Conference: A Celebration of Algebraic Combinatorics

The conference ``A celebration of algebraic combinatorics'' takes place on June 3-7, 2024, at the Harvard Geological lecture hall at Harvard University. It covers many aspects of combinatorics, a field which was extensively developed by Richard Stanley through his work in algebraic, topological, geometric, and enumerative combinatorics. The conference presents a chance to bring together both experts in the field and early career mathematicians to learn about the latest developments in the field. The talks at the conference cover a range of topics, ranging from total positivity, symmetric functions, Schubert calculus, poset topology, polytopes, to cluster algebras, log-concavity, the dimer model, and connections with probability. Besides the talks, there are plans to have an open problem session.
