Séminaires : Phd Seminar - Séminaire des doctorant.e.s

Le séminaire des doctorant.e.s est l'occasion pour les doctorant.e.s de présenter des résultats et des problématiques dignes d'intérêt devant un public de non-spécialistes. L'ambiance y est informelle ; poser des questions naïves est encouragé, et les questions moins naïves sont bienvenues dans la mesure où elles n'entravent pas le bon déroulement de l'exposé.

Chaque jeudi à 18h, en alternance entre Jussieu et Sophie Germain.

The PhD seminar is an opportnuity for PhD students to present results and topics worthy of interest in front of a non-specialist audience. The mood is informal ; asking naive questions is highly encouraged and less naive questions are also welcomed, as long as they don't intefere with the smoothness of the talk.

Every Thursday at 6pm, alternating between Jussieu and Sophie Germain.

Certain families of combinatorial objects (such as non-intersecting lattice paths, tilings, and alternating sign matrices) admit explicit enumeration formulas, often expressed as determinants or simple product formulas. These formulas are often explained by the notion of integrability, which originates in mathematical physics. In this talk, I will try to give a broad picture of what falls under the category of integrable combinatorics, present some concrete examples of integrable models, explain their connections with models from physics, and show some techniques to compute exact formulas.
