16-17 Feb 2018
Pisa, Italy
Dear all,
We are happy to announce the "Workshop on Ramsey Theory of Equations and
Related topics", that will take place the 16th and 17th of February 2018
at the Department of Mathematics, University of Pisa. The website of this
workshop is: https://ramseyequations.sciencesconf.org/. There you will be
able to register (registration is free) and you will find additional
informations.
AIMS: In 2016 two long standing open problems in Ramsey Theory of
equations and polynomial configurations have been solved: the Boolean
Pythagorean triples problem and the partition regularity of the
configuration {x,x+y,xy}. For this reason, problems regarding the
partition regularity of nonlinear Diophantine equations and polynomial
configurations are now in the spotlight of the mathematical community. An
interesting feature of this topic is that several different non-elementary
techniques, including ultrafilters, ergodic theory, nonstandard analysis,
semigroup theory and topological dynamics, can be used to solve problems
in this area. The aim of this Workshop is to present aspects of several of
these different techniques, as well as to discuss many interesting related
problems.
