Combinatorics
Research interests
The interests of the group are spread across a very wide range of combinatorics and related areas. More details can be found on our members' individual webpages - visit Who's who in Combinatorics.
Activities
There is a combinatorial theory graduate seminar on most Tuesdays during term at 1400hrs. Links to the full series listing and the next talk are below:
Alex Scott is the organiser of the seminar.
Oxford Discrete Mathematics and Probability Seminar (ODMAP)
ODMAP has been running since March 2020 online, and there are usually two seminars each term. The meetings are organised by Christina Goldschmidt and Alex Scott. Details of the talks, how to join the mailing list, as well as past talk listings, can be found on the ODMAP website. Watch previous seminars on YouTube.
An occasional series running during term time.
One Day Meeting in Combinatorics
The annual One Day Meeting in Combinatorics runs every year in May or June. If you have any questions about the event, please contact Alex Scott.
This year's event will be held in the Mathematical Institute, University of Oxford on Tuesday 21 May 2024. Anyone interested is welcome to attend, and no registration is required. View the programme here.
The last meeting was on 24 May 2023 at the Mathematical Institute (details of previous meetings can be found here).
Useful Links
The group is based at the Mathematical Institute, University of Oxford. Instructions on how to reach the Institute can be found here.
Information about vacancies at the Oxford University Mathematical Institute can be found here.

Alexander Scott: Graphs of large chromatic number
The International Congress of Mathematicians 2022 took place online. Held every four years, it is, of course, where Fields Medals are handed out. It is also where mathematicians are invited to give lectures in various categories, and in 2022 Alex Scott was so honoured.
