The “Shanks Workshop on Combinatorics and Graph Theory” will take place at Vanderbilt University, April 13-14, 2024. The focus of the workshop will be on structural graph theory, extremal combinatorics, graph coloring, Ramsey theory, and their intersections. The workshop will highlight significant recent achievements in these areas and provide a platform for researchers to share recent insights and tools, communicate their work, share open problems, and build new collaborations. The goals of the workshop are to (1) bring together researchers in combinatorics and graph theory to communicate and exchange ideas; (2) promote open problem-sharing and discussions among participants; (3) expose junior researchers to the latest developments in these areas; and (4) broaden and stimulate the research of junior, female, and underrepresented researchers.The field of combinatorics concerns problems and techniques in discrete settings. It is closely related to other areas of mathematics and has many applications ranging from evolutionary biology to computer science and from logic to statistical physics. Graph theory is one of the oldest parts of combinatorics, and it has numerous natural connections to other areas. The workshop will feature two plenary speakers and eight early-career speakers. Moreover, we plan to organize an open problem session and a discussion session that allows participants of the workshop to exchange insights and ideas on open problems that are relevant and interesting to the larger mathematics and computer science community. The workshop website is located at https://my.vanderbilt.edu/cgt2024/.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

“尚克斯组合学和图论研讨会”将于 2024 年 4 月 13 日至 14 日在范德比尔特大学举行。研讨会的重点将是结构图论、极值组合学、图着色、拉姆齐理论及其交叉研讨会。将突出这些领域最近取得的重大成就，并为研究人员提供一个分享最新见解和工具、交流他们的工作、分享开放问题和建立新合作的平台。 (1) 聚集组合学和图论领域的研究人员进行交流和交流；(3) 促进参与者之间的开放性问题共享和讨论；(4) 拓宽和交流这些领域的最新发展；刺激初级、女性和代表性不足的研究人员的研究。组合学领域涉及离散环境中的问题和技术，它与数学的其他领域密切相关，并且具有从进化生物学到计算机科学、从逻辑到统计物理学的许多应用。 .图论是最古老的理论之一组合数学的一部分，并且它与其他领域有许多天然的联系，研讨会将有两位全体演讲者和八位早期职业演讲者，此外，我们计划组织一个开放问题会议和一个讨论会议，让研讨会的参与者进行交流。对与更大的数学和计算机科学界相关且有趣的开放问题的见解和想法。该研讨会网站位于 https://my.vanderbilt.edu/cgt2024/。该奖项反映了 NSF 的法定使命，并被认为是值得的。支持的通过使用基金会的智力优点和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估。
