Hyperplane Arrangements: combinatorial and geometric aspects
Bochum (Germany)
Thursday, February 21 and Friday, February 22, 2013
The intention of this meeting is to provide a forum on new developments in the theory of hyperplane arrangements, specifically for reflection arrangements. The contributions by international leading experts will concentrate on geometric, combinatorial and computational aspects.
