International Workshop

This workshop is to be held in honour of Professor Rodney J. Baxter's 60th birthday. It will highlight Professor Baxter's pioneering contributions in exactly solved models in statistical mechanics which have inspired crucial developments in key areas of mathematical physics.

The workshop will encompass all topics and areas where Professor Baxter's work has been influential, including the most recent developments in exactly solved lattice models, integrable quantum field theory, quantum groups, knot theory, q-series, combinatorics and their applications in statistical physics.

The proceedings of the meeting will be published. The list of invited speakers includes:
