This workshop will include expository talks as well as presentations on current research on combinatorial problems raised by statistical mechanics. Topics of interest include: enumerative problems related to the classical models of statistical mechanics, algebraic methods related to functional equations, Mayer's theory and graph weights, Potts model on graphs, planar maps and 2-dimensional quantum gravity, Feynman diagrams, etc.

The meeting will be held at the CRM.

This workshop is preceeded by the School in Statistical Mechanics and Combinatorics.
