Geometric and Combinatorial Methods in the Foundations of Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence

Place: Mathematical Institute, Andrew Wiles Building, University of Oxford

Dates:  21 - 25 July 2025

Organisers: Michael Bronstein, Cornelia Drutu, Dawid Kielak, Alexander Lubotzky, Assaf Naor, Standa Zivny

Purpose

The purpose of the event is to gather together researchers in CS, AI and Mathematics, to establish a common language and a knowledge exchange on techniques and open problems.

It is supported by the Isaac Newton Institute in Cambridge and the Mathematical Institute in Oxford.

The workshop will benefit from the local Oxford expertise: the University of Oxford's Computer Science department has been ranked first in the world for several years now, and it is also at Oxford that an AI research hub is based.

The Mathematical Institute provides an outstanding maths research environment, both at the senior and at the junior level, covering all areas and in particular those relevant to CS and AI (Combinatorics, Number Theory, Geometry etc.)

Programme    

The programme will be composed of mini-courses, providing a survey of significant advances and open problems, research talks targeted to a joint audience of experts in Mathematics, Computer Science and AI and several discussion sessions lead by various experts with research interests at the interface of these fields.

Each day the schedule will be from 9:30 am to 5 pm, except for Friday when it is likely to be shorter. Timetable soon to be posted on the webpage.

The workshop is a satellite event of a programme held at the Isaac Newton Institute in Cambridge
