Invitation to Reconfiguration - Part I
Org: Nicolas Bousquet (CNRS, Université de Lyon) and Anna Lubiw (University of Waterloo)
“Reconfiguration” is about changing one configuration to another via discrete steps, for example sorting a list by swapping pairs of adjacent elements, or changing one proper colouring of a graph to another by recolouring one vertex at a time. We may ask: Is there a reconfiguration path between any two configurations? How short a path? How efficiently can it be found? How many reconfiguration steps to a random configuration? These questions arise in various fields such as discrete geometry (flip distance), combinatorics (graph recoloring, token swapping), bio-informatics (phylogenetics), combinatorial game theory (puzzles), random sampling (Monte Carlo Markov chains), and combinatorial optimization (Hirsch’s conjecture). The talks in this minisymposium give a sample of recent results in these areas.
