Workshop on Constraint Systems: Distance Geometry, Structured Polynomials, Matrix Completion and Kinematics
August 8 - 11, 2023, The Fields Institute
Description
This workshop will showcase advances related to the Fields thematic program on geometric constraint systems, framework rigidity and distance geometry. Particular topics of interest include matrix and tensor product completions, kinematics and flexibility, polynomial constraint systems, structured polynomials including sums of squares, matrix factorizations, Euclidean distance minimization and maximum likelihood estimation.
In-person participants are welcome to propose contributed talks. We expect contributed talks to be around 20 minutes in length. Please send your title and abstract to
by the end of June 1st.
