Guttmann 2025 - 80 and (still) counting
From Monday 30 June to Tuesday 1 July, 2025 we held a conference in honour of Tony Guttmann on the occasion of his 80th birthday.
We celebrated Tony's research contributions to statistical mechanics, combinatorics, and mathematical physics, as well as his leadership in the broader mathematical sciences community.
It was hosted in hybrid face-to-face and online mode by the University of Melbourne, with a mixture of local and international participants from places including France, Germany, the UK, Canada, and the USA.
The program is available at the program page, with many talks available for download.
There are a few photos available at the gallery page.
