This workshop is a satellite meeting of the programme Analysis on Graphs and its Applications at the Isaac Newton Institute from 8 January to 29 June 2007. It will consider problems arising at the interfaces of number theory, combinatorics, discrete groups, random walk theory, fractal theory, as well as mathematical physics and spectral geometry. Among the areas addressed will be in particular spectral theory on graphs, amenability of discrete groups, zeta-functions on graphs, and analysis on fractals.
Embedded in the workshop, on Wednesday the 30th of May, will be a South West and South Wales Regional Meeting of the LMS, at which M. Aizenman (Princeton) and T. Sunada (Meija University, Japan) will speak. Speakers and Details for LMS Meeting are on the LMS website.
