SE: Discrete Mathematics/Geometry (Summer 2065)
This seminar covers topics in discrete geometry adjacent to the courses in Discrete Geometry I/II/III.
It addresses students who want to write a Bachelor or Master Thesis on a topic in discrete mathematics/geometry.
The seminar is organized as a block seminar.
The second meeting will take place on Tuesday, 12 May, at 14:00 in EN 058.
If you did not attend the first meeting but are still interested, please join that meeting.
ATTENTION: NEW ROOM!
The presentations will be held in IMoS 3003 on Thursday, 02 July 2026.
