetings on ‘Explicit methods in number theory’ is to bring together people attacking key problems in number theory via techniques involving concrete or computable descriptions. Here, ...
    • 1506 - Geometric and Algebraic Combinatorics 

      [OWR-2015-5] Workshop Report 2015,5 (2015) - (01 Feb - 07 Feb 2015)
      The 2015 Oberwolfach meeting “Geometric and Algebraic Combinatorics” was organized by Gil Kalai (Jerusalem), Isabella Novik (Seattle), Francisco Santos (Santander), and Volkmar Welker (Marburg). It covered a wide variety ...
    • 1545a - Mini-Workshop: Friezes 

      [OWR-2015-48] Workshop Report 2015,48 (2015) - (01 Nov - 07 Nov 2015)
      Frieze patterns were introduced in the early 1970s by Coxeter. They are infinite arrays of numbers in which every four neighbouring entries always satisfy the same arithmetic relation. Amazingly, friezes appear in many ...
    • 1508a - Mini-Workshop: Ideals of Linear Subspaces, Their Symbolic Powers and Waring Problems 

      [OWR-2015-9] Workshop Report 2015,9 (2015) - (15 Feb - 21 Feb 2015)
      It is a fundamental challenge for many problems of significant current interest in algebraic geometry and commutative algebra to understand symbolic powers $I^{(m)}$ of homogeneous ideals $I$ in polynomial rings, particularly ...
    • 1517a - Multivariate Splines and Algebraic Geometry 

      [OWR-2015-21] Workshop Report 2015,21 (2015) - (19 Apr - 25 Apr 2015)
      Multivariate splines are effective tools in numerical analysis and approximation theory. Despite an extensive literature on the subject, there remain open questions in finding their dimension, constructing local bases, and ...
