The Travelling Salesman Problem can play a crucial role in demonstrating whether or not focused efforts on a single, possibly unsolvable, model will produce results beyond our expectations. We will discuss the history of the TSP and its applications, together with computational efforts towards exact and approximate solutions. Find out more here.
Two consecutive one-day events hosted by QMUL and LSE, on May 10-11, 2023. This year sees the sixteenth year of the Colloquia in Combinatorics: each year, we present a dozen talks covering a wide range of topics of interest to all those working in combinatorics or related fields.
