As part of the MIMUW colloquium, Adam Karczmarz will deliver a talk titled “Shortest paths, edge weights, and models of computation.” The talk will take place on January 22, 2026 at 2:30 PM in the Faculty Council Room (2180).

Two courses in the series of ALGOMANET will be held from June 30th to July 3rd at the Leipzig University:
• Matija Bucić (University of Vienna): Sublinear expander graphs
• Jinyoung Park (Courant Institute of Mathematical Sciences NYU): Asymptotic enumeration via graph containers and entropy.

PhD students from MIM UW (both maths and CS) are welcome to participate.
The courses can be used as an equivalent of a PhDOpen lecture.

Registration is open until the 20th of April.

To each and one of our students, emplyees, and friends - very happy Christas AD 2025 and a fruitful and satisfying New Year 2026!
