Introduction

The event (Learning Week 1 and 2nd workshop) was first planned on 23 March - 03 April 2020. However, due to Covid19 pandemic, it was cancelled with notifications sent to participants on 09 March 2020.

According to the uncertainty of travel restriction due to the pandemic, POEMA consortium has just decided to organize the learning weeks online from the end of May to September 2020. And the 2nd workshop was decided to take place on 26-27 November 2020 at CWI, Amsterdam. However, due to the situation of sanitary crises, this physical workshop has been changed to online event with a series of dates as following:

  • Tuesday 20 October 2020
  • Thursday 26 November 2020
  • Friday 27 November 2020
  • Friday 11 December 2020

The 2nd workshop is dedicated to the foundations of polynomial optimization. There will be talks in a broad range of topics by established expert researchers.


Venue

The 2nd workshop will be organized online. You can now REGISTER to attend this workshop.


Registration

The event is free. Please register to join us ! We will send you the connection details upon your registration.
