Preface

The 82nd Meeting of the Séminaire Lotharingien de Combinatoire took place in the Hotel das Termas da Curia, from April 14 to April 17, 2019. It was the second time that the Séminaire met in Portugal (and the second time in Curia).

Wednesday afternoon was added to the programme to allow for enough time to those coming far from here. Participants were expected to arrive for dinner on Sunday and leave after breakfast on Thursday.

The two series of main lectures were given by

François BERGERON (Université de Québec à Montréal)
"Schur Positivity and Recent Trends in Algebraic Combinatorics"

and

Thomas LAM (University of Michigan, Ann Arbor)
"Total Positivity"

We are grateful to CMUC (Centre for Mathematics of University of Coimbra), CEAFEL (Center for Functional Analysis, Linear Structures and Applications), CMUP (Centro de Matemática da Universidade do Porto), FCT (Fundação para a Ciência e a Tecnologia), for their substantial financial support; and to the Department of Mathematics, Faculty of Science and Technology, University of Coimbra, for the generous organisational support.

Finally, we wish to thank the speakers, all those who proposed talks which however could not be put on the programme because of limited time, and all the participants, who, together, made this edition of the Séminaire a significant success.
