Preface

The 58th Séminaire Lotharingien de Combinatoire was held from March 18 to 21, 2007 at Domaine des Hautannes, St.Germain au Mont d'Or, a small town in the north of Lyon.

The main speakers of this session were:

Frédéric CHAPOTON (Université Claude Bernard Lyon 1)
and
Hjalmar ROSENGREN (Chalmers University of Technology).

They gave, respectively, three lectures on the topics "Operads and Algebraic Combinatorics of Trees" and "Applications of Pfaffians in Number Theory and Combinatorics."

The seminar was followed by a "Groupe de travail jeunes chercheurs en Combinatoire Algébrique" within the program GDR - Informatique Mathématique, March 21-22, 2007.

Three introductory lectures were given by:

Contributed talks:

Olga AZENHAS: Fundamental symmetry identical involutions: a conjecture by Pak and Vallejo

Eric BABSON: Moduli of marked representations of path algebras

Roland BACHER: On the interpolation groups

Alexander BURSTEIN: On some properties of permutation tableaux

Yona CHERNIAVSKY: On adjoint orbits in symplectic algebras, quadratic forms and involutions

Emanuele DELUCCHI: Combinatorial remarks on a classical theorem of eligne

Thomas FEIERL: The average height of p-watermelons with wall

Dominique FOATA: Fix-Mahonian calculus

David GARBER: Recursions for excedance numbers in some permutation groups
