Elias Tsigaridas visited the Computer Science Department of Aarhus University, Denmark (28 May - 3 June) and gave a talk on random polynomials. He participated in ISSAC 2012 (July 22-25, 2012) in Grenoble, France and gave a talk on real solving polynomials with coefficients in multiple extension fields. He visited (23 Oct – 4 Noe) the Chinese Academy of Sciences, Beijing, China, as an invited speaker for the workshop Computational Geometry of the Asian Symposium on Computer Mathematics (ASCM), where he gave a talk on “Univariate Real Root Isolation in Extension Field and Applications to Topology of Curves”. During his stay in China, he was also invited to give a talk at Institute of Software of the State Key Lab of Computer Science, about random polynomials. He was invited at the Department of Applied Mathematics, Univ. of Crete, Greece (15 Jun – 2 Jul) and gave a talk at the department's seminar about random polynomials. He participated and gave a talk in 7th Athens Colloquium on Algorithms and Complexity (ACAC) in Athens, Greece (27–28 July) on solving polynomials with coefficients on an extension field. He participated in the conference Computer Algebra in Scientific Computing (CASC) that was held in September 3 - 6, at Maribor, Slovenia. He visited in the North Carolina State University, USA (15 – 20 Oct) where he gave a talk at the Department's Symbolic Computation seminar with title “Real algebraic geometry and stochastic games”. He participated in the Mathematics, Algorithms and Proofs 2012 (MAP) workshop of the GEOLMI ANR project (Univ. Konstanz, Germany, September 17 - September 21, 2012). Finally, he was invited to give a talk in the X-mas seminar of the ERGA lab of the Dept. of Informatics, Univ. of Athes, Greeece (27 December 2012) on real solving polynomials in the presence of logarithms.
