Abstract

We are organizing the International Conference and PhD-Master Summer School on Groups and Graphs, Designs and Dynamics (G2D2). The main goal of this event is to bring together researchers from different fields of mathematics and its applications mainly based on group theory, graph theory, design theory and theory of dynamical systems. All scientific activities will take place in the Three Gorges Mathematical Research Center at China Three Gorges University (Yichang, China) during August 12 – 25, 2019. The scientific program consists of the G2D2-Conference and the G2D2-Summer School according to the G2D2-Timetable. Selected papers based on talks in G2D2 will be published in a special issue of The Art of Discrete and Applied Mathematics. G2D2 is concerned with various aspects of mathematics, especially those relating to simple structures and simple processes. We believe that G2D2 is a good chance for experts and students to exchange ideas and enrich their mathematical horizons. Four minicourses and four colloquium talks will let participants see order and simplicity from possibly new perspectives and share insights with experts. We will also schedule invited talks (45 minutes) and contributed talks (20 minutes) with topics ranging from coding theory, design theory, ergodic theory, graph theory, group theory, matrix theory, optimization theory, and quantum information theory to symbolic dynamics. As a satellite workshop to G2D2, a minisymposium on discrete dynamical systems will be organized at Shanghai Jiao Tong University (800 Dongchuan Road, Shanghai) during August 26 – 28, 2019.
