Description:
Matrices with entries consisting only of zeros and ones, whose entry sums of rows and columns are constrained, play an active role in modern mathematics and its applications, extending far beyond their natural context of Matrix Theory, Combinatorics or Graph Theory. The purpose of this meeting is to bring together mathematicians from different areas with a view to exploring a number of new properties on the set A(R,S), whose insertion tableau has a previously-fixed shape, and identifying fruitful avenues for further research. In spite of their extremely demanding nature, recent developments and procedures have evidenced a remarkable elegance and beauty, strengthening the interdisciplinary approach of the issue. It is the purpose of this meeting to attract more mathematicians to this exciting and important area, and to foster collaborations with other scientific users.
