WORKSHOP DETAILS
The aim of the Workshop is to bring together researchers who have been using algebraic techniques to derive results about cocliques and graph homomorphisms. Participants will be exposed to the latest techniques and be able to decide which directions appear most fruitful, and identify which problems are likely to yield to the tools available.
