We apologize for the inconvenience.

Description
The seminar is devoted to the study of elegant, efficient, practial, interesting,
classical and non-classical algorithms, including in particular algorithms with
no apparent relationship to symbolic computation.
The main emphasis will be put on algorithms that are typically not covered by
introductory lectures or textbooks on algorithms, but which nevertheless are
of general interest.
Also little-known aspects of well-known algorithms are potential topics of the
seminar.
Only algorithms whose understanding requires a substantial
amount of external background knowledge are excluded from consideration.
Algorithms from various areas will be discussed. For instance:
- combinatorial algorithms
- algorithms for graphs and trees
- optimization algorithms
- graphical algorithms
- matching algorithms
- randomized algorithms
- coding and compression algorithms
- parsing algorithms
- ...
Typically, at each meeting there will be a self-contained presentation of some algorithm.
Depending on the algorithm and on the interest of the audience,
the focus of the discussion might be on complexity analysis,
comparison to related algorithms,
data structures,
implementation details,
or applications.
