Webpage of the 1-day joint workshop between the Freie Universität Berlin and Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya, held on 10th December 2025 at UPC, in the context of the bilateral project PCI2024-155080-2: SRC-ExCo- Structure, Randomness and Computational Methods in Extremal Combinatorics

Advanced coursed aimed at master and PhD students, postdoctoral researchers and faculty. The topic of the course is the recent results on thresholds, including the solutions of the Kahn-Kalai conjecture and the satisfiability conjecture, and discussion on the planted clique conjecture.

This reading group will cover the recent breakthrough solving Marton's conjecture (also known as the Polynomial Freiman Ruzsa (PFR) Conjecture). We will meet in Room C3-005 at Campus Nord (usual seminar room) on Thursdays at 14.30. Talks will be planned to be 1 hour with space for questions and discussion after.

Reading group that covers a new breakthrough in random discrete structures. We will cover related topics such as the switching lemma of Razborov and the Sunflower conjecture. We meet on Fridays at 11:00 in C3-005.

Master seminar centred on coding theory and coordinated by Prof. Simeon Ball in the Spring of 2021
