Welcome!

This conference is jointly organized by Prof. Sebastian Rödl (Leipzig) and Prof. James Conant (Chicago).

The conference will take the form of a workshop: the papers will be distributed in advance, and will not be presented in the workshop itself. The workshop sessions will be devoted entirely to discussion of the pre-distributed papers, with the author of each paper responding to questions and objections.
