DAIMI Workshop on Algebraic Complexity Theory
----------------------------------------------------------------------

The main open problem in algebraic complexity theory is Valiant's
Hypothesis, which states that the algebraic complexity classes VP and
VNP are distinct. The intention of the workshop is to provide a forum
for practitioners in the field to review the current state of affairs,
and assess avenues for making progress on Valiant's Hypothesis and
similar challenging problems regarding algebraic computation.

Plenary Speakers: Manindra Agrawal,
                  Pascal Koiran,
                  Ketan Mulmuley,
                  B.V. Raghavendra Rao,
                  Nicolas Ressayre,
                  Jayalal Sarma.

Organizers: Maurice Jansen,
            Peter Bro Miltersen.
