The goal of our combinatorial coworkspace is to give a group of motivated young and promising as well as established mathematicians a place to explore new directions, applications, cooperations, and alliances within combinatorics and beyond. A context is provided by a suitable number of tutorials and lectures and the beautiful location encourages to take mathematical thoughts outdoors.
Participation is by invitation only.
