Title : The method of hypergraph containers
Speaker : Wojciech Samotij (Tel Aviv University, Israel)
Abstract : Since the late eighties, there has been considerable interest in analogues of classical results in extremal combinatorics and Ramsey theory relative to random graphs and other discrete structures. Results of this kind had been proved using mostly ad-hoc methods until about ten years ago, when three general, powerful methods were developed and used to solve many outstanding questions in the area. In this course, I will present one of these methods and show how to apply it to a number of 'real-life' problems.

Title : Graph limits and flag algebras
Speaker : Andrzej Grzesik (Jagiellonian University, Poland)
Speaker : The mini-course will be focused on the flag algebra method that changed the landscape of extremal combinatorics and was used to solve or make substantial progress on many longstanding open problems. We will begin with an intuitive introduction to limits of dense graph sequences and the notion of a graphon. Then we will learn how the flag algebra method works and how to apply it to different extremal graph theory questions.
