SAMSA Workshop

Warsaw

SAMSA Workshop

Workshop on Series, Automata, Matrices, Symbolic dynamics, and their Applications

to
Warsaw, Poland
Aim:

The aim of SAMSA is to bring together researchers working on weighted automata, matrix reachability, noncommutative power series and symbolic dynamics in order to identify common open problems and ways to attack them by techniques across the mentioned areas. The plan is to discuss recent results, emerging research directions, promising applications, open problems and stimulate cooperation among researchers working in these fields.

Topics:

Topics of interest include (but are not limited to):

  • weighted automata,
  • matrix reachability,
  • semigroups,
  • noncommutative power series,
  • symbolic dynamics,
  • linear recurrence sequences.

Program

Full details of the programme will follow.

The programme will consist of invited talks, tutorials, short contributed talks from participants and an open problem discussion.

Invited Speakers:
Participant talks:

We encourage contributed talks which do not fit in the format of more formal conferences, such as:

  • Reports on failed attempts
  • Presentations of old results that did not receive enough attention
  • Open-ended potential research directions
  • Unexpected connections between different areas
  • Open problems and possible lines of attack
Talks on recent results are also welcome.
