The meeting aims at bringing together researchers from statistical mechanics, mathematical physics, and mathematics to exchange their views and join forces to treat various problems in the field of exactly solvable models and cooperative phenomena, and to study manifestations of different degrees of ordering in statistical systems, ranging from perfectly ordered to disordered. During the seminar, young researchers will work together with experienced scientists from these fields, do independent research, and initiate joint research projects. The workshop is intended to display the current trends in cooperative phenomena in a broader perspective and highlight the central themes of the seminar.
