International Workshop & Conference on Combinatorial Matrix Theory and Generalized Inverses of Matrices At Manipal Institute of Technology, Manipal, Karnataka
About the Workshop and the Conference
Generalized Inverses of Matrices and Combinatorial Matrix Theory have established themselves as very important branches of Matrix Theory, having applications in several branches of science.
Developments in theory of generalized inverse resulted from applications in areas such as Statistics, Error Analysis, Electrical Engineering, Digital Signal Processing, Pattern Recognition, Neural Network, Markov chains and Magic Squares to name a few. Advances in combinatorial matrix theory were motivated by a wide range of subjects such as Networks, Chemistry, Genetics, Bioinformatics, Computer Science and Information Technology, etc. The two areas interact with each other, which is evident from the interplay between graphs and matrices. Generalized inverses of matrices such as the incidence matrix and the Laplacian matrix are mathematically interesting and have great practical significance.
The Workshop and the Conference are aimed at intensive discussions on these subjects and to introduce new innovations by providing a forum for leading mathematicians and applied mathematicians to come together.
The main objective of the workshop to be held during 02 – 07 January 2012 is to provide a solid foundation and motivation, to pursue research and teaching in the frontline area of ‘Matrix Theory and its Application’ with a special emphasis on theory and applications of “Combinatorial Matrix Theory and Generalized Inverses of Matrices”. The workshop is aimed at providing a platform for the young brains (students at Master’s level, research scholars and young scientists) to work together and have an exposure to lectures delivered by leading mathematicians across the world. Workshop consists of regular lectures sessions, tutorials and problem solving sessions. Special lectures on frontline research areas in the subject by eminent speakers from India and abroad will be arranged in the Workshop.
Topics covered in workshop are
* Combinatorial Matrix Theory and Applications
* Generalized Inverses of Matrices and Applications
* Linear Model & Error Analysis
The International Conference on the same theme, to be held during 10 – 11 January 2012, is in continuation of the workshop, aimed at providing a platform for leading mathematicians and applied mathematicians working in the area to come together and discuss several research issues related to the theme of “Combinatorial Matrix Theory and Generalized Inverses of Matrices” and their applications. The Conference will consist of plenary talks, invited talks and contributed talks.
