graduate students' reading seminar -- Not this week
by Robert Samal 30 Oct '23

30 Oct '23

Reminder: this week there is no seminar. Enjoy your sports events on Thursday! https://www.mff.cuni.cz/en/internal-affairs/dean-s-day/2023 And if you will have some extra time for reading, perhaps you will find some useful advice on an interesting page by top mathematician Terry Tao. https://terrytao.wordpress.com/career-advice/ R -- Robert Šámal IÚUK MFF UK -- CSI of Charles University

Hi all, This week we will have Tomáš Hons presenting his talk from this year's Eurocomb conference. So come and learn about the exciting world of converging graphs, where calculus, combinatorics and logic are combined. We will start at 10:40 this week for one more time. Next week there will be the dean's sport day and after that we will move to the regular schedule, starting at 9:50. R -- Robert Šámal IÚUK MFF UK -- CSI of Charles University

graduate students' reading seminar (doktorandsky seminar) -- first meeting Oct 5, 10:40 in S8
by Robert Samal 11 Oct '23

11 Oct '23

(tldr: reserve in your schedule Thursday 9:50-12:10 for the seminar) Dear all, The graduate students' reading seminar is for PhD students at KAM & IUUK, who work in cs and/or discrete mathematics. The seminar meets on Thursday 9:50-12:10. This semester in S8. This semester it is run by me and Pavel Valtr. We will start Oct 5 with an organizational meeting (selection of papers & dates, but also an open discussion about possible improvements to the seminar format, etc.). The first meeting will start at 10:40 (in room S8). Typically, each meeting we learn about one paper from one of the participants. The papers are carefully preselected, so that hopefully we can learn from them something useful -- be it a new technique, important recent definition and development, or possibly more of these together. The person presenting the paper shall read it in advance. For each of the papers there will be a "mentor" who will be glad to help you decide what to present and how. More about this in the first meeting. The seminar has a web page at https://kam.mff.cuni.cz/~dsemweb/ At this time you will find here a history of past years and some papers to select from -- many more will be added at the first meeting. If you are unsure about what paper to choose, you may also discuss it with your advisor. He or she may also suggest a paper especially for you -- this is certainly possible and welcome, pending confirmation by the seminar organizers -- to check if the paper is suitable (that is, interesting also for people who would not be directly working on the topic of the paper). Further information about the seminar will be sent to the email list dokt-seminar-l(a)kam.mff.cuni.cz, to which you can subscribe at https://kam.mff.cuni.cz/mailman3/postorius/lists/dokt-seminar-l.kam.mff.cun… This email is sent also to all PhD students for the sake of the new students and those that missed the seminar before. If you've read the whole email, my respect and appreciation! See you at the seminar! Robert -- Robert Šámal IÚUK MFF UK -- CSI of Charles University
