Program Description:

This workshop has two aims: to celebrate the careers of McKay and Wormald, and to provide participants with an opportunity for focused collaboration on open problems in the areas that McKay and Wormald have shaped, including random graph theory, asymptotic enumeration, Ramsey theory, algebraic graph theory and isomorphism testing. Participants will include many of McKay and Wormald’s academic descendants, former postdocs and principal collaborators.
