Conference in the memory of Philippe Flajolet
Philippe Flajolet suddenly passed away from cancer on March 22, 2011. He was 62 and full of scientific projects.
- Date : 14/12/2011 to 16/12/2011
- Place : Amphi 25, Place Jussieu, Paris
- Organisers : Frédérique Bassino, Mireille Bousquet-Mélou, Brigitte Chauvin, Julien Clément, Cyril Nicaud, Bruno Salvy, Robert Sedgewick, Michèle Soria, Wojciech Szpankowski, Brigitte Vallée
In this conference, we wish to pay homage to the man as well as the multi-faceted mathematician and computer-scientist. *We think that this conference will also help more people understand his rich and varied work, through talks aimed at a large audience.
The first afternoon will be devoted to testimonies and official talks. The next two days will be dedicated to scientific talks. These talks are intended to people who want to learn about Philippe Flajolet’s work, and will be given mostly by co-authors of Philippe. In 30 minutes, they will give a pedagogical introduction to his work, identify his main ideas and contributions and possibly show their evolution. Most of the talks will form a basis for an introduction to the corresponding chapter in Philippe Flajolet's collected works, to be edited soon.
For organizational reasons, please register very soon.
