Graz Combinatorics Seminar WS2020-SS2025

The Graz Combinatorics Seminar is organised by the Combinatorics Group at the Institute of Discrete Mathematics at TU Graz since 2020. It continues the traditions of the Graz Combinatorics and Optimization Seminar (2016-2019) and the Graz Discrete Mathematics and Optimization Seminar (2012-2015).


The seminar usually took place on Fridays at 12:30-13:30 (talk, discussion, and questions) virtually or in the seminar room STEG050 (AE06) on the ground floor (EG) of the Mathematics Building at Steyrergasse 30 at the Campus Neue Technik of TU Graz. The seminar room STEG050 (AE06) is equipped with four blackboards, one digital projector, and a video conference system.
