ABOUT THE WORKSHOP

Commutative Algebra and Combinatorics have experienced a significant development in recent decades, establishing several connections with other areas and developing powerful new computational techniques.

The objectives to be carried out with this initiative are:

  1. Presentation of the latest results of research on these topics: graded algebras and their invariants, algebraic properties of graphs, applications to Coding Theory, Groebner Bases.
  2. Discussion on open problems.

One of the days of the conference will be dedicated to Gaetana Restuccia, on the occasion of her 70th birthday.

TRAVEL INFORMATION

Messina is in the northeast of Sicily, Italy. It is only 5 km across the Straits of Messina to the region of Calabria on the mainland.






Get in
  • By boat: there are at least hourly ferries to Villa San Giovanni on the mainland and also several hydrofoils each day to Reggio di Calabria. Some days, visitors arrive by cruise ships, most frequently in the summer season. Ships often berth right downtown, within an easy walk to a popular piazza, dominated by the clock tower, and which is served by many tour buses and a hop-on/hop-off double-decked bus offering a modest overview of the waterfront portion of the city.

  • By train: Messina is Sicily's link to the main Italian train network. Long distance trains from Rome and Naples cross the Straits of Messina by ferry and continue on to Palermo and Catania. Regular regional trains also run to Milazzo, Cefalu, Taormina and Syracuse.

  • By bus: long-distance buses stop in Messina, linking Rome and Naples to Catania and Palermo. Regular buses also run to Taormina and Milazzo (for the Aeolian Islands).

  • From the Catania airport: SAIS AUTOLINEE (tel. +39 095 536168 or toll-free in Italy 800-211-020, http://www.saisautolinee.it).
