The Dame Kathleen Ollerenshaw Combinatorics Day, Monday 10 July 2017 Time: 13:00-17:00 Venue: Frank Adams Room, Alan Turing Building, Manchester University, Oxford Road, Manchester M13 9PL The Day will focus on Gregory Cherlin's problem of classification of primitive binary permutation groups -- part of his wider programme of the study of relational complexity of permutation groups. Programme: 13:00 - 13:50 Gregory Cherlin (Rutgers University) The relational complexity of a permutation group: Theory and examples 14:00 - 14:50 Joshua Wiscons (California State University, Sacramento, USA) Reducing Cherlin?s Conjecture for finite primitive binary groups to the almost simple case 15:00 - 15:30 coffee break 15:30 -- up to 17:00 Nick Gill (University of South Wales, Treforest) Cherlin's conjecture for almost simple groups The meeting -- and Gregory Cherlin's visit to Manchester -- is made possible by Dame Kathleen Ollerenshaw's generous bequest to the School of Mathematics, University of Manchester.
