		Week 1 Topic Graph Partitions July 10 - 14, 2000 Chair: Christopher Rodger, Auburn University, rodgec1@mail.auburn.edu Announcement Schedule Speakers & Participants Abstracts

Week one will focus on the topic of Graph Partitions. This gives a lot of freedom in the topics that will be presented. For example, it is expected that there will be strong representation by people working in all sorts of colorings (edge, vertex and total), as well as on graph decompositions (cycle systems, path coverings, cube partitions, etc).

Such a wide area of study was deliberately chosen to allow for participants to be exposed to a variety of applications, and to increase the likelihood of applying our own research techniques to other related areas. Hopefully, lively discussions will follow!
