2019 Conference
During September 2019, Tenth Discrete Geometry and Algebraic Combinatorics Conference is organized by the School of Mathematical & Statistical Sciences of The University of Texas Rio Grande Valley. This event is being held on South Padre Island from September 23 to September 26 of 2019. The conference is a unique opportunity for geometry and combinatorics researchers to meet, share their specialized knowledge and learn from others.
The conference is supported by
